I am all for the complete annexation of the entire county, but you know that it will bring the density down. Alot of people do not want to hear of lower density.

I think Houston needs to densify instead of annexing and let the unincorporated areas incorporate into suburbs.

In reality, creating/changing artificial political boundaries is not going to change actual population or density at all of any place.

The Katy side is already more dense than the east side. It would increase the density to annex the Katy area

It only affects council representation, it is not quite artificial in those respects
