Safe and pretty!
I moved to Sugar Land, TX from the Bay Area, California. After living in 4 states over the last 10 years I am super satisfied! Family life is amazing with lots of lakes, cycling, outdoor running, and amazing city center. Schools are great and several hospitals around. Diversity is off the charts and living in harmony together. tons of restaurants and shopping within 10 minute drive. I am very impressed with this city thus far and my wife and kids are in love with it. We live in new territory subdivision.
There are a variety of diverse restaurants, the Fort Bend County police department are very accessible. Many popular stores, restaurants, and gyms pop up over the last year. Things are not too far from each other you can easily find whatever you are looking for at just a 10 minute drive. Peak time traffic flows there is rarely stopped traffic, and drives are very responsible. The atmosphere is safe and welcoming, with not a lot of criminal activity occurring

Sugar Land is one of the best places! The people are friendly and the schools are great. The teachers are amazing and a lot of them do their job. There is a slight possibility that you might find one or two teachers that dont want to teach or that dont know how to teach the subject but other than that there are really good teachers. This applies to a lot of elementrary, middle and highschools. There is also a lot of after school sports and activitys. Also there are a lot of parks, resturants and other activities that yo can do in this area. There is a lot of diversity in this area and safety isnt an issue because this area has a lot of police patrolling the area. The housing is affordable and reasonable. You probably wont be able to find a lot of new houses but you can find a lot of used homes for sale. When it comes to jobs though you are kinda limited on what jobs you can find. There really isnt many job listings in Sugar Land and when you do find a listing its for a low end job.
Such an improvement over Bryan/College Station area. College Station was like a literal forest. Sugar Land is the best place you can live/retire in Texas. There is so much diversity. The schools (Fort Bend ISD) are top tier. The location is one of the best, with it being only 20 miles from Houston. It is also close to one of the top schools in the nation, Rice University. The houses here are great, you can get a good looking, 3 bed 2 bath for 250k. I met all of my friends here, and I hope to continue my friendship here in Sugar Land. I am currently a middle school student and looking to graduate from Clements High School!
