The Importance Of Moving To The City Of Houston
I’m from a city where it's best known for being the headquarters of NASA or being the 4th largest city in the United States. But too most people who actually live there would agree that it's also one of the most boring cities. However, Houston is still a city that I very much appreciate and proud to be from because there's no place like home. My parents having me and such a young age I’ve lived in an apartment near Stafford for at least two years, till I moved to Meadows Place which is right outside of Alief. Most people think my neighborhood is a quiet peaceful environment, which is for the most part but there's been so many crazy homicides recently that my parents have decided that we should move to Spring during the summer. But Meadows Place

    Texas is a majesty of her own, rich in history and events that shaped its development into the state that it is today. Starting from its settlement of anglo-americans throughout 1821-1835, under the government of Mexico, to the annexation of Texas into the united states in 1845, and the modern Texas we live in today.

    I was born in Newton Wellesley Hospital in Massachusetts and lived in Brookline MA for 2 years. After that I moved to Westborough MA with my mom, dad and brother. For the next 16 years after that I still live in the same house. Westborough is known for its terrible drivers, Dunkin Donuts, useless police force and buildings. Growing up in a town like this is relaxing and very subtle. There has never been much to do in the town though, which makes it a little boring but very quiet. I had always wished to move somewhere else but when I leave town and come back I feel at home when I enter Westborough because it is where I grew up and learned everything I know today.…
