Visit Beaumont, Texas

Chosen by fortune for glory, the world first knew Beaumont through Spindletop, the oil field that proved petroleum could be found in quantities to supply the world. The technology, industry and commerce that followed the petroleum bonanza grew and diversified until today. With the oil discovery came the nation's industrial age and 600 oil companies. Today, Beaumont is the region's largest city, a cultural crossroads rich in history, art and culture. Borrowing from the Cajun “lagniappe,” meaning “a little something extra,” Beaumont is “Texas with A Little Something Extra.” The city's Bayou roots make it a combination of two colorful cultures: Texas with Cajun influences.

I lived down there for four years in the early 90's. Thank god I got out. I'll visit from time to time because I still have family down there; but as far as living down there not a chance.
