10 Reasons Not to Move to Houston
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 лип 2024
- What's it like living in Houston? Well it's hot and humid, just like most of Texas, and is actually the largest city in the Lone Star State, although the Dallas Fort Worth metropolitan area is actually slightly bigger. It's also, along with DFW, Austin, San Antonio and Houston Suburbs, one of the fastest growing and best cities to live in America. If so many people are moving to Texas, and there is a cheap cost of living, then why shouldn't you live in Houston, TX.

As I look at you 2, it's very obvious you two were made for one another. Beautiful couple!
I moved to Houston in August 2022 and I am looking to MOVE OUT of Houston within the next 6 months.
OCT 2022 I got in my first car accident EVER in life.
Make sure you get PIP coverage on your car insurance at least $5K and uninsured/under insurance coverage on your insurance.
People don't know how to drive here, you will get in a car accident! It's almost part of the culture of "Welcome to Houston".
The car accident (auto collision) game is very big here!
If you need to seek out a personal injury lawyer (DO NOT call GODSEY LAW FIRM - They have an advertisement on the radio saying, " Girl, I just got hit").
They have too many cases and aren't really concerned about your case until it's ready to settle.
You'll notice many cars have damage to them (side swiped, rear end, front end).
A lot of people don't have insurance coverage and drive around tags expired (fake paper tags) and terrible insurance.
I am also in the Galleria area too. I've learned this is a dangerous area. Many areas of Houston are dangerous.
The roads are terrible to drive on! A lot of uneven cement paved roads. You also have to pay TOLLS to drive on the freeways (GET AN EZ-TAG) established.
Tons of illegal non vetted people harbor the freeways all day. BE CAREFUL! People want to road rage with you, and will purposely cut you off.
Road rage is very big here and people will pull out a gun on you. BE READY!
Many people have told me - Houston is not the same as it use to be. Watch the news... people go missing and end up dead every week here.
GOOD LUCK! Let me know if you need any further insight. I've seen plenty enough to know, this is not a place to be long term.
i grew up here but im outta here. the dynamic has completely changed because of all the folks who moved here to cheer for the Astros from all the places the players come from. driving like theyre running from the police. increasing the economy i guess but ruined the kindness and civility from 25 years ago. they can have it. bye
Thanks for helping me to decide ! I have a friend that moved from NJ to TN then to Houston & is trying to get me to come. No thank you ! I can’t stand extreme heat. Jersey is high as hell but thankfully I have a good paying job & live in a great town & can run to NY whenever I feel like it . I love all the seasons so I’m gonna stay right here.
Lol I’m from jersey too loved in Houston 12 years I moved back to jersey I hated it
even illegals crying about immigration reform now. this place is turning into a nightmare
I used to live in Houston about 20 years ago. I approve this message. Great Vid…
His wife has a nice voice. Very distinguish I could see her doing voice over work or as a News Anchor. She is probably in the media field. Great video. I am considering moving to Houston late 2023
My two older siblings just moved to H town this past year.
Love this video!!! A lot of great information for others who are interested in moving to Houston. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you! Glad you liked it. Are you from the Houston area or thinking about moving to the Houston area?
Love this video and the content and like the Queen being from Southern California, Houston is very different but it a good different
Thank you very much for sharing and it's really helpful...weather is big issue for me to move there from seattle, WA....
Lack of zoning hurts property value, you forgot the flooding
Thanks for this video. Thinking about transferring my job to Houston. I am going to visit, then make a decision.
That's great! Let us know if you have any questions about the area.
Very beautiful intelligent couple, gorgeous glowing complexion. Thanks for info!
Thanks for watching!
I will say if you are a serious workaholic this town is perfect for you. Cause these folks come off like mindless ones who just programmed to work and go home and nothing else.
used to be a nice place. all that money making comes at a price. too many people now from too many undesirable places
Can you do an update on Pros of Houston and why one (family) may consider it?
Good points yes the south is big on bugs in general
Definitely!
