Yes because the villages of Houston or The Woodlands is so different from the K-Town area.
You both are now just being homers; I love Houston just as much as you guys, but K-Town is no different than anything you find in the suburbs of Houston. It blends in with the rest of north Houston. Heavily forested and suburban.
I am not bing a homer, I just think you have been tricked into believing that suburban is the opposite of urban by notorious NE boosters, but it is not.
Houston has a city bus system that serves the city well, very well I might add so I don't know what all of the fuss is about us not being anymore urban than a city like New York or Atlanta, which also has mega freeways & strip malls.
Those old diesel buses are being traded in for hybrids as we speak. Houston is putting out significant effort in improving its air quality & has achieved record numbers in overall smog free days over the past few years.

urban =/= dense so anyone who says Houston is not urban is bastardizing the meaning of the word
Compareing Houston's Korean areas to Atlantas is stupid. Atlantas are more extensive and go far above and beyond anything Houston has to offer the Korean community. Same for Dallas. Its reflected in the population. Atlanta's Korean community is 1/3 larger than Dallas' which is twice the size of Houston's.
Houston is more diverse. No arguement there. But lets give credit where credit is due. Atlanta is the Korean hotspot of the south and Atlanta offers more to Koreans than anywhere else in the South. Hell, Georgia has attracted more Koreans than the state of Texas year after year.
Now the real test is of some of you Houston homers will man up and admit that or continue to make irrelevant arguments.

that is not a direct correlation, it is not in every city Korean towns develop. you cannot say that one city has a huge x population so the x town must be big too.
look at Houston's nigerian population, do they have a little Lagos? no.
I don't see how ATL's Korean population have to do with their Korean town

It was just another thing to add. I have spent time in Houston's Korea town and Atlanta's Korean areas. No comparrison. Houston's Korean ammenities are behind Dallas' and far behind Atlanta's.
Again credit where credit is due. I know Houston is the most diverse, but we have to give this one to Atlanta.

I have never been to ATL's Korea town so I don't know. all I am saying is that the pop has less to do with the size of the korea town than how entrenched the culture is in that city.
You may be totally right, but the one statement about size threw off your post.
you would have gone a lot further by stating you have gone to both and that ATL's is bigger (as you did now).
I having never been would have had to shut up for a change
And Houston has no lil haiti italy or havana.. whats your point? Miami multiculralism is more seen to the eye than in Houston.
I doubt that. It is big for latin and is seen as a hot latin town, not a diverse town. you think of miami, you think of latin, not diversity
