    The real answer:

    1) Low cost housing
    2) Pro-business regulatory framework

    The result of this is a strong economy and a strong middle class.

    (a third reason is we have TV Johnny Dang making grills)

    Trump lost Harris county 53-41. Given our strong dependence on oil and massive layoffs I wouldn't say our economy is on good ground. In general people in houston aren't that political given our voter turnout.

    "We" = Houstonians

    We are outnumbered here, either current residents or former residents

    but we are the Houston part of the Houston Rockets
