muddy mudguard

Thanks to all who have replied. This information is really useful. I think that when I met my wife she was living in an apartment complex just of Briar Forest. So that area definitely appeals. Plus it's pretty close to Sherlocks (where we first met) - me being the typical English Gent - swept her off her feet in a bar! LOL! Looking forward to finding my feet over there and embracing Houston culture!

Thanks v much for your reply! Hope you weren't too badly hit by Ike!

Thanks v much for your response - see my answers to your questions below. I'm looking forward to becoming an honorary Texan!

My wife (a Texan with family in Houston area) and myself (a Brit) are moving to Houston after having lived in the UK for the last 3yrs together. We have a 15month old baby boy (currently) and anticipate us moving in June 2009. Currently I have no job arranged although will certainly try to arrange one before we come (I work in IT Sales for a Software Company) previously worked for BMC (5yrs+) here in the UK. I'm trying to figure out where to live. My wife is keen on Sugarland but I would also like to explore other suburbs so that we have a 'choice'. Any suggestions you could give would be appreciated.
