The fact that Houston pumpers here have to brag about a mall, and not even a very exciting one, shows how stuck in the 1980s Houston still is. Chicago has Woodfield in the burbs but it doesn’t even need a mall, Michigan Ave is way better and more impressive than the Galleria.
Houston pumpers need to get out of their state more. It’s embarrassing.
Please Houston would blow out New York if it wanted to.

That was literally one person. What's embarrassing is the obvious confirmation bias displaying in this comment. One person and all of a sudden it's "Houston pumpers". LOL
Malls have lost relevance. Maybe, when people in the future figure out a mall would be a nice thing to have, they'll build them again. Then, these people will think they've created something new...why didn't anyone think of this before, they'll wonder. LOL
Houston vs. Chicago....always and forever, Chicago.
Houston, to me, is one of the most underwhelming large cities in the country. I have spent too much time their to know that the gap between Chicago and Houston is vast.
I genuinely think, as cities/downtowns, Houston and Minneapolis is a much better comparison.
Lakeview in Chicago has more vibrancy than downtown Houston. That is not a tongue in cheek comment.
How can you compare Houston's hottest neighborhoods like Midtown, Montrose, River Oaks to Chicago's staples like River North, Old Town, Lincoln Park, Wicker Park? It's just not close.

One non credible person brought up malls and now everyone is clinging to him and using that posters ridiculous comments to just everyone else by.

Houston has aspects that are underwhelming but to say the whole city is would be ridiculous. Houston has one of the best culinary scenes in the country, is one of the most diverse cities in the country, and punches above its weight in the arts.

I have only been to Houston briefly during an annual meeting, and I really liked it. I also remember going to a really nice restaurant that had an awesome happy hour and great ambience. I believe this was around 2013, so I'm sure a lot has changed. I feel like these 2 cities are very different that city preferences, weather, location, etc would be the deciding factor for many people.

There are very few cities in the US with more a superior culinary scene than Houston. Chicago is one of them. To me Chicago is only 2nd to NYC for food. I do believe Houston is 4th or 5th in the US.

Houston's food is very good, no doubt.
