Houston is a great city but it damn sure isn't a southern city. I've lived and traveled in every southern metro area in my career and Houston is it's own animal. it ain't southern, it ain't northern and it ain't western. the #1 thing that I can see that would describe Houston is that it's definitely Mexican. do not make a wrong turn off a Houston interstate (which it certainly leads the nation in these) or you will be the only person speaking English.

If you think Houston is Mexican, try San Antonio or the Rio Grande Valley. My guess is that you don't know "Mexican" when you see it.

I'll stick to my comment about Houston being a Southern City.

Anyone who believes this should not post on this silly thread anymore.

Houston was maybe southern 50 years ago, not anymore by a long shot.

If you want to feel white, southern and American go visit H-Town b/c you will be in the vast minority.

The most "Ethnic" (and Ethnic meaning Hispanic, Vietnamese, Middle Eastern and everything in between) city in a America cannot be Southern.
