About Houston, TX

Emerging from Houston's old oil town persona is a new "opportunity city" that prides itself on diversity, friendliness, and business and cultural offerings. Houston has all the perks of a big city - museums and galleries, major sports teams, corporate headquarters, and dishy local politics - mixed with a little bit of Southern charm. Where else will you find an artist that specializes in giant presidential busts, more restaurants per capita than any other city in the world, or a lovable muckraking TV reporter that loves to talk about slime in the ice machine? There's always something to see and do in Houston, and you'll read about all of it and more here.
