Yeah you probably dont want to live around Hobby.  Pretty rough in that area.

I emailed Frenchy and warned him about the "Pasadena Smell" too.

Yeah, all those roses can get overwhelming. ;)
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Mmm... you haven't been to Pasadena, TX right next to Hobby Airport. A rose will be the last thing that comes to mind.

Sounds like a great place to terrorise the neighborhood in my 1973 environement friendly big block.:)

Will see when i'll be there, I need a place with some kind of garage for my car. An underground parking structure might do. Maybe the area where u can see the air you breathe can have cheap $700ish house/garage rent. Plus it's close from work.
Dat jugs bro.

Terror flieger since 1941.

Im currently living in stinkadena.  Its a strange place.  most parts are not that great at all then the new area is really not bad at all.  Culture clash on fairmont parkway.  The refineries in pasadena up towards deerpark just freaking stink, all the time.  No idea why people live there.  But from where i live south to Ellington towards league city is not bad at all.

As to underground parking, umm maybe downtown has some.  the water table here is probably 2 ft.  Not much underground anything around here.

In this case the individual is the City of Pasadena, Tx.

My brother lives in Pasadena too.  If you don't mind the constant stench of the refineries it's not too bad.  Good luck in your move Frenchy!

Frenchy, welcome to Houston. I live about 30 miles SW of downtown. Despite the heat and humidity, I think you'll love it here. It has just about everything you could want, from country to cosmopolitan. Only problem is you have to drive forever to get anywhere. lol
