This is true. Southeast Texas is usually referred to as the Golden Triangle area of Beaumont-Port Arthur-Orange. That is 90 miles east of Houston.

But here is mine.


Cities-Philadelphia
Countryside- Philadelphia
Beaches- Houston
Local cuisine- Houston
Infrastructure/Transportation- Philadelphia
Economy- Houston
Tourism- Philadelphia
Architecture- Philadelphia
Higher EDU- Philadelphia
Shopping- Houston
Sports- Philadelphia
Film/music/media- Toss Up...Seriously. Neither are really much better than the other
Nightlife- Don't really know Philly's nightlife. I know Houston's isn't bad.
Family friendly- Houston slightly
Housing Stock- Philadelphia
Name recognition/Prestige-Philadelphia

Overall-Philly slightly over Houston. Love both cities.
