Answers:


I have inspected a few homes in the area, and I have been a guest in a few others. The neighborhoods are nice, and you will be in easy access to many businesses. I have been told that the school district is CY-Fair (but I am not sure of that). A friend of mine thinks well of the schools her daughter has attended there. As for the commute, it may not be enjoyable at this time. Your husband can either go down to the I-10 into downtown or up to the 290 to the 610 then down the 45. Currently the interchange between I10 and the Beltway 8 is under construction yet again, and 290 is frequently congested. Depending upon where in the downtown area he is going, he can expect a long commute. During non-rush hour periods, the drive is only around twenty minutes. During rush hour, I would say at least 45 minutes when everything is going well. The plans for commuter rail which may be in place by 2010 will greatly cut down these commutes.
