Enough with the craven, obsequious flattery, already. ;-)

No zoning - a great blessing. You can find a free, open neighborhood like mine, or some anal retentive neighborhood where they micromanage every aspect of your property. Your choice.

Relentless urban sprawl - which is the way we like it. If you choose to live in an insectile "urban" hive, cool. We don't.

No mass transit - horsepuckey. What are all the empty busses I see everywhere ? What are the downtown toy trains, with 100 wrecks the first year ? The damn mass transit bureaucracy sucks 1% sales tax out of every pocket. We'd be much better off with NO mass transit.

Flat as a board - largely true.

Hordes of illegals - way too true.

It's not worth commenting on the rest.

Glad you like it, I don’t, you can keep it and in fact the more who do like it and stay there the better.

That’s what makes horse races.

As a native Houstonian myself, I've noticed something about transplants who arrive here and find almost nothing to their liking, so much so that they continually complain about everything associated with the place.

None of them ever hate it enough to leave.
