Definition

For coverage purposes, metro Houston is Houston, TX together with every incorporated community within 86 miles that is closer to Houston than to any other metro anchor — 14 communities and about 1,080,455 people beyond the core city. Communities are assigned to their nearest anchor, so the boundaries follow travel distance rather than county lines.

Geography

The anchor sits at 29.7604°, -95.3698°. Coverage extends in 6 compass directions from it, reaching 86 miles at its furthest. The largest surrounding community is Pasadena, TX — 152,735 people, 10.8 miles southeast.

Climate

Between October and April the Houston area averages an overnight low of 56.5°F and reaches 16.3°F at its coldest, with 39 days below 45°F — about 1.3 months. A cat’s thermoneutral zone starts around 86°F against a typical indoor 64–72°F, so those are the months an indoor cat here is actively hunting for a heat source.
