PUBLICATION SUMMARY
Lifestyles & HomesReuters described Houston as “one of
the brighter spots in the U.S. economy,
is growing so fast that business leaders
fear running out of skilled labor as bil-
lions are spent building new energy in-
frastructure on the Gulf Coast.”
According to The Atlantic Magazine,
“Houston is unstoppable: Texas is
killing it. It dominated the recession,
crushed the recovery, and in a new
analysis of jobs recovered since the
downturn, its largest city stands apart
as the most powerful job engine in the
country–by far.”
All five zoned Lifestyles & Homes
publications are direct-mailed monthly
(over 200,000) to preferred demograph-
ics in Houston and its fastest growing
suburbs: The Woodlands, Katy-Fuls-
hear, Fort Bend County (Sugar Land,
Missouri City, Richmond) and Cy-Fair.
These highly sought-after areas are de-
fined by master planned communities,
country clubs, and exceptional school
districts. Readers are mostly college ed-
ucated, middle to upper class, with
school-aged children. Residents enjoy
diverse shopping and dining and a
booming business environment. Hous-
ton Lifestyles & Homes is mailed to
Houston’s preferred metropolitan zip-
codes. Houstonians enjoy diverse shop-
ping and dining and a strong business
environment. Readers spend heavily on
home improvement, furniture, fashion,
education, health, beauty, fitness, dining
and entertainment, new cars and travel.
