I've lived in both.

I like GA for it's different climate/geographical areas.

Houston has everything Atlanta has except the mountains.

We do have exceedingly varied architecture here
Oh i'm well aware of the diversity of Houston skyscrapers. It's just the few super tall ones that ATL has really stick out more and maybe because Houston has more boxier scrapers. Like I stated overrall I like Houston skyline n there mix of skylines more. I just feel like ATL with the less they got they make up for it in uniqueness. Matter fact I'll say Uptown Houston/Galleria area scrapers have more of a mixture of variety then DT Houston. But I still love DT Houston skyline. And you know I stay in Houston, say if you want to take me on a tour I have no problem with that. You a female right? lol

Why would you say that?

BTW, I think there are many people on city-data that might be a gay male.

Who said there was no sprawl in Houston? Quite the contrary. Katie was a sleepy, quiet area in the early-mid 80's....now? Not so much.....Getting to either side of town was daunting and Houston was, and continues to be, bumper-to-bumper. Traffic sucks in both.

Density? Google it. The density, oddly enough, is slightly more here although anyone who has lived in Houston might argue that. Check out the total population of both and look at their land mass......Atlanta is about 15% more dense as if it would matter as both are crowded as hell.

Weather? Oh, I dunnoo.......most people put a premium on that...just ask folks from Minnesooooota.....eh?

I miss Minnesota weather, but I'm a native. And I do admit it's nice to be down here in this nice weather while they're still getting flurries in the Twin Cities. Hee!
