Houston
Namesake of soldier, statesman and politician Sam Houston, site of NASA's Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center, home to the internationally renowned Texas Medical Center, bustling seaport and energy industry center, Houston is a modern dynamic city that has managed to retain a small town feel and the charm of southern hospitality.
As the nation's fourth-largest city, Houston offers residents all the amenities of cosmopolitan life—fine dining, cultural activities, entertainment venues, professional sporting events—as well as lakes, rivers, streams and the Gulf of Mexico that supply an abundance of outdoor recreational activities. There are also an abundance of housing choices for those considering a move to the "Space City" metropolitan area. Modern urban high-rises, condos, lofts, single-family homes in old-fashioned neighborhoods with lots of green space, historic buildings, luxury residences, ranches with plenty of acreage and homes on the Gulf Coast with scenic views are all viable housing options. No matter what your taste or preference in a home, community or lifestyle, the greater Houston area is ready to give you a big Texas-size welcome!
