Rice Village is more of a shopping, business, and restaurant area. It’s in the Rice/Museum District area and borders on West U. Those are all nice areas—-West U and areas around Rice are expensive, Museum would be more affordable.

Doubt commute would be that bad going west. Also not that far.

Whether you’d want to live in those areas depends on what you’re looking for. Do you have kids? Or are you looking for more nightlife and younger people?

Also isn’t Deloittes office downtown?

Deloitte’s at Heritage Plaza so yeah
