[carolinajack]

Can anyone tell me of conservative, family friendly, neighborhoods around Houton?

I know dallas, austin, San Antonio areas very well having grown up in Suburban dallas but looking for a neighborhood in Houston and dont know the area.


thanks

What's your price range in a home? There are conservative pockets, but I think in general, Houston is pretty mixed.

Lots of family oriented communities all thru out Houston. Just again depends on price and what area you are wanting to live in. You need to narrow it down a little bit to get a better answer.

so price determines the if a place is conservative or not there? $500K is price range, though i was thinking about values not dollar bills but thanks.

I would almost go as far to say that most suburban towns around Houston are somewhat conservative in nature. Families tend to move to the suburbs for the schools, family environment, and lower crime rate.

No it doesn't, price has very little do with it directly. But there is no use in saying that a 100k-200k community is conservative if it's not what you are looking for. Same for 1mil+ communities.

That's the only reason. It helps narrow down choices. Now that you've said 500k. I would say Memorial, Woodlands, and possibly Bellaire.

ok i meant based on voting/election returns which districts, towns , suburbs were solidly Republican and conservative and strong family areas.

[carolinajack]

i wonder if sugarland and katy are or are they more liberal democrat?

carolinajack, you're talking as if there's actually a difference between the two major parties.

The suburbs tend to be as conservative as most of America, with the inner city being more of a libertarian bent.

Memorial or Western Memorial. Zips 77024 and 77079, Briargrove and Tanglewood in 77056 and 77057, hit the more conservative areas of town. I know tons of conservatives that live inside the loop as well, but those price ranges are sky high.
If you go farther out into the Master Planned Communites, they are a mishmash of all walks and view points of life. I can't say they are strongly one thing or another.

But I have no clue where the employment location is.
