Stop comparing Dallas and Oklahoma City folks. They are hardly alike. That said, the densities of Dallas and Houston is nothing really to gush over as of right now anyway. They are still very similar to post ww2 suburban cities around the nation. People in the Northeast and West Coast would laugh at this dialouge about density in Texas. It's improving. But not to the point where that density is impressive anyway.

I know my love, but I can still have my fun with these three who are popping vessels in their heads over this stuff. So funny that they let these things sting them. And one of them is all the way up in Chicago.

They would, just like I laugh at Dallas thinking their density is as consist over large areas as Houston. No where in Dallas is as large as the loop and SW Houston in terms of consistently higher density. The Bellaire /Bissonnet area of the loop? Are you familiar with the area?? west of 288 within the loop going all the way towards uptown and passed it?

"Friendly rivalry" my azz. Y'all are being downright nasty with each other, talking about people's mommas and what not.

...but anyway, if I wanted to live in Dallas, I'd just go back to Atlanta: the city that does "Dallas" better than Dallas itself.

I don't think anyone in Houston envy's your Uptown. Maybe folks in OKC.

Oh Dallas....you so crazy
Do you guys somehow think bringing up Oklahoma is a type of insult? What's the point?

I want somebody to point out all the troublesome Dallas posters...Even if some of us do defend dallas on some occasions we still(as a group)have the most realistic reasoning.We are way more fair and real with our responses...Im not saying that some of my responses don't **** some Houstonians off but they are always realistic and in response to comments made by Houston posters....and for the record....nowhere in this thread or even on this forum have anybody from Dallas tried to act like the City of Dallas is Larger than the City of Houston.Everybody knows that Houston has DOUBLE the population of Dallas...but on the flip-side maybe thats the exact thing that bothers Houstonians...They are sooooooooo much bigger than Dallas but yet Dallas happens to still be neck and neck in every category. Ive said this before...How in the Hell is the 9th largest city in the U.S giving the 4th largest city a run for its money like that????? Houston you should be ashamed of yourself!!!!Dallas is 5 cities behind Houston and no one can tell...This says alot for Dallas...not so much for Houston. Houston is one spot behind Chicago, and it is forbidden to even mention Houston and Chicago in the same sentence. Some Houstonians are CRAZY!!!!
