I lived in Dallas but visited Houston on a few occassions.

People can complain about the heat, but you get used to it after the first few weeks. There's lots to do. I've always found Texan's to be pretty easy going.

Its true that House prices are cheap, but tax rates are higher. But food and beer on the whole was cheaprer.

There is professional hockey in Houston with the Aeros, and the facility is awesome. There are some kiddy and adult hockey leagues in houston as well.

You will gain a love for high school and college football down there, but gain a hatred for the Cowboys as you've never seen media hype like Cowboy hype.

Make sure you get the NFL network for CFL games, and OLN for hockey games.

Oh and the food, and especially the BBQ down there is awesome, you will gain some weight initially.
