Your realtor or insurance agent can run flood plain maps for any home you're interested in. As others have suggested stay out of the flood plain. That said there is something called street flooding; if it rains enough almost anywhere can flood. The US 24 hr rainfall record occurred in Alvin; a SW Houston suburb. It rained 43 inches in about 12 hours during a hurricane. That's a bunch of rain. Cypress is further north so it usually gets less. Most flooding comes near creeks or bayous.

My husband comes from a European country... there's a HUGE difference. Music, food, culture, language, respect,religion, acceptance (or lack of). If you're from that culture, you're often more accepted... I'd love for my kids to have 'family' from the area that my husband once lived.

Cognac or turkish coffee is always a pleasant welcome.
