Well, if you are looking for a very conservative, friendly, but hot in the summer place, look into Bryan/College Station. Housing is one of the best bargins in the U.S. Private schools are great. Homeschools are popular. Churches are conservative. Winters are mild....summers are hot. We are located 1hr away from Houston and 3 hrs away from Dallas/Ft.Worth....which is close enough for big time shopping if you desire, Opera, museums, etc. George Bush Library located here...they always have great stuff going on.
forgot to mention...if you want a $400,000 house, you will get a mansion. Oh...Texas A&M here also, so it is a football town, if you so desire.
Whoop! GoAggiesGo!
