Housing in Westchester compared to Houston
Alright, I'm a college student here and It's a a smaller city city with about 53,082 people. Crime rate is something to consider -Westchester sits at 231.7 per 100K. The unemployment rate is 2.3%, which is pretty low. Household incomes average around $75,905 in Westchester. Median household income is $75,905, which feels about average for the area. The weather takes some getting used to. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse.
Pros:
- Close to nature
- Diverse community
- Good healthcare facilities
Cons:
- Few job opportunities in some fields
- Poor road conditions
- Homelessness issues downtown
