H.R. No. 434

R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The Woodlands has been named the best city to live in
America by the website Niche.com; and
WHEREAS, In compiling its 2021 list, Niche evaluated 228
cities and more than 18,500 towns and neighborhoods nationwide,
considering factors such as affordability, housing costs,
neighborhood diversity, public school quality, and walkability;
and
WHEREAS, Located just north of Houston, The Woodlands is a
master-planned community that is home to 118,000 residents and over
2,000 businesses; in addition to being designated the best city to
live in America, The Woodlands was the runner-up on the website's
rankings of the best cities to buy a house and the best cities to
raise a family, and it placed in the top 10 on Niche's lists of the
best cities to retire in and the cities with the best public schools
in America; and
WHEREAS, The Woodlands has consistently garnered acclaim for
its blend of modern living and natural beauty; the community boasts
more than 140 parks and over 220 miles of hike and bike trails,
amenities that earned it a 2019 Gold Medal Grand Plaque Award from
the American Academy for Park and Recreation Administration and the
National Recreation and Park Association; in addition, its
burgeoning job market, low crime rate, excellent educational
opportunities, vibrant suburban atmosphere, and cultural events
and entertainment are among the many amenities that have made The
Woodlands a desirable destination for families, professionals, and
retirees; and
WHEREAS, This prestigious award adds to a long and impressive
list of accolades conferred on The Woodlands, and its citizens can
indeed take pride in the well-deserved national attention that
their community has received; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas
Legislature hereby congratulate The Woodlands on being named the
best city to live in America by Niche.com and extend to its leaders
and residents sincere best wishes for the future; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for The Woodlands as an expression of high regard by the
Texas House of Representatives.
