Description

Today, we kick off an occasional series about Houston neighborhoods – this time, we're talking about West U.
It's a small, upscale town entirely surrounded by Houston, and two proud West U. residents join the show today!
City Cast contributor Evan Mintz, along with Houston writer Chris Cander, who has some spot-on descriptions of West U. in her brand new book, A Gracious Neighbor. (You should definitely check it out – it will teach you all about "Crepe murder.")
(Also, speaking of West U., if you haven't seen the "Darth Vader House," you should definitely check this out...)
Let us know what neighborhood we should cover next! Call our voicemail at +1 713-489-6972 .
