Have you relocated during the pandemic and if so share the good or bad about the process?
Don’t vote Democrat when you get here.
@@TexasTeaHTX Thanks for watching.
@@TexasTeaHTX That's none of your business. They how they like and prefer.
spending time together is a plus but now that we can seems so negative and this pandemic should bring people closer to God but some folks going the wrong direction I love spending time with family I have time to smell the Roses and be creative y'all stay safe

Houston is the most friendly city anyone can find themselves. Houston is very diversified. Very affordable
Yes, we have met some really good people in Houston so far! Thanks for watching.
You are absolutely correct I have lived all over Texas I current am in San Antonio but wanna move back to Htown
I’m excited for you both!! Once the normalcy returns, Houston has a lot to offer, from restaurants to wineries, etc., it’s a fun time. I moved here from L.A. about 15yrs ago, by myself and I managed to find my way around and it really grew on me. I currently live off of 1960 NE. In addition, “The LUKE” is a nice church that you may like if you’re close to the area. Well, I wish you both the best. Take care & Stay Safe!
Thanks for sharing. Awesome to hear you moved here by yourself, that's not easy at all. We will look into that church The Luke as well. Thanks for watching!
Hey guys I'm new to Houston as well. And I came from Baltimore Maryland. You guys are right about living in that cold weather it brings you mood down. I been here for 2 years now and I'm loving it down here.
That’s wassup! What are some of your favorite spots in Houston?
@@HanginWithTheYoungs ..I really don't have a favorite spot yet. My first year here I was working so much that I don't have the time to explore. And when my second year came around the covid19 situation hit. So I still feel new but as far as the city and surrounding areas it's a different world from the east coast and I love it .
@@HanginWithTheYoungs been here all my life. When you're asking about favorite spots what do you mean? Church, clubbing, restaurants/brunch, family time? What are you looking for?
I’ll surely be glad when the pandemic is completely over. Y’all got to get out and truly get to know Houston. I love my city. My husband and I don’t club or nothing. We do movies dates and dinner dates. But it’s so many different places and things to do, we don’t get too bored. Welcome Home!💜💜💜
Thanks for watching! It is a lot to do in Houston. We definitely gotta get out more lol.
I'm from the South Suburbs of Chicago. I can truly relate to going to work in daylight and driving home in the dark at 4:30pm. To make matters worst we are in the middle of a snow storm. Seasonal disorder is real and I am planning my transition to Texas in the next year. Thank you guys for this encouraging video.
We wish you all the best! Thanks for watching.
So glad I stumbled across this video. My husband and I just moved to Houston as well. We’re two weeks in and trying to figure out how to build community in the midst of a pandemic. I’d love to hear about your search for a church home as we’re in that search as well. Congratulations on your 1 year anniversary here!
Welcome to Houston! Will keep you posted on our search for a church home. We have heard good things about The Lighthouse Church in Humble/Spring,Tx. That’s one on our list to check out for sure.
Lighthouse Church is Awesome. We moved here from Atlanta in 2015! I'm not a member, but I visit here & there. It's a drive for me, but I do enjoy it. Welcome to Houston!
Shout out to Htown I love it been here for 2yrs coming from NY and this city has made my quality of life change has made my bussiness explode and I love the weather no snow 70degrees in the winter it’s cheap gas rent food black people doing good police don’t Harrass you as much what more can you ask for
We love it too! Definitely a better quality of life from chicago/NY. More affordable, great for entrepreneurs, weather. We are excited to keep building here.
Great video....yall made an Excellent move coming to Houston....Welcome!!!
Thank you for the welcome! We feel the same. Do you have any church recommendations? We came from a non-denomination, bible-based church in Chicago. Would love to hear your thoughts.
Nice video. We did the same thing. We moved to Houston(Seabrook) a year ago as well and it has been a blessing beyond belief. We have JUST found a church in Pearland called Silverlake Church. Tomorrow will be our 3rd week attending and it seems phenomenal so far. (If that helps a bit. ) My family is from Chicago so I hear you on the weather thing. Keep the videos coming! Y'all will bless many families along the way!
Thanks for watching! We will look into your church. Thanks for sharing!
Me , my wife and five kids moved here from Mississippi in 2018 April. We love it and our kids love it here. We also just purchased our first home and it's beautiful, very poor credit because of the pandemic. OPPORTUNITIES!!!!!!!
Congrats on the purchase of your first home!
That's AWESOME. We move here in 2015 from Atlanta! Congratulations! On the new home!
