My Life In Bellaire, Texas 4 rating By Anonymous ( May 10, 2018) Living in Bellaire is really great. The fact to keep in mind is that we live in Bellaire, although Houston is only a few minutes away. Some days it is nice to be able to spend time in the city, and with so much to do. Sometimes I feel like I could do everything within the city an ...Read More d it would still be more to do.

The transportation system is amazing and although sometimes due to traffic we get backed up, we are usually on schedule. The stops are spread out fairly even, so you do not have to do much walking in terms off approaching your stops. One thing I do enjoy is the restaurants like Little Woodrow's on Bellaire Blvd.

Sometimes I think about checking out other places to live, but only due to the fact that living expenses are so high around here. I try to keep in mind it is due to being a suburb of Houston, but with that being said, there are some beautiful homes throughout Bellaire. You can live here and play in Houston! Read Less
