Wow thanks so much everyone, what great information! I've heard about Kingwood from a couple folks, so I'll have to take a look. However, I really like that Huffman listing!!! That's the kind.of more rural setting that I was had in mind. Niche, is there a map online that would give me a better idea of which areas in the counties you are referring to more exactly, or further description, so I could drive up to those locations? They sound rather broad to my non-native brain Cheers, EBS

Hi all! my wife and i are looking to relocate to Houston in a couple years, so I've begun the neighborhood search. I'm in town for a few days, and thought i might be able to check out a few locations with your help Background: we're 30, and will be looking to raise a family. we'll both be working dowtown, and would prefer to keep the commute to 45min or less. Our price range is in the three hundreds. We'd like to find a house in a more natural wooden setting, where your neighbors aren't really visible from inside your house - perhaps a one acre lot in the woods? we'd like a comfortable size for 2 or 3 kids, plus a study/exercise room/etc. Ideally, the kind of lot where you could put up a tree swing for the kids & let them run around the forest, and build an extra car garage/worshop for tinkering... Our preference for architecture is something solidly built to last - brick or stone or wood, not a stucco crapbox Age is not as important to me as construction & condition... Is something like this available in the Houston area? If so, I'd greatly appreciate your guidance as to what neighborhoods I should drive to this week to check out! Thanks again, EBS
