Austin, Houston or San Antonio?




NelsonM


Im relocating from Puerto Rico so Im used to the heat and humidity (its no big deal for me) not used to the cold weather you barely have to use a jacket here maybe once or twice during January. I want to live in a place that has lots of things to do, is safe for my 8 year old daughter and is not to expensive. I dont mind living in a sub city like Katy or Round Rock to be in a nicer area.


Answer
I live in Katy. I love it out here. We are in Katy ISD, which is a wonderful school district. http://www.katyisd.org
It has been wonderful here for us.
There is so much to do in the Houston metro area......even in the surrounding counties that would be fun for both you and your daughter.
Katy
The "Katy area" is made up of large sections of unincorporated Harris and Fort Bend counties and for the most part sits east and southeast of the city limits of Katy. This area is within the Katy Independent School District and nearly everyone in this area has a Katy postal address. The Katy area includes newer developments such as Cinco Ranch and Grand Lakes, while also encompassing developments from the 1970s and 1980s such as Memorial Parkway and Nottingham Country. All of the "Katy area" lies in the city of Houston's extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ), not Katy's ETJ. This means that the areas of "Katy area" are controlled by the city of Houston and the city has the ability to annex it in the future. The city of Katy cannot annex this area unless the city of Houston releases the area's ETJ to Katy, which has occurred in several small chunks in recent years. The most recent instance of this was in 2001 when Houston ceded about 400 acres of ETJ to the City of Katy to allow the Katy Mills Mall and surrounding parking lot to be built entirely within the City of Katy.
The Greater Katy area, which encompasses both the actual City of Katy along with the unincorporated suburban areas around the City, has approximately 175,000 residents total. The Houston suburb's prime attraction is the Katy Mills Mall. A secondary attraction is an unusual outdoor museum of Chinese culture and history called the Forbidden Gardens.

The Houston Museum District is an area of Houston where many of the city's museums are located. The district is centered on the Hotel Zaza (currently being renovated) and the adjacent Mecom Fountain. The Museum District also houses Rice University, the Clayton Library Center for Genealogical Research and Hermann Park which includes the Houston Zoo and the Miller Outdoor Theatre. The Museum District is also near the University of Saint Thomas.
Some of the museums and institutions include:
Holocaust Museum Houston
Children's Museum of Houston
John P. McGovern Museum of Health & Medical Science
Contemporary Arts Museum Houston
The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston
Museum of Natural Science
The Buffalo Soldiers National Museum
Byzantine Fresco Chapel Museum
Houston Center for Contemporary Craft
Houston Center for Photography
John C. Freeman Weather Museum

In Midtown there are theatres, art galleries, and museums, which include:
The Ensemble Theater (a theater that focuses on African-American themed plays)
The Community Artists' Collective
Houston Fire Museum
Houston Center for Contemporary Arts
Lawndale Art Center
Midtown Art Center

Galveston
Galveston is known for its historic neighborhoods and a ten-mile long seawall designed to protect the city from floods. It is also home to the infamous Balinese Room, a historic nightclub and former illegal gambling hall located on a 600-foot pier extending into the Gulf of Mexico.
The city houses many tourist attractions. The attractions include the Galveston Schlitterbahn waterpark, Moody Gardens, the Lone Star Flight Museum, a downtown neighborhood of historic buildings known as "The Strand," many historical museums and mansions, and miles of beach front. The Strand plays host to a yearly Mardi Gras festival, Galveston Island Jazz & Blues Festival, Texas Beach Fest, Lone Star Bike Rally, and a Victorian-themed Christmas festival called "Dickens on the Strand" (honoring the works of novelist Charles Dickens, especially A Christmas Carol) in early December.
Galveston's historic downtown and abundant beaches are major tourist destinations. Other attractions in Galveston include Moody Gardens, the Galveston Island Railroad Museum, Schlitterbahn, the Strand and the Lone Star Flight Museum. Galveston is also home to several historic ships: the tall ship Elissa at the Texas Seaport Museum and USS Cavalla and USS Stewart, both berthed at Seawolf Park on nearby Pelican Island. Galveston is also home to a symphony orchestra and a small ballet company.

Clear Lake
The community is adjacent to NASA's Johnson Space Center, Space Center Houston, as well as other major aerospace companies including Boeing and Lockheed-Martin.
