Is Rice very... southern?

<p>I lived in Houston</p>

<p>Rice is in a really nice area</p>

<p>However, being a New Yorker, I can tell you that living in Houston did take a lot of getting used to. At least back then, 30 years ago, it was a blue collar town, not a white collar town. And there were a lot of bible belters. And a lot of non college people.</p>
