Making a difference in Houston

Greater Houston area

Houston Houston ranks among the leading metropolitan areas in the U.S. and is the fourth largest city and the fifth largest Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) in the nation. Metro Houston area, which consists of 10 counties, grew by more than 125,000 people between July 2015 and July 2016, making it the second-fastest growing metropolitan region in the country last year. Despite the fall in oil prices, Metro Houston’s population gain remains solid. New estimates will be available this spring.

Houston is internationally recognized as the global energy capital, with virtually every segment of the energy industry represented by over 5,000 firms in the region.

Houston is also home to The Texas Medical Center (TMC) - the world's largest medical center with over 92,500 employees including physicians, scientists, researchers and other advanced degree professionals in the life sciences. In addition, Houston has the seventh largest U.S. container port, The Port of Houston, a leader in foreign tonnage and imports.

Our strategic location represents a winning combination for business growth and increased industrial development in the area. Besides Houston's diverse growth industries and educated/skilled workforce, Houston's business appeal is the fact that it is one of the least expensive major U.S. cities in which to conduct business. Significant benefits include the absence of state or city income taxes, no state property tax, as well as an exceptionally low cost of living index.

The city with no limits

All cities have their limits – geographic boundaries that define the area. Few cities have the ability to expand beyond those boundaries and offer their residents something much greater than just amenities. Houston is one such city. You can call us Space City or Bayou City, but what you can’t call us is a city that limits imagination.

Of all the U.S. cities, you are free to make your dreams a reality in Houston. There are no limits to what you can achieve if you are willing to work for it. It is this boundless spirit that we celebrate in our campaign, Houston: The City With No Limits.

Infinite possibilities

From the moment Houston was founded, the limits of what’s possible here were forever defined. The first domed stadium, the first word heard from the moon, the first artificial heart transplant – all were achieved from that spirit of endless possibilities. Today, that spirit is alive and well, and there’s no limit to what Houston has to offer for those who want the American dream and are willing to work hard for it.

Living in Houston

Compare Houston to other possibilities

Houston offers limitless choices for neighborhoods, entertainment, dining, culture, sports, education, business and more. The selection is as diverse as the culture itself. Houston is the most ethnically diverse major metro in the nation, with more than 100 languages spoken here.

Here, you can rise as far as your creativity and work ethic will take you. No wonder Houston is the fourth most populous city in the U.S. and keeps growing in every way possible.

LIMITLESS LIVING IN HOUSTON ➝

Culture and entertainment

Experiencing Houston

You could eat at a different restaurant every day in Houston for 23 1/2 years and not visit the same restaurant twice! And you could enjoy three Houston museums or performing arts companies per week without repeating. Major league professional sports teams, resident companies in all of the performing arts, and 600 bars give you limitless choices for fun.
