We have had three gators in our neighborhood. Lake Jackson, on the Gulf coast, south of Houston. Lots of creeks and rivers and ponds and lakes around here. Lots of nutria and alligators around here, too. One was 11 1/2 ft. long, our neighbor got into BIG TROUBLE for shooting that gator as it attacked him and his dog.

You're right! There are beaucoup gators to the south and east of Houston.
