DALLAS AND HOUSTON ARE BOTH WORLD CLASS CITIES THAT SHARE A FRIENDLY AND OFTEN HEATED RIVALRY. THE CHALLENGE FOR BOTH DALLAS & HOUSTON IS TO SAY SOMETHING POSTIVE AND NICE ABOUT THE OPPOSITE CITY THEY RESIDE IN.

Houston's my hometown so of course I love my city. I'm also rocking with Dallas because to me, it's like Houston #2. Both cities are really more similar than different. Dallas rocks and so does Houston

Similar cities but in different parts of the state. They're even similar by ethnic make up, though people usually say Houston "feels" more international.

Dallas is in the prairies & lakes region in north Texas.
Houston is in coastal Texas meets east Texas forest.

Smile Houston and Dallas are both fine

Although they like to put each other down the real thruth is that either area is just fine and probably better than most of the rest of the country.

I've been to both. My BROTHER lives outside of dallas in the suburbs and i found Dallas relatively easy to get around in. I was completely lost in houston and i dread even having to drive through there. Maybe once they are done with all the construction it will be easier. In any case, i haven't seen enough of houston to form an opinion and dallas is just okay, but i'm a floridian so enough said.
