Crime in Houston, TX, United States

Well, you know that white people here do not only hate non-whites, but they also dislike anybody from California, New York, Maryland, Illinois, Hawaii, and so on. And forget about people from Canada, Australia, or Europe, they hate these people too. And they also hate you if you are LGBT. They never made it a secret; they always yell "stay out of our state!" It's worse when you go to places like Spring, Magnolia, or League City. Yet people here act as if it's not a problem. People actually have the nerve to believe that this place is less racist than NYC. When white people here every day blow dog-whistles about looters (black people), from the ordinary citizen to the sheriff. And it's also unbelievable how black and Latino people are subservient to that attitude instead of aggressively fighting against it! Some of them even act as redneck and right-wing as the white people here.

Your mileage may vary, but you know you're not that desirable when many hardcore racists from other states have praise for your city and state. I mean, alt-right folks are not grossed about Houston or Texas in general. Just remember that, Houstonians!

Coming here, I did not realise how hateful white people really are.

I mean, yeah, Houston is diverse, but go to the outskirts and you'll see so many gun-toting rednecks who absolutely hate minorities.

Crime is bad in Chinatown between May and June 2016

I agree with all these comments,I am a Singaporean and my parents are Eastern European(Russian to be precise) and I live here in Houston as an expat.I feel unwanted here which is why I switched from public school to private school since private schools usually are more culturally diverse,I've experienced lots of racism,The Woodlands is quite culturally diverse so if you are a foreigner like me move there,it was a mistake to pick another place rather than the woodlands to live in,the downtown is full of racist people and Spring is quite a racist place too.I just wanna move out I won't lie.

Don't be fooled by Houston's diversity. A majority of white people in the area adore Donald Trump and have strong racial resentment towards people of another ethnicity. From experience, I haven't gotten any racial threats from other minorities, but it seems like white people are uncomfortable with me despite being a so-called "model minority." No, seriously, there are lots of racist white people especially in areas like Memorial, Katy, Cypress, The Woodlands, Kingwood, Spring, Galveston, League City, Deer Park, Pasadena, etc. You really don't want to know what these people say about minorities behind closed doors, because it will shatter your world. Minorities do have opportunities, but they will rarely ever be welcomed by the white majority/ruling class. Whites still cling to the view that blacks and Hispanics are lazy and on welfare, and that they are sick and tired of paying taxes for them while having a disdain for the history/reason on why they are that way; as a result, many politicians ride on the dogwhistle when getting elected. And you seriously do not want to go to Alvin/Santa Fe, Liberty County, or Waller County. Be warned.
