The county where we live was almost entirely rural 25 years ago. Now it has become a huge bedroom community for nearby Houston. Farms and ranches have given way to these artificial suburbs built by developers and called subdivisions: hundreds of big houses plopped down in the middle of nowhere and given some fancy neighborhood name like "Pecan Grove". Sure there once were pecan trees there, but they cut them all down so they could build all the houses. Where do all the people come from?
