How about a "Native of Houston and I love it." And how about an " Illegal Immigrant and its awesome to live for free baby!!"

Then you would have tacked Houston down.

Let's see, best place for singles inside the loop. Arts scene is great, gotta search for it. The women run the gamut from hot to butt ugly, it's both Amsterdam at its naughtiest and an Amish Settlement, the water tastes horrible, I'm a gringo married to a latina and I'd say interracial dating is accepted here more than almost anywhere in the United States, there are tons of Asian women and finally my favorite thing about Houston is there is no other place like it.

I said I'm a native and think it's OK. It has it's charm as well as bad points I'd rather not deal with. It's a giant city, after all. I'm not a sugar-coating apologist, but I wouldn't live anywhere else if I couldn't help it.

20-something singles, midtown. 30+ singles, Clear Lake is pretty good. Depends on who you talk to.

Arts scene is pretty heavy, but not my thing. Art car parade is cool though.

The babes are generally quite uptight compared to the ones in SoCal. (Lots of obesity here, but that's not "babe" quality.)

Houston is 7/10 naughty. Whatcha need? I can probably get it.

Water is chlorinated, but fine. Use a filter pitcher or fridge w/ filter. No bottles necessary.

Though I prefer blondes (and married one), I can say Latinas definitely like dark-haired gringos. Not sure about Asians as much, but I've definitely seen the 'mix' several times.

Favorite thing is I have a nice, good size home to come to every night. Most of my entertainment is right here.

Singles: Midtown or uptown
Art: Big time art scene
Babes: the entire range, but it is the South and Texas, so there are lots of hotties
Naughty: again, runs the scale, but it is one of the largest cities in the US, so you can get everything. Plus we are widely considered the strip club capital of the US
Water = OK
Lots of interracial dating
Favorite thing about Houston: golf year round, Rockets

  • best areas for singles to live - Midtown, inside Loop 610
  • whats the arts scene like - lots of variety, something for everyone
  • the babes - women inside the loop are better looking
  • how is Houston on the naughty scale - you could find whichever lifestyle you prefer here, as naughty or nice as you want
  • hows the water taste - fine. City provides water reports regularly, and the quality is good
  • the latina babes open to dating us gringos? interracial relationships are quite common
  • the asian babes - are beautiful (I'm biased on this one)
  • Absolute FAVORITE thing about Houston? several favorites - can exercise and grow things year-round, lots of variety in food, music, arts, entertainment, diversity of people and thoughts, lots of friendly people, job opportunities are abundant, affordable...

I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but is it safe to assume you will find alot more variety in babes in Houston than San Antonio?
