Life in the Houston Area

Set in southeast Texas, not far from the shores of the Gulf of Mexico, the Houston area has something for everyone. Here, the winter temps are mild, the sports fans are wild, and the city at the center of it all is alive with activity. Over 145 languages are spoken in Houston, and this cultural diversity inspires a culinary, art, and entertainment scene throughout the greater Houston area that’s one of a kind. Close to your new home in Houston, you’ll find over 11,000 restaurants in the Houston Metro area, along with bustling shopping centers, popular music and performing arts venues, and nearly 200 golf courses within a 50-mile radius of downtown. And when it comes to sports, you’ll have your pick of pro, college, or high school teams to cheer on.  
 
The Houston, TX area is home to a variety of industries, most prominently health care, manufacturing, oil and gas, and tech—and enjoys an overall cost of living that’s lower than most metro areas in the U.S., which means your paycheck will stretch quite a bit further when you consider a new home in Houston.
