I have read some blogs on Houston and most of the locals think all Mexicans are illegal emigrant and have little respect for the Hispanics. Is this true in Katy or any of the other out lying areas.
Legal immigrants - no problem. Katy has lots of Asians as well.

Illegal immigrants - more problem in C-D than in Katy or anywhere else LOL.

I am seeing a lot of Europeans in Katy everytime I visit friends

That is one of the perks of Katy.

At least for me

I've always heard Katy referred to as Katyzuela because it has a large venezuelan community.

EDIT: Just realized someone brought this thread back to life from 2009...

I can only assume, by reading this thread, that "White Washed" is reverse racism based and is synonymous with "civilized".

Katians are so close nitch they talk about everyone and everything..oh one more thing if you don't have a lot you will find that you have to keep up with the Jones in this community! Everyone is trying to be someone and if u r a little diff they don't take to you very well. So if you can hang with buying things u can't afford to put on a show for people, or having your kids academiically STRESSED out then go for it! Good luck!

A "bubble" ?!?!? I got news for you idiot... this sort of environment that you call a "bubble" is what most civilized people strive to achieve, and very much is the "real" world. You live in the real f&$ked up world. Instead of petty name calling, you're goal in life should be getting yourself and yours out of such an environment & not criticizing those those that worked hard enough to achieve it.

White washed = They don't sound or act black (ghetto) like they are supposed to. They must have been brainwashed with white culture.

That's not the way I think, I'm just giving you the real definition.

Thats the problem.. In this divided America, What the rest of the civilized world, white/black/brown/red/purple, deems a "normal safe environment".. A place where one wants to raise their kids with a good education and the least fear of violence, drugs, vices, etc... is somehow, in the USA, relegated to the realm of white people and is an achievement to be scoffed at or thought of as demeaning or somehow selling out. It's the most asinine thought process that I have ever heard of. The fact that some people strive to pull themselves away from these hellish realities doesn't make them more "white". It makes them more intelligent and they probably have more wealth, happiness, & less stress to show for it. But that's what its all about in the end... isnt it. If one guy pulls himself out of the hood, they rest of the lil hoodie rats that cant figure it out can only scoff & criticize.

Katy is where you live if you can't afford to live in Memorial or GOOF.

As you can see by the responses here, the most hateful comments are coming from non-whites, so you be judge.
