come take over Houston. we still need more.

I am trying to get my best friend from Austin to move to Houston cause I miss her so much. But for some reason she thinks Asians won't fit in well in Houston as they do in Austin because Houston is just a good city for blacks (she thinks )

She lived in the Valley, Austin and San Antonio for the last 20 years. There is sooooooo much hate from these areas directed at Houston that she never really heard the good, and she has not visited for herself, so it is stuck in her head that Houston is this big scary boys in the hood gangsta type city.

It's really sad, I guess people from these areas are jealous because Houston is different and it surpasses them in job creation

Not really...

The Asians in Austin go to UT & when they graduate they either end up back in Dallas or Houston.

Austin's Asian population is actually quite weak for a city its size & so is San Antonio's.
