Much-Needed Assistance for Living in Houston
Houston is a major metropolis, with an amazing array of "to-do's" in and around it. This book gives you solid advice on places and events that are worthy of the time and expense involved in participating. A must read for anyone who is being transferred there, and a worthwhile investment for people who have lived there for years. Time and money savings alone are more than worth the cover price.

Why the high price ?
I am moving to Houston in January and I have been eyeing this book for a couple of months. The price for this used book is outrageous. That is why none of them have sold. if the book's price was a little more reasonable I would buy it.

Totally bias and unrealistic...
This woman must be a scared housewife. I was very offended with several of her descriptions of the average areas of Houston. Her research is scetchy and based off of rumors. I doubt she has ever visited many of the neighborhoods she calls "lackluster". Houston has lots to offer, just not in River Oaks. She leaves out several middle class neighborhoods alltogether while bashing ones with prices under 200k. Unless you are a millionare buying in super affluent areas of Houston, do not buy this book; it has no useful information for the average middle class buyer.
