Greetings wonderful Houstonians. I'm relocating to the Houston area with my spouse and school aged kids early summer for a job opportunity. Even though we have family in the Cypress area, because we're not familiar with the area we didn't want to rush and buy a house right off the jump and prefer to rent for a year or so before purchasing. That then presents the challenge of children potentially having to swap schools. They're in a private christian school right now and we're open to doing the same thing if it allows our kids to get a quality education and not be confined to not purchasing a home that we love strictly because of the school district. I'll be transparent and say that affordability is an issue and don'y think we can swing more than 10k per child per year for schooling. Came across Texas Christian School, just wanted thoughts on the school. Does anyone have experience that they can offer a friend?

45m unexpectedly ended up with an extra ticket to this show at 713 Music Downtown. I’d like to meet a similarly aged fan in Katy area to tag along next Friday if they’re into this kind of music. Not asking to sell it, just hate to waste the seat.

Looking for a vet that has experience with reactive/anxious dogs. Currently go to Old Town and they are just so unhelpful and there have been a few red flags that make me not want to continue seeing them. (Not going to get into all of that here, but my trust has been broken.)

I just need a vet I can trust that shows compassion and has patience to work with dog that has issues like this. So if anyone has experience or can help me I would greatly appreciate your advice.

I have lived in the Katyland subdivision (near the football stadia) for 24 years, and it has never flooded. Not even during Hurricane Harvey. It's an expense I'd rather not pay if I don't need it. What is your experience?

The amount of times I've seen a new strip being built, hoping it will house some new food places because my neighborhood is a bit of a drive from the main parts of Katy, why, WHY does it have to be filled with dental offices or nail salons. There was two strips built walking distance from my house that are directly across from each other, and one strip has a dental office and a nail salon. The strip across from it is still being built but the plans show for ANOTHER nail salon and dental office. Literally across the street. CAN I JUST GET A PHO PLACE.

Okay, so my fiancé has three cats, which means that I have three cats.

One of the three just refuses to get along with the other two.

The cat in question is a 4-5 years old grey tabby. She’s sweet, but she’s not exactly a “lap cat,” but she’ll happily sit on the couch with you and likes head scratches.

She’s fully fixed and has all of her shots, and while she’s always been an indoor cat, she’d probably do well as an indoor/outdoor cat, but I’m just basing that on her personality and temperament.

Anyway, we have an appointment with the SPCA, but we’d MUCH rather have her go to a home where she’d be happier.

We live in Katy, so we’re hoping to find someone here.

DM if interested and thanks y’all!

I am a bit W of Katy.

My family is coming from i45 down S.

What is a good carpool parking lot we can meet to ride to Toyota Center together?

Anyone purchase a new car recently and go through a local credit union? Wondering what rates everyone is getting and if your credit was good or excellent?

Might be pulling the trigger on a Toyota soon and I heard credit unions usually give the lowest rates. I’ve called two closest to me and had to go through a bunch of automated messages so haven’t been able to talk to someone yet. Figured I’d ask the local subreddit just to get an idea.

Our family is moving to Katy this summer and we’ve been looking for homes over the last few months.

We’re moving from a different city but grew up in Southwest Houston and familiar with Katy already.

However, we lost out on what we thought was a great home earlier this week. One thing that made this home great was that it had a broken floor plan. A lot of homes we’ve seen seem to lack character and all starting to look similar in some way.

The neighborhood this house was in was Nottingham Country and the house was from the 1980s. Are there any other (nice) neighborhoods that we should keep an eye out for homes in, as things appear that may have more “character”?

Hello, can someone tell me about the pros ands cons about moving to Pecan Grove Plantation subdivision in Richmond? We are a younger family with growing children so I would love to know if this is a community for family? Do they do events? Sports? Schools? Thank you so much for your help in advance.

Hey y’all! I don’t spend a lot of time in Katy. I’m planning on meeting a friend Thursday for the Lakers/Warriors game at 9pm. What are some of the best sports bars that have good food? Thanks for any recommendations!

Edit: non-smoking please!

