Another Houston/Dallas thread

Dallas has to be the most pretentious city outside of Los Angeles. Dallas is nice and all, but littered with arseholes and divas. Also, most people that live there are in a constant battle with other people to prove how much money they can spend as they max out their credit cards.
Houston, on the other hand, I feel is composed of a lot more humble population with a far more diverse economy. Just as nice but has it’s shitey areas (just like any other city). Yeah, it’s more humid... the Dallas folks seem to not be able to handle humid weather, even though most of the people on this board are originally from southern Louisiana or some other southern region of a southern state. That is their biggest counter argument from any Dallas person that I’ve talked to when arguing which city is better. Dallas traffic is also just as bad as Houston’s... no quesion. I do think Houston has far better toll road systems, though. Dallas’s tollways seem to always be clogged up with traffic, which defeats the purpose.
I will say that the Dallas burbs edge out Houston’s, but inside the loop of Houston kicks inner Dallas’s arse. Houston still has great suburbs, with The Woodlands being the king of any suburb in Texas (kiss my arse).
Also, IAH > DFW. That is all.

Laredo is nice this time of the year.

Dallas loses in the head to head simply because of the Rangers and Cowboys. But

Tha frick?
Ive lived in both places 5yrs+ and this couldnt be further from the truth.
Dallas infrastructure is way ahead of the population, one of the few things I like about Dallas more than Houston.

I don't give a shite about this "debate," but this is just factually false. Houston is dependent on oil and gas where as Dallas has a much more diverse economy. O&G, retail, American airlines, technology, among others.
Also, when did you move to Houston?

Dallas is far better than Houston. It’s not even close. Everyone bitches about humidity so stop acting like Houston folks walk outside when it’s 95 degrees with 100% humidity and comment on how comfortable it feels. Traffic is much easier to navigate in Dallas, toll roads or otherwise. Uptown, lower Greenville, west village, bishop arts etc are better than anything Houston has to offer. Houston’s economy is tied to energy. Easy way to determine this is if ever energy company shuts down what happens to Houston?

No doubt there is pretentiousness here. But it's easy to avoid if you want to.... Stay out of uptown for starts. And people aren't necessarily maxing out CCs. There are vast numbers of real ballers here. I didn't realize this until I had lived here a few years and got to know some of these 30thousand dollar millionaires.... Turns out they are really millionaires..... It's kind of shocking to realize so many wealthy, young people live here.

Why did this need another thread?
They’re both average cities. Let’s all move on.

These prove that you've been to Dallas once and are a fricking idiot.

I once heard the TX cities described as follows:
Dallas - white collar snobs
Houston - blue collar snobs
Austin - hippie snobs
I live in Houston. I like it. It's a very livable city inside the loop. I wouldn't call it a destination city or a city to visit for fun. It's a very vibrant, wealthy city with lots of opportunity for the ambitious soul.
