I lived in Houston for one year. Weather was awful - rained three times per week, relentless humidity, some flooding. Traffic was as bad as anything I’ve experienced, and I’ve lived in a few major metro areas. Driving across town was a major event, the sort of thing you need to pack food for, as it will take most of your day. Finally, the air quality. I had the worst asthma of my adult life living in that city. The air was terrible. Now this was almost 25 years ago, so perhaps the air quality has improved. But I can’t imagine that anything else has.
