The City of Bellaire in Houston, Texas has so much to offer! Its centrally located and near many major highways and points of interest. It's a great place for families. It has many local shops, restaurants and amazing parks and schools. Bellaire even has its own police and fire department! I would highly recommend there. I have found several people homes there and they have all been very happy!
