Miami is more like Houston than Austin is.
just moved back to miami from houston. i'm still amazed at how similar the cities are.
First time I went to Houston, all I could think was that it was a bigger version of Miami. It's not at all country like I thought it would be. It's actually a pretty dope city.
Side note: Best BBQ in south Florida is Blue Willie's on Commercial just east of Dixie. Tom Jenkins is close second.
Do explain. I've never seriously considered moving to Texas, but if Houston is like a big Miami I might have to take a closer look. I told my wife I'm done living in blue states. The cure for liberalism is trying to make a living in Hawaii for a few years, you'll get tired of the answer to every problem created by the fiscal irresponsibility of the 100% democrat government (Hawaii is the bluest state in the union) being more taxes.
It's a warm weather metropolitan city. Palm trees, no mountains, diverse population. Not quite as close to the coast as Miami but still relatively near the water. The majority of the Lation population is Mexican instead of Cuban but there's a cool blend of cultures. Naturally, there's plenty to do and see in such a big city, so getting bored is unlikely. It's on a short list of places I'd live if I ever left sunny south Florida.