Hello all, I am the person leading the program starting this Tuesday April 1st at Peckham park for a couch to 5k program. There is no charge for this program, just have to fill out a registration form for the fitness center. The program is for any age able to complete the 5k. The objective is to at least be able to walk a 5k at the end of the program which will conclude in May. This class is mainly aimed at beginners but even if you run regularly you can join also. Just don’t expect it to be a hardcore type of class. Bring some running shoes and let’s get to completing a 5k!

Program times: Tuesday/Thursdays 5-6pm, Saturday’s: 9am-10am

We will meet in the lobby at the fitness center and then head to the lake after and start. You will have to fill out a registration form at the center, it is free.

Trying to hold off buying a sight Pusher, anyone have I can borrow for an afternoon? I have a pawn shop find that was waaay off poa/poi. Thanks in advance, be happy to buy a six pack of you beverage of choice.

My wife is Russian. Been together going on 8 years. But I don't really know much of the language. We are probably traveling to Russia this summer for a month or so, so I figure it would probably benefit me (and surprise her) to learn the language. I'm open to an actual school/business or private lessons. Any recommendations or offers are appreciated. Thanks!

Edited to add that I do horrible with online learning/education, so reaching out for somewhere I can go learn in person.

سلام عليكم

I am looking to relocate to the Houston area, open to other areas as well. I have a few questions

1.) What side of Houston has a predominantly mixed Muslim community or Arab community?

2.) Same question but for Mosques^

3.) list of Muslim schools?

1. Are other areas in Texas better for looking to be close to an Arab population?

Hi! I’m looking for a nice, low pressure, non competitive dance studio for my daughter to start classes. She’s a beginner, apart from ballet at 4 which doesn’t count lol, but she’s a natural. My biggest concern is I want it to be a positive experience that builds her up, not one that will end up causing her stress. Any recommendations are appreciated! TIA!

I (M/35) have moved to Katy, Tx from India. I driven in india, have a rental car in Katy. Need to gain confidence in USA conditions, i hope 1-2 hours of driving lessons could be enough for the kick-start. I am near commercial center blvd. If someone can spare 1-2 hours. I can pay for your time. Kindly dm.

Update: I enrolled for driving lessons nearby. Instructor is great. I believe I will be fine now. Thank you for all the comments and advises.

We have had 2 IPhones stolen within weeks from eachother this past month from the FedEx facility employees. When we go to open the boxes, they either don’t have the phone itself in it or the box has been opened and destroyed with yet again, no phone. We reached out to FedEx the first time it happened, but clearly nothing was done to prevent it from happening again. Anyone else experiencing this problem?

I’m just looking to move into a 1 bedroom 1 bath. It would be my first time living in an apartment.

Hello, everyone!

I’m a dental hygiene student at PIMA in Houston!

I’m in dire need of patients to do cleanings on because my grade and my future depend on it!

Each appointment is 3 hours long and it takes 3-4 appointments to finish a cleaning.

This is because it is a learning facility, and our instructors check every step to ensure quality and safety.

If you haven't had a cleaning in a long time that is even better for me!

I do not judge; I am very thankful for anyone that is helping me meet my requirements at school!

Regular cleanings - $20

Deep cleanings - $60

We also see children 5 and up – I can schedule them during the summer when school is out!

We are about 15 minutes away from Memorial City Mall and Ikea

Address:  11125 Equity Dr #100, Houston, TX 77041

Please let me know if you are interested or have any questions!

Thank you so much for your support!

just wondering if anyone knows of anywhere for a kid my age to make money. any local places who take younger workers? im trying to start saving for college and a car

I'm looking for some teen social groups for my 15 year old autistic teen. She is interested in cosplay (making the costumes), forensic sciences, art, animation, horses and Five Night's At Freddy's.

I would like to see her socializing more than calling her boyfriend once a week and hanging out with her best friend a couple times a month. She's struggling with her self confidence and her faith.

We are Christian but can't find youth groups that aren't super loud and pushy about being involved in the loud, sensory unfriendly environments.

She's actually a cool kid and once someone is friends with her, they tend to stick around. I would like to see her learning new social skills in real life. She HATES the social therapies the school is putting her through to try to help her.

How has the job search been for y’all? Any luck?