Y’all need to come to ND where it’s cold for 8 months if you don’t like the heat
Thank you for these informative videos, my boyfriend and I are looking for homes in the suburbs of Houston. We are relocating from NJ and PA. !
Thank you.
Im looking to relocate from NJ to Houston suburbs as well with my family
That's awesome! Thank you for watching and liking our videos. Have you ever been to Houston before? What areas have you been looking at?
We've had a few people say they are moving to the Houston area from the East coast? What made you decide to pick Houston as a place to relocate too?
Living in NJ & PA the cost of living is ridiculous. We are tired of paying large amounts of money for little space. we are also travel nurses in the tri state area so change of scenery would be nice coming from the East Coast.
There are definitely a lot of people moving to Houston to take advantage of the cost of living. Warm weather and no snow is also a plus. As nurses, I'm sure you know that Houston is home to the worlds largest medical center, so there are a lot of opportunities for employment in the medical field. Which suburbs have you been looking at?
The electricity cost is worrying me. I’m single and will have a 1bed room apartment when I move. I’m seeing some apartments using electric for heat? Would you recommend we staying away from apartments like that? I’m from the northeast and we stay away from apartments that are heated with electricity as the cost can be hefty. Honestly the cost of utilities is the only things that’s worrying me about moving to Houston. 😔
Unfortunately most apartments are all electric. The good news is that Houston's electricity is deregulated, which means you have the option to shop around to different providers and pick the lowest rates. You can visits sites like www.powertochoose.org/en-us or www.choosetexaspower.org/electricity-rates/houston/ to compare rates and choose a plan that works best for you. Be sure to read the fine print though, some plans may seem cheap but have usage limits or can be variable. Hopefully that helps ease some of your worries. Where are you relocating from?
Considering the price of gas, do you really think that a furnace is gonna be cheaper?
It’s really not that bad because you only use the heat when it’s cold days but not really constantly in winter months electric is cheap opposed to summer months where you will run the air constantly because it’s so damn hot so summer out that extra utility money away.
You can Lyft and uber anywhere
Traffic sounds like CA… heavy traffic on the weekends
Traffic can be bad but it's not worse than California.
And Vegas traffic and Construction is the same ,So many people moving here😎
Whole city was shut down due to frigid weather 2 years ago.
Yeah Houston doesn't do well with the cold. That storm almost shut all of Texas down.
Traffic sucks in Houston period
Hello Mr. & Mrs. Womack! I like your personalities. I know you are in love. I can see that on your faces. I just subscribed btw. I see potential to group your channel as well. Keep it up! I am planning to move to Houston this summer. I wanted to get into real estate game too. I have never done it before, but I wanted to change my career possibly my life. I am also planning to take real estate agent license. I am not sure yet as to what I will focus on doing, wholesaling, fixer & upper or selling & listing etc. My background is in IT. I wanted to start a small business as an IT firm and learn before I can fully step into real estate business. Do you know if realtors will want to hire IT professional like me for their offices? I know some realtors have small offices and they don't have in-house IT department. Do you have any suggestions as to what I should do, go right into real estate game, find a job first or start my own business while learning about real estate? Thank you so much for your video and advice in advance.
Hi Peter, thank you for your comment and subscribing to our channel. That's awesome that you're considering starting a career in real estate. I'm not aware of any realtors that need IT support at this time. There are a lot of people that keep their full time time jobs and do real estate part time until it takes off. I'm currently during real estate part time but my wife is full time. I know other people that quit their job and went all in on real estate. They did have savings to cover the startup fees and their expenses until their business picked up, which is a smart idea if you go that route. We would love to talk to you more about your move to Houston and your plan to start a real estate career. Send us your contact information and we will reach out to you with some more info. You can email us at womackrealestategroup@gmail.com or text or call us at 281-826-26323. Hope to hear from you soon.
Hi Peter,
Have you decided on jumping into the real estate business? Just wanted to see if you had any questions about the process.
