And which part of Houston is the "best" part to live in?
The further north the better. Less flooding, slightly higher ground, and you'll be in the front of many in the case of a hurricane evacuation.
For practacal purposes, living on FM 1960 is not a bad idea. A person can litteraly live there entire life on 1960. The can be born, attend day care, attend pre school through twelth grade, graduate up to a Docorates in college, and work all the way from bus boy tips to a Multi millionare salery. You can live all the way from Nursery to Nursing Home on FM 1960. You can rent apartment or buy homes. Not to mention, all your stores are there. Malls, dinners, bars, buffets, liqour stores, gas stations, bus stations, book stores, movie theaters, leather shops, sword shops, sushi bars, Waffel House etc.... You name it, it's there with in ten miles of driving. 1960 even has Gyms, Jenny Craig, Health Stores, and a store that sales nothing but Bras/undergarments. When living on FM 1960, there's no need to go anywhere else.
For the non Houstonians rading FM1960 isnt an oldies station - its a Farm to Market road. We Texans have "FM roads" "State Highways" roads that run halfway accross the state with different names in different towns... Like Fairmont Parkway is Fairmont Parkway from Laporte, through Deer Park, Though Pasadena, and once it crosses itnto south houston it becomes edgebrook and then like 2 miles up it becomes Laura Bush Blvd or something ... LOL
As for what ya said about FM 1960 thats true for a lot of roads on Houston. Shit, you can do the same thing on NASA Road 1 or Bay Area Blvd. The businesses in Houston are unbelievable! On Spencer Highway in Pasadena there is a combination Teen Driving School and Half Price Casket store. (I shit you not!) on Spencer in LaPorte they have a combination car wash/dog groomer/and Karate Dojo! My favorite though is on Old Galveston Road - a tacqeuria, washeteria (laundromat) and gun store! You can get lunch that will burn your asshole out, wash the skidmarks out of your shorts, and buy a pistol all in one stop LOL.