I’ve been here for a year and a half from Cleveland Ohio, everything y’all said is true especially with time with the kids, and the weather is great going to be 79 today
Cleveland in the house! Thanks for watching. Yes, the weather is great. We just took a morning walk in February! lol that's not possible back home lol.
@@HanginWithTheYoungs no not at all, I’m about to hop on my motorcycle in February, this is great. I like you have not meet to many people due to the pandemic and working from home but I was here a few months prior and it will get back to being a live city.
Cool I just moved to Houston from Auckland, New Zealand
Clarence Tillman quite the transition! Welcome to Texas!
Wow! Welcome to Houston. Thanks for watching!
Wow welcome here . I was just telling someone how I wanna visit New Zealand Christchurch
The few people who say good things about Houston. And omg what a beautiful couple 😉
Thanks for watching! Yes, we love us some Houston. Blessed to call Houston home.
Houston sucks it’s hot af all the time and it’s boring
Your neighbor was so correct! The rodeo was definitely one of Houston’s annual highlights pre-covid. Please update us on your journey of finding a church. I can make some recommendations based on your spiritual and familial needs.
Yeah we were bummed we missed the Rodeo but know they’ll be more to come. Absolutely, we’d love to hear your recommendations on non-denominational, bible-based churches.
I live in NYC. I'm getting a new apartment but I'm considering moving to HTX. I'm moving during the summer.
We are wishing you all the best!
The Young's thx, update: with everything going on there I think I'll just stay in NYC.
Hola I have fam in Brooklyn an spent some of my younger childhood there but mostly outside Pittsburgh area.. I have lived many years in Houston was in oil field so lived al over Texas I live in San Antonio now but wanna move back to Houston
Try Nashville, TN... the job market is booming
This literally happened to me and my hubby, such a bummer. We enjoyed at least a year though. Enjoy the opening up.
Geris thanks for watching! We are definitely looking forward to the state opening up lol.
I relocated to Iowa almost 10 years ago but as I get older I never thought I would want to be back in Illinois my family never moved from Illinois I did and I do sometimes I wish I stayed because I had more stability in Illinois and my same life as a child the same thing church, child hood home, everything is still the same and I'mover 40.
Thanks for watching!
I have been planning on moving to Texas since 2018 but had to postpone it do to a personal situation but now that is out the way I have been planning and saving so I can move. I have been having so fears of it because I don't have family out there but I believe everything will be fine.
Totally understand. It can be tough moving to a state with no family but the distance makes you appreciate them even the more. For us, it’s allowed us to grow stronger as individuals and as a unit. and I believe it will for you too. Best wishes to you in your journey.
Great video and welcome to Texas🎉. I live in Dallas but have family I visit in Houston sometimes. If you’re still looking for a church, check out The Lighthouse Church of Houston, located in Humble. I got the chance to visit that church a few years ago & had an awesome worship experience! May God continue to Bless your family💜
Thanks for the recommendation! We've heard so much about Lighthouse Church. We will be taking a visit soon. Thanks for watching!
I'm so glad I just found y'all's page...I'm thinking of moving to Houston from North Carolina. Thanks for sharing this insightful information. Blessings, and Best regards to your Beautiful family in all your endeavors!
Congratulations on moving out here, ut is so much out here that I haven't even known about or discovered but hopefully you live in Katy or Southwest Houston and buy a EZ tag for quick access to where you need to go during traffic
Thank you! Yes we live in southwest Houston and definitely have an EZ tag. We’re ready to explore!
I just did officially this week. It was rough because I had a job that made me travel alot and technically hadn't left, but all my stuff was moved to Houston about 2 months before!
Wow sounds like quite the story! Hopefully things have gotten better with the transition.
Congratulations to your move to Houston. I grew up in Atlanta. I heard some great things about Houston. I wonder about the hurricanes and floods there. I hope to relocate to Charlotte, NC.
Did you think about Nashville, TN. The Economy is growing.
Not at all lol. To country for us. We do want to visit in the near future.
Thank you! Wishing you the best with the move to NC
@@HanginWithTheYoungs Okay, would you say that Houston is boring? Is it a great city for single professionals in their 20’s?
Trying to move my family of 4 to Houston now- excited and nervous 😀
Any suggestions from current houstonians on where to live for suburbs? Moving with a 4 year old and 2 month old. Looking for a beautiful clean scenic place with a lot of things to do for kids, beautiful parks, a lot of shopping centers, luxury apartments etc.? I was thinking Katy but are there other areas I should consider?
