    Girl! I think the best advice is to look at the year the apartment was built. You may loose square footage but you’ll have less 🪳 80s &90s early 2000s run. Really look for 2020 and newer. Personally I like prefer Richmond, TX & Missouri City, just close enough. The people down here though are to comfortable living with pest.

      Thank you for the advice. I’ve only had 2 apartments here so far and both were brand new first to live in them. I’ve only seen 2 roaches since I’ve moved here so thankfully it’s not an issue for me but some of my friends have had really bad issues especially with the older apartments. I will definitely look into those areas as well, thank you 💕

    I felt the SAME way when I move to Houston…they will waste your time and not care, scam you, the roaches was terrible and big as hell and I am not about that life, I was calling the health dept and everything! Them light bills can get high but weather is pretty nice in TX in general. I HATED Houston…got out of there real quick! Moved closer to Austin and no more apartment bldgs! With getting help, that’s TX period, this is the “Fend For Yourself State!”

    So the “roaches” you are talking about are called “waterbugs”. They are big ass roaches and some of them even fly. They usually come out after it rains or when it’s hot and humid. The smaller roaches like to infest dirty indoors, but waterbugs don’t typically cause an infestation. You only see a couple at a time.

    I agree about the resources. I am from Minnesota and it is a Democratic State and you have all the resources available to you. When I moved her to Dallas, TX I found there is no resources here. Huge difference from Minnesota. It is all of Texas. All of Texas does not have resources because this is a Republican state. I even lived in Phoenix, Arizona for 5 years and even they have resources.

    Thanks for making this video. If you’re thinking about moving to Africa just know that their justice system is totally different. Limited women’s rights is why polygamy is popular there - some women put up with it in exchange for protection because there’s no true police system in some places. Also be aware of love scams (foreigners using Americans for citizenship). Remember, it’s a 3rd world country. Many businesses don’t have access to computers or internet. Driving on roads can also be a challenge
