The TRUTH about Living in Houston | 2 Year Update 

“Roaches…, you may not find them, but they gon’ find you “🤣🤣🤣

Great video and one of the most accurate that I've seen! Overall Houston is a great city, there is always something to do and it has a lot to offer..

The lack security at apartments segment was a major point

… I’m a New Yorker, rodents are like our neighbors.. we don’t know them but we see them all the time 😂 Wanting to move out there with a job transfer. TY for the video.

I really like your demeanor and personality! Great video!

For the most part looks like you love living in Houston so far. You are 100% correct in terms of the cost of living in the Galleria area vs the suburbs. While it's tough to find anything nice for $1,000 in the Galleria area now, there are some hidden gems out there. ( not luxury apartments tough). I have been doing apartment locating for a bit over 2 years and I do feel the same about the fact that you can get an apartment that's 10x better in areas such as Katy, Cypress, even in the Woodlands for very similar price as in the inner city. Plus traffic in the Galleria area is getting out of control during rush hours. Love to connect man! Just subscribed to your channel.

The music is too loud babe!

You’re hilarious ! Lol I just visited for the first time and definitely looking into moving. Great vid

Great video! Great info! You’re very well spoken & professional 👍🏼🍃

HTown gives you back, the love you give it. Real Talk.

Short, to the point, and some major details. Thank you lol. Especially mentioning the bugssss. Had no idea it was that bad!

I’m currently in Phoenix, AZ as well highly considering moving to Houston or Dallas soon. I love AZ and the scenery is amazing but it’s more of a retirement community. Thanks for this video.

Lived in Tucson for 6 months. Honestly a very nice city.

Uber if you are going out in Houston or any major city. For one a DWI charge is expensive as hell, you don't risk your life or anyone elses, you are going to have to pay park anyways, and it burns your gas up. If you stay within Houston proper it may cost between 25-30 bucks to Uber to the venue you are going to and back. It's well worth the cost. Parking is free in the streets at night pretty much everywhere, but you just have to make sure you aren't parking in a tow zone, more than likely the vehicle will be good but it could always be broken in to or bumped by drunk people walking, and you have to keep an eye out walking back to the vehicle afterwards....especially women. It's just better to Uber.

Always try to get a place with a garage here.

Loveee the comments! 😂ppl are hilarious! All of your questions can get answered just from the comments lol.. Love it!!!

it's getting really expensive in the Galleria area, you have to make good money if you want to live in a decent apartment complex, otherwise you will have rats and roaches no matter how often you call the office for the exterminators

I knew you weren't fully from Htown when I saw one of your other earlier videos. Though all in all, dope vid!

I’m 26 from wisco hoping to move to Texas I visited humble and Baytown and enjoyed it I might just have to take that leap

If you say “59” or “Southwest Freeway” instead of “69,” people will think you’re a native.

Traffic in Houston in general is TRASH!! Drivers are even worse. Lol also been here about 2 years

Im in Atlanta im trying to move somewhere cheap and houston is where its at! Im talking about on living ive heard houston is way more affordable than Atlanta so houston is my number 1 choice charlotte is my 2nd choice but over all im 100% HOUSTON is way more gorgeous ❤ im picking houston instead of charlotte i have to visit Houston im autistic so i love huge cities like the 4th most largest city ❤

Looking to move to katy are Sugarland suburbs Houston Texas what areas beast avoid hurricanes still close to downtown but do be in the down town area and also I know Texas do not have rental control also make sure I look for apartments' that 1 percent 3 percent I was doing my research on Tick tock so that's big concern of my"s.

Just came to say Bear Down 😺 Nice video.

Houston is 20 times bigger than Atlanta.

Hey loved the video it was very informative, but what are some safer suburban areas that arent too far from Huston ?

Nice video…moving before the year is out. Is there an artsy/boho city area in Houston?

Hi! New subbie here. My husband & I are planning our move to Htown in March 2024. We're still on the fench about what part of town to move. We have decided to move to an apartment first. In your opinion what part of town should we be looking. By the way were not clubbers were empty nesters. Any help would be appreciated

you lost me at the flying roaches 😭

I’m closing in on my retirement and I’d like to move from Houston to a warmer climate, but the prices on homes are stupidly ridiculous and Mortgage prices has been skyrocketing on a roll(currently over 7%) do I just invest my spare cash into stock and wait for a housing crash or should I go ahead to buy a home anyways.

