I was there lived there during most of the 80s and never saw an excuse for why 4 white Meter maids became a huge number of 17 black women and why that resulted in less work being done.

I was there until mid-1985, so I knew what it was like in the first half of the decade.

I kept up with the city news in the next five years because my old neighborhood (energy corridor south of Westheimer) was decimated by worker flight. Much of the housing was taken over by the government (foreclosures) and used for low-income housing.

The area now is crime-ridden, but back then it was just beginning to make the change as corporate workers relocated to other states.