Katy is already a very strong choice for what you’ve described. The only downside is that it’s not really apart of Houston like other suburban areas like Sugarland, Clear Lake, Pearland, or The Woodlands. Still though, Katy is wonderful. The closest to it would be the Memorial City (where my wife and I currently live) part of Houston, located on the west side, just inside of the Energy Corridor.
@@CourtneyLloydGrear This was so helpful, thank you! I will have to look at Memorial City as well to explore my options.
just dont forget where you at when u visit Hustletown,TX.. pop pop pop pop pop ..
Houston is at its limit, dont come stay where ya at!
@Garrett Work lmaooooo facts!!!
I live in Florida I want to move in Houston, I thank you for this,
Welcome to the H! Houston is a great city especially with a family. Lots to do with a chill vibe. We have great festivals, food, museums and cultural events. Wishing y’all the very best. Maybe I’ll have an opportunity to meet y’all out and about 🙂
Thanks so much! What are some of the festivals and cultural events we should be on the look out for? We are so ready to explore!
@@HanginWithTheYoungs Honestly I always look forward to the Italian and Greek Festivals at St. Thomas University each year. The International Festival and Children Festival were great as well.
Love you guys already! moving from Chicago to Houston after graduation.
Make that moves lol. Wishing you all the best! Thanks for watching.
I’m born and raised here in houston me and my wife don’t club we got to farmer markets and movies and things of that nature we may go to a bar but it’s still things to do museum are free on Thursday’s 😎
Thanks for sharing. We plan on visiting a museum here soon!
Moved to Houston from NY in 2014. Best of luck on your journey. Houston is a great city with much growth and opportunities.
Thank you! We appreciate you watching our video and supporting or channel.
Love the channel I’m here for it 🔥❤️
Thanks for watching!
You’re very welcome guys God bless 🙏🏽
Congrats to being in Tx for one year!!!
Thank you!!
We are Both VETs & Now Feds - coming from CHI w 2 girls too !! . . . Should be Transfer’d by July ‘21. Blessings & Health to Your Family💯🙏🏼
Thank you!
Houston born awesomenessss
Dope! Thanks for watching
I have about 7 or 8 friends who've moved here from Chicago. They all love it. If you can handle a lil flooding and super hot summers, you good. We just don't need no more people moving here. HOUSTON IS AT CAPACITY!!!!!! lol
Lol I get it. And the floodgates opened with Covid. Good thing there’s ALOT of land lol
So your 8 friends were invited and accepted but the rest of the world isn’t lol
HTown has no more room! *signed native Houstonian* LOL 😆 hopefully you all get to enjoy the city there is amazing culture here. Nightlife, family life, day events the city is bomb!
Lol I get it. And with the pandemic, the flood gates have opened lol. Would love to hear spots to check out. Nightlife, day events, cultural events, what’s poppin’?
@@HanginWithTheYoungs when outside is truly open again Miller outdoor theater is an amazing place for free events for adults and kids. Every summer they do motown review its a big thing bring your boo sit on the hill or in the seats and have your wine and snacks. All of the museums in the museum districts are worth visiting. The kids will definitely love the children's museum. Depending on the area since Houston has many smaller areas make sure you check out your areas events. Discovery green, Cynthia woods Pavillion, so many places have constant events never a dull moment. I can't wait for this COVID-19 to calm down so we can have some normalcy again.
Coming from Chicago soon! And I can not WAIT 😊
Hoping your transition goes smoothly! Best wishes. You’re going to love it!
Hey Yall. Im a 22 year old music producer from detroit and im looking for a new place to be. I considered houston because the vibe is amazing. I lived in atlanta & it was cool but just over saturated. I want to move to Houston but I have a huge fear... Hurricanes. Starting off I planned on moving to Houston and staying at a band rehearsal room so I have a secure place to be as loud as I want and then grind my way so I can afford to keep my studio & get an apartment. But the fear off hurricanes keeps attacking me. I'll be moving here alone with no family and I just keep thinking about me bringing 10k worth of music equipment I worked so hard for to get damaged. Thats all I have.. I know theres apartments thats designed to not be flooded but I wouldnt be able to make music or mix songs loud there.. any thoughts and opinions ?? Good luck & hope you achieve everything you want. Stay safe everyone!!
Perfect Cell Im a native Texas so understand the fear. Try n move somewhere elevated and/or inland. The further from the coast you are the better. Houston made a lot of improvements since Harvey but it's an old city and some streets are prone to flooding. Dont let fear stop you from making a life for yourself, when those storms come Texas comes together. Good luck.
