I never said I hated southern cities. I just am not in love with lower density newer cities. That's my opinion. They are still good places to raise a family and have fun, but it's not my style Ok. I am not trying to start a huge argument. I may have gone a little overboard because I was tired and cranky when I typed it, but no offense. I actually do like Houston (especially before all of those Katrina thug/section8 people moved there), but I am not saying the quality of life in many southern cities is bad. They are getting progressively better in terms of density and architecture, mass transit and so on. They are also becoming more progressive/liberal, but it is not turning most of the states blue because of the large swaths of conservative areas. Hopefully that changes like it did in North Carolina and Virginia.
Didn't mean to offend anyone.
