As a non West U resident of 77005, we dislike being called "West U" as much as we do when non-Texans lump Houstonians & Dallasites as one.

Default Not surprising...

They rate the schools, crime, etc. in there, so for those who don't know, there are not a lot of uneducated, unemployed, undocumented, Medicaid, WIC, EBT, 'living high on welfare' people in those zip codes high on the list. The further out you go, and the closer you get to undesirable neighborhoods, the demographics reflect reality.

It's just like a West U resident to be so picky.

as a West U resident I can guarantee you that your dislike of being called "West U" is not even close to our dislike of you being called "West U"

Gee, this list isn't rocket science. Richer parts of the city rank higher... Thanks for sharing though. Good to know I'm in the 3000s nationally.