Atlanta and Memphis have a black population of 60%+, so are better places for blacks to live. This is about culture. Hurricanes scare me, too -- mostly the mold from flooding and forced evacuations.
@@lechsiz1642 for me ATL was cool good vibe its just too many people trying to do the same thing down there. I want to try something new. If you listen to hip hop I make like Travis Scott, Don Toliver, synthesized production & alot of don toliver producers/sound designers either working in Houston or LA. I figured the "living in Band Rehearsal studio idea to save money" is what made my fear of hurricanes even more.. Im thinking of getting a better paying job & create more income and lease a nice 2nd level/floor apartment. I dont think the water will flood a 2nd floor.. if it does then Houston we have a problem...pun intended
Harvey was a once in a lifetime hurricane. The media made it worse than it really was
love your vlogs, keep it up folks!
We appreciate your support 💯
you guys addressin' serious stuff!
Seriously lol. Thanks for watching 💪🏾
Good luck trying to find steady employment with the oil gas industry being a bust and layoffs every 2 to 3 years yikes !!!, I moved out of there in 2015 to Tennessee...best move I made ...to each is own ..
now gainfully employed going on 6 years with the same company, Houston is a hit or miss, it's tough to survive down with unstable job market .. good luck !!
Thanks for sharing Samuel. Thankfully we’ve been able to build a couple streams of income. We also own a business and have found Houston has a good entrepreneurship community. Best wishes to you in Tennessee! We know a few people who moved there.
I moved to Houston from Queensland Australia 2 years ago.
Wow, that’s amazing. How do you like Houston?
Interesting, what do you think of it?
No y'all did not make a mistake to move to Houston TX
We did not. We love it here! Thanks for watching!
Glad you guys are happy and things are working out for you all. You said you like the weather, my question is, how was the humidity?
They must mean in the winter, because in the summer the weather is to hot and humid to do anything outdoors.
In the summer it's a beast!
@@bcandydrews859 how long does it typically last when it is too hot/humid to be outside? Would having a house with a pool or trips to the lake/beach help with getting the family outside during that time?
@@HanginWithTheYoungs how do you beat the summer heat/humidity? Would a pool or trips to the lake/beach help get the family out during those times? How long does the humid/heat last?
@@HanginWithTheYoungs i am in CA. and my wife and I are considering moving us and our 2 boys out that way, but the hot/humid weather has us concerned if we can handle that
I’m in Houston and I love it but the real question is does she have a sister? Asking for a friend
mark rivers; street name bamboo
I'm the friend I can ask for myself 😂
My husband and I are planning to move to Houston this year from Michigan, do you recommend a area in Houston that’s good to raise a family in ? We are looking to buy a home
We are still learning the areas too but I think Sugar Land and Katy is good.
Katy, Humble, Spring, Sugarland, Cinco Ranch, Richmond, Rosenberg
@@HanginWithTheYoungs FACTS I live in sugar Land...
We are Houstonians and we just built our home in Humble/Atascocita area this is considered northeast great place to raise a family with lots and lots of young professional couples its beautiful...Katy is nice but it's is packed out there I 10 west area...sugarland you are going to have a massive amounts of east Indians and isian. Communities...you can build homes from the mid 250's and up some are lower...With that being said WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME to Houston🥰
@@Just-Joyce4009 Summerwood & Balmoral is beautiful. Everything, at your fingertips! Humble Area.
No I don’t think y’all made a mistake I would love to live in Houston houses are so beautiful
We agree! Thanks for watching!
Hi I live in Austin n happen to stumble across your video I'm thinking about moving to Houston in October of this year...Trying to figure out what areas might work
Thanks for watching! We've only lived here for a year and with the pandemic we haven't truly explored the city. We recommend you try to visit a few times before October To get a true feel. So far we really are enjoying our experience here in Houston. Best wishes with everything.
Definitely move out here, try looking in riveroaks, Katy and Southwest Houston plus it's so much stuff to do out here
@@areliusmcgregor8423 awesome thank you so much as long as I can avoid the water/flood areas I'll be good to go
You're talking about 288, it should be fixed now but people live 15-20 minutes south of there
Yes I’m in Chicago now and under the covers since earlier 🥴😩😩🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol Thanks for watching. Stay safe and stay warm!
Beautiful people and relationship!
Thank you!
beautiful couple
Thank you!