Great info!

How is Houston for new grads? Jobs? Dating? Nightlife?

Thanx. Is there a way you can avoid roaches? Like how about the suburbs? I can’t do the roaches bruh but I’m tryin to move there

Most of what he said is true. ..except the part about rats and roaches. I lived here for 15 years, and I've never seen a rat or ever had a problem with roaches.

Right off the back bro your music is too loud.

What is the name of the nice suburb area?

Is it true about expensive it is to live there and how pricey the tolls are and how many you have to go through?

Thinking of moving to Houston from Memphis. I was dead set on phoenix area but I think Houston might be first while my kids are in elementary. I wanted to ask how is the racial interactions there because Memphis and surrounding areas are nasty segregated and that's the main reason why I wanted to move west but somebody told me Houston isn't as bad but how do you feel about it since youve been there for a couple of years now?

What areas are you looking in that you are paying that much in rent? When I looked for places in Houston, I found a lot of nice complexes cheaper than what you are paying. You must have a really good job.

Im coming In April from Cali❤❤ cant wait!

How is the jobs

2-inch long cockroaches climbing the walls of newly painted (empty) garage in greater Houston suburb (not inner-city).

Tons of good luck! Can you do a vid on where to meet and make friends if you’re new to HOU

❤

All this sounds way better then California living in Southern California has become impossible im lokking over there fo sho lol

Aww hell nah, I’m so terrified of rats 😭 so disgusting

I have been trying to move there for YEARS! They always say there are SO many opportunities and I caint land ONE! My background both education and experience are over 15 years and I have zero luck. Do you mind sharing how you landed a job in TX while living in AZ?

is it me or do houston not have any pretty females

OMG what a cute chocolate delicious black man he is. hi daddy

lol ny got rats i would have been cool

Is it racist ?

How you gone have on all that Laker gear and complaining about Houston traffic and parking???

Just left Atlanta ..I’m done ✅ with roaches 🪳

no rat problem "YET" but there is cockroach problem already. roaches out number humans in this place

MOVE. NO city is perfect. Maybe things will get back to the way they were before all these criminals moved here. Crime is horrible.

Houston would never be the “new Atlanta”… Houston, Texas is Houston, Texas, and we could never be compared to Atlanta simply because we are in an exclusive lane completely on our own. Just “Energy Capital of the World” things 🤷🏼‍♂️💁🏼‍♂️

Glad you are enjoying the city. I personally hate any establishment that has hookah lol. While there are a lot of those joints, there are plenty of places that don't do the hookah thing if it isn't your vibe. You're also absolutely right, some places do catfish on the food and it's more of an "ambiance" thing, rather than quality. There are a lot of great restaurants though, but they are usually not all that popular and serve a variety of different foods from around the world. I strongly suggest dodging the chain restaurants and popular spots and just google the best restaurants based on country or ethnicity.

Where you recommend to live at and new or used apartments?

Love Houston but just the heat like down in Arizona i cant take.. Even the California heat i cant take. Love my winters.

Federal real 🎖️

Sound more like possums than rats.The are everywhere here in Houston

How often do you see palm trees, driving through the city, commercial area, neighborhoods, etc?

Your guide to all things Houston???? Stop it.yall are fn hilarious. Please get some more content.

It’s packed because to many people are moving here whe they not from here….

There’s always going to be bad traffic by the galleria because of the galleria, that’s it😊

From phx az looking to move to Houston

Great video thank you 🙏🏾

No way I would die off the rats 🐀

Nice video!

We're full.

I was born in the original Hermann Hospital by the zoo back in 1965. I remember Houston history from then to now personally, and my 86-year-old mother remembers even more. Lemme know if you have questions. I love my hometown, but BORDER PROBLEMS are causing a LOT more crime in decent neighborhoods. I live in a predominantly black apartment complex, and until Biden got in and opened the border, this was a SAFE, FUN, pleasant place to live. Now, we are dealing with child & women sex trafficking on an unprecedented scale. They had a big bust in an apartment adjacent to mine, just last month! We have our "powder" and wont hesitate to use it, but, still... ive never seen ANYTHING like this! Anyway, if yall are moving here and want GOOD things, like a good CHURCH, I'm happy to help, just lemme know! Be blessed, from Houston ❤

Mike! I used to go to high school with you I recently lived to Houston with my wife. Godbless

Crime is really bad in Houston, crazy the see you're down playing it.
