Suburbs

Hi, I wanted to ask about a few areas im looking to buy home. Im from out of state, although been to Houston i don’t know about porter, or magnolia texas.

Give me the details like school (although I have no kids and single but plan to), crime, stores, mall etc. Are they up and coming?

FYI I prefer to live in the suburbs, and its cheaper which is great. But plan on getting a usda loan which means I’ll be in the sticks. Lastly, how diverse? I don’t want to be the only black person out there.

Thanks

#MuseumStoreSunday – Support Houston Shops

Today is Museum Store Sunday, below is a list of a few local shops you can support when shopping for the holidays. Many of them have an online component.

Asia Society: https://asiastore.org

The Cottage Shop at Bayou Bend: https://www.mfah.org/visit/bayou-bend-collection-and-gardens/shop-bayou-bend/

Houston Museum of Natural Science: https://museumstore.hmns.org

The Menil Collection Bookstore: www.menil.org/bookstore

The MFA Shop: https://www.mfah.org/visit/museum-shop

I wish the Contemporary Arts Museum shop was open—it’s a great place to find ornaments and unique gifts.

Stay safe, mask up, and try to support small local businesses during this time if you are able. If you know of other good museum shops, add them in the comments!
