Believe it or not Houston, Texas might just be one of the best kept secrets in regards places to live in the United States this millennium. Somehow Houston has managed to dodge the brunt of an economic downturn, while still affording many of it's citizens a decent living wage and a high quality of life. Everything is less expensive in Houston. We have some of the best restaurants and bars in the country and you can still have dinner for two at under $100. If you are out traveling the US and are looking for a place to visit you should really stop by and have a blast. Recently, and I never thought I would live to see it, Houston put in a massive public skatepark downtown. It has a downtown skyline overlook and is a really great place to roll around and warm up before heading out and getting some street footage. The only problem is that you have to wear a helmet, but hopefully not for long as people are working hard to change that. We also have access to the Gulf of Mexico, just 50 minutes south of downtown. You can literally go out to the beach for the day and go out downtown the same night. There are not to many places in the US that you can enjoy those types of amenities and still be able to afford a really nice home for under $200,000. Of course, Southside Skatepark is there as the only problem we have in this town is our violent changes of weather. One day it is hot and muggy, the next chilly and brisk. Southside Skatepark is there taking care, just look at how happy people are to be there.
