Which is more urban, with more of a "big city" feel: Houston or Seattle? (compared, places)

BTW - its Adderall, might I suggest the XR version, extends the halflife and more continuity in realease

And yes I have been to Ft Bend County actually, Memorial Hermann Hospital which to the best of knowledge is definately in Fort Bend, as is Katy I believe

On your allusion of Manhattan bend your interpretation as you desire

Oh yes, This:



is developing just like this:




And for your information, Memorial Hermann has Satellite Hospitals all over the Metro area but the main hospital is in teh Medical center. smack in the middle of Harris County dude

Yes it looks very similar the suburban pictures I showed, and those other pictures, the residential areas similar to your pictures lies just outside these districts as it does in the galleria and the burbs I showed pictures of,

On the Memorial Hermann, I was specifically describing the one in Katy, as I said I am pretty sure it is in Fort Bend, please correct me if there is not a Memorial Hermann in Katy, I have also been to the TMC at least 40 times

And honestly you confuse tall buildings with being urban

And honestly I have nothing against houston, but to call it urban is mostly innacurate, it is a large metropolitan suburbanesque area

I am not saying it is 100% urban but it has many urban areas aand many suburban areas. If you knew it you would know that

You know almost every picture I posted is a town centered around a mall, some of them even call them the galleria.

People in Houston believe this is urban whereas almost the exact same look, feel, and function in most other metros it is considered suburban or in the suburbs.

Why is the same thing different in Houston, maybe it is the really tall building in close proximity to mall parking lots, yes that is unique

the areas you showed were not suburban in nature. You showed business areas.

On the Memorial Hermann, I was specifically describing the one in Katy, as I said I am pretty sure it is in Fort Bend, please correct me if there is not a Memorial Hermann in Katy, I have also been to the TMC at least 40 times

Like I said there are many satellite MH hospitals. The main one is in the medical center. if you ask someone in Houston where the MH hospital was they would tell you the med center not Katy or Fort Bend

we didn't say it was urban. we said it was not suburban. Look back at the definition of suburban cause I seriously don't think you know what it is

again tall buildings don't necessarily have to be urban, but they are certainly not an urban feature.

Suburbs are areas that are largelt residential. Uptown is not largely residential. It is largely business oriented with some residential buildings.

How is the definition of suburban so hard for you to grasp?

HTown I have been going to Houston since the mid 90s, have probably been there an accumulated 30-40 weeks of my life over that span, I have been to every neighborhood you describe multiple times. I visit a friend in the woodlands at least twice a year on top of that, I actually am pretty familiar with the city, ESPECIALLY the galleria. I have been nearly hit by a car crossing the street in the area, had a drink with Bill Walton in the Marriott at the Galleria, he was in to do one of the first Yao Ming games that time, I am dating myself, but YES I know the cities and the area being discussed very well. Why to me it feels just like many suburban areas I am also very familiar with.

Is midtown more similar to Tysons Corner or Downtown Boston, serious question, you tell me
