Houston def has its share of fortune 500 companies headquarters.

4) Phillips 66
45) ConocoPhillips
64) Enterprise Products Partners
65) Sysco Corp
77) Plains All American Pipeline
106) Halliburton Co
135) Baker Hughes Inc.
144) National Oilwell Varco
167) Apache Corp
174) Marathon Oil Corp
200) Waste Management
207) Anadarko Petroleum Corp
233) EOG Resources
265) Kinder Morgan
310) Cameron International
314) NRG Energy Inc.
334) KBR Inc.
343) Group 1 Automotive
344) CenterPoint Energy Inc.
381) Enbridge Energy Partners
397) Quanta Services Inc.
417) FMC Technologies Inc.
435) Targa Resources
451) MRC Global
459) Calpine Corp.
475) Spectra Energy

This list doesn't even include the companies that have large offices and divisions in Houston such as ExxonMobil, Chevron, Shell, BP, Citgo. Its clear the Oil and Gas run this town.

As far as Houston not being international enough? Fort Bend County was listed as the most diverse county in the United States. The Oil and Gas business has brought people in from all over the world to work and live here.

As far as the humidity, it sucks. no tip toeing around that. The Europeans wouldn't last more than 5 minutes outside. I was in Dubai 2 summers ago working on a vessel with some brits and they were having trouble with the high heat and humidity (yes it gets humid in the middle east) while my boss and i held up well as we're used to it.
