      I like living in Clute. It's close to Lake Jackson, which is where all the shopping is. I currently rent, which is more affordable in Clute than surrounding cities.

      Clute is an all-around nice town. There really is not any trouble or violence down here. It is easy to go anywhere where you want in little time, especially since there is not any traffic to worry about. The schools, ranging from elementary to high school, are great.
      Close to the beach, & various family oriented activities. About one hour from Houston, TX and Galveston, Texas.
