Than you would know Houston is much more lush than Dallas. Dallas offers nothing like Memorial Park.

Uptown+TMC+Downtown(Houston) is better than Dallas.

Are you kidding me? Mountaincreek isn't even in the city of Dallas, just like The Woodlands isn't in Houston buy TW offers some small rolling hills. Turtle Creek is just outside Uptown Dallas, big deal Dallas has no TMC, it has no Eleanor Teasley park or Buffalo Bayou walk.

And Whiterock lake=Lake Houston. And to top it off Houston has Galveston Bay, Gulf of Mexico in its backyard. PLEASE don't try to compare Whiterock to anything in Houston. You're going to get hurt

Most Hostonians have never even heard of lake houston....let alone even been there....Trust me it's not White rock.....Turtle creek is simply Beautiful...which is connected to Riverchon park and Lee Park. Now if you argue that that those are not lush then it is too obvious that u are just Hating...Yall need to visit Dallas forreal and quit acting like yall know everyhing there is to know and see. I bet none of yall have even been to any of these places i named but you will be so quick to discredit them as being inferior and not lush....

Billboards are not the only road hazard on Houston highways -- they seem to be paved with some material which shreds tires. You will see them all over the place. I used to see a lot of mattresses and drill pipe so I suppose this is an improvement.