I’m planning to move from CA to TX. I don’t know anybody there either. I don’t even know which area I would like ti live... I took a trip there in May for a week in the Woodlands area which is the area I had seen on the internet and I really liked it, but when I stayed there, I couldn’t see myself living there. It’s beautiful, but coming from L.A. to a small area like that, was a shock for me. I then visited Spring and I liked it, but again, I could not picture myself there. I did. It visit any other area because they’re all communities and it is very hard to know was good or not. But anyway, any advice on different places? I have no small kids, will be retired by when I move.
Next time explore downtown, sugarland, richmond, stafford areas.
keep it up folks! 💪
Will do! Thanks for watching.
Hey are there jobs that are felon friendly. I’m moving from Chicago. do they check for out of state felonies ?
I don't think it was a mistake!
Us neither we are so happy to be here! Thanks for watching
Can’t wait me and the fam moving Jan-Feb timeframe we moving to Katy thou any experiences about Katy?
Katy is an amazing place to live!
have you guys dealt with any huricanes or floods in the last year? God bless
We had two warnings but nothing that hit Houston. We got our hurricane preparation kit stored and ready tho.
@@HanginWithTheYoungs thanks when i move this year maybe my family could meet yours haha stay safe
Is Houston open up completely, or limited?
It’s open everything pretty much has been open no one follows protocol out here I go everywhere
@@melmatrix2k12Thanks, our Gyms in LA are closed and we dont know when they'll reopen.
@@tishreni5183 I been going back to the gym since June there all open All restaurants concerts it. Feels normal I forgot it was still a lockdown until I went to ny
you guys are cool! 👏
Thanks
Great video! Where did you move from? I am planning to move their too
Thanks for watching. We moved here from Chicago.
you 2 a great couple!
Thanks
Houston kool I’ve been here my whole life,just stay away from greens point,sunnyside,SouthPark,third ward,and the southwest side and you’ll be fine
Basically all my old stomping grounds. LMAO
We pulling up to each one lol 💪🏾 love my people- Dione
How old are y’all? Just curious I’m 32 single no kids... would Houston be a good fit for me?
I’m 32 and yes, Houston would definitely be a good fit for you. When we moved here the one thing we noticed right away was so many young people ages 18-35 everywhere. - Dione
@@HanginWithTheYoungs appreciate it fam!! I’m looking to move down there in September! Or December. I will keep you posted my brotha!!
Welcome to Houston. I'm a Realtor born and raised here. If you have any questions I can probably be a great resource for you.
Thank you Kimberlee!
learning houston! 1up! 👍
Thanks for watching
What Church do you attend.
I hope y'all don't have allergies /sinus issues because if you too don't you can be desensitized on my goodness and anywhere anyone has covid issues ,etc fill in the blanks and compare where y'all left
Hey, you two. Just happened to see this video tonight. Welcome to Houston. It seems as though you're slowly, but surely getting acclimated to the city, I'm glad about that. Not sure if I can offer any assistance. If I can, don't hesitate to hit me up. Hope to hear from you soon. Be safe. Take care.
We appreciate you watching and offering your assistance. Would love to hear your thoughts on your favorite places to go, things to do, and even recommendations for a non-denominational bible-based church?
@@HanginWithTheYoungs Wow, there are plenty of places to visit...can't wait to get back out and visit them in a place of normalcy, whatever that will look like. I'm not too familiar with the non-denominational churches, but I can give you a recommendation....The Lighthouse Church, Keion Henderson, pastor. He's good. Two others are Baptist Churches that aren't that traditional... Wheeler Ave Baptist Church, Rev Marcus Cosby, pastor. He's from the Southside of Chicago. Another, The Church Without Walls, Rev. Ralph West, pastor. Each one of these churches are on different sides of town, but for now, you can tune in on line and catch them. One more, Fallbrook Church on Walters Rd.
Popular places to eat... Let me ask, what type of food do you like? That would help in narrowing down the favorite list. At the top of everyone's list is Pappadeaux and we can go from there...
Mardi Gras weekend in Galveston or the Houston Rodeo would be perfect places to go right now and enjoy as a family, however, both were cancelled this year due to Covid. I'll be glad when things start to open up. There will be more events, especially in the summer, that will be fun...I'll have to think of those.
I hear you guys 🎼🎵
lol
What about the dmv and becoming a resident
Not a hard process at all.
Please dont Chicago my Texas!
Not sure what that means.
Too late.
Maybe keep TX red. Keep out the woke.
