How about Detroit versus Honolulu? Cleveland versus San Francisco? New York versus Gary, Indiana? In the real world (not these forums where people overvalue cities that most people abhorr) San Diego is so much preferred to Houston it isn't even mentioning in the same breath. Let's see- perfect weather, beaches, accessibility to skiing, or lots and lots of ghettos air polllution and oppressive humidity? Um, I will go with San Diego.
That is why Houston is growing by 180,000 people a year, and SD is growing at a stagnant pace? If you think SD is all glitz and glamor, then you must be living under a rock. To compare Houston to Detroit, Cleveland, and Gary is laughable. To compare SD to Honolulu, San Francisco, and NYC is ****ing outrageous.

You hush, lol. You have no say in this because you're constantly exploiting Detroit. A city that no on likes but you.
Why? Are you afraid that San Diego will finally lose to the more desirable Los Angeles? San Diego will never overcome the shadow of L.A. That's why Houston is better.

You're going to take the postitives of one city and compare to the negatives of the other? Yeah, that's fair. And where are all these supposed ghettos? No more than any other large city. BTW, you don't know much about Houston if you think it's like a Detroit or Gary, IN.

Channelview is about the worst suburb of Houston, and certainly not typical of the rest of Houston...

I like this post. I've noticed the same overvaluing on here. In the other thread, Detroit is being portrayed by some to be nice or not so bad. Give me a break. Detroit is a ghetto, dirty, disgusting, crime-ridden, poor, ****hole. Just speaking the truth.
