About Huston:

Houston provides the opportunities and conveniences found in large cities,
but is more affordable than many small cities.  Bargain housing prices and a
low tax burden keep living expenses in Houston below those in most other
major metropolitan areas.  

In the context of the 27 metropolitan areas with more than 2 million
residents, Houston's
cost-of-living advantage is even more pronounced. Houston's housing costs
are 42 percent
below the average for the large metro areas, and its overall costs are 20
percent below the
average for this group.

Huston is home to a respected and energetic cultural arts scene, the fourth
largest shopping center in the country, the oldest African-American theater
in the Southwest and the brains behind United States space exploration,
Houston is as diverse a city as they come. 

Those who wish to be considered for this exciting position will please
submit their resume to this email address.

 

Warm regards,

Laura
