going to move to houston soon.i will be going ahead of the family to start working and find a place to live. i've done alot of online research and found lots of good things about texas i was just wondering if anyone can clue me in on the drawbacks?from what i understand its going to be completely different from living in florida.(weather excepted, similar climate)just curious what to expect with this kind of a move. theres always a downside to things and it would be nice to be ready for them instead of being blindsided.

i've already got something lined up i'd prefer to keep it classified until i'm there and rockin' as much as i hate to say this in 12 years time in this industry it can become a hostile cut-throat environment especially when guys are starving.
