best places to live


What is the best place in Texas?

I liked Ft. Worth, Austin, San Antonio, and Galveston. If you have any other cities or towns to suggest, chime in. Thanks! I've heard that Houston and Dallas are nice, but rather bland, if you will; by that, I mean they're each a great hodge-podge of world cultures, but the cities don't preserve their character or history (only what I've heard, though.) I've also heard that Tyler, El Paso, Laredo, Amarillo, Lubbock, Kingsville, and College Station are all nice areas. I don't live in Texas, by the way, but love the climate, culture (or, in the case of Austin, the whole eclectic mix of them,) and the downright friendliness of the place. I plan to move there from Kentucky as soon as I receive my Bachelor's degree.

  2. ozona Tx. the biggest little town in the world
  3. Dallas texas all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
  4. I loved Galveston and am partial to small cities by the water, so anything on the coast that would afford me a job is great. I found the panhandle a bit warm, and we watched a guy fry an egg on his car back in the eighties, lol.
  5. Austin is the place. Lots of great activities and culture. Plus it doesn't matter who you are or what your beliefs, you are going to fit in.
  6. I live in The Woodlands, and totally love it. We are about 25 miles north of downtown Houston, a smallish but rapidly growing community of villages that each has it's unique properties. We have an outdoor pavilion for concerts-both rock and symphony, tons of bike trails, an awesome mall- not the Galleria by any means- but it does the job, a big lake for boating or fishing or whatever, lots of parks, and tons of fun stuff to do. The Woodlands Rocks!!
  7. A young grad on the make belongs in Austin, or maybe San Antonio. Visit Corpus Christi and surrounding area for great fishing, the beach and wind sports. You don't need to be in Kingsville or Laredo.
