Whenever I want to see how un-hip I am, I check out Envy. For purely entertainment value, you have…read moreto give this a few stars. I mean, some of the outfits that are worn I've never seen in Houston, and yet they walk among us. They always "write" (by "write" I mean put in a bunch of pictures of rich people at happening places) about the places to be seen and heard. I always say that I'll keep up with the cool things, but somehow manage to forget until I see the new edition and realize that, once again, I've missed the mark on being cool and trendy in Houston. *sigh*

It's a pretty thick magazine, but it's almost all party photos...it's a good way either to see what you're missing out on, or to plan your next outing. There are restaurant reviews and some "articles" about new Houston venues from time to time, but it really is mostly photos and ads. The photographers are everywhere once you get to know them.

I'm not really into houses and home decor and gardens and whatever, but if you are then this is a nice local magazine for you.

Yet another free Houston magazine! This one, published by the Houston In-Town Chamber of Commerce,…read morehas an inner-loop focus, plus they host lots of networking events at area bars (even breakfast events - not at bars). The articles tend to be about local events and personalities, and the party photos are kept to a minimum (two big pluses). I actually find this magazine somewhat useful in determining good contacts/events for the central area of Houston. Another plus - no nasty cosmetic surgery ads!

I am not a fan of this magazine, primarily because it does not appeal to me, but they insist on…read moresending it to me anyway and will not stop despite my requests. They used to be delivered via white fans, which would enter private subdivisions with signs prohibiting soliciting, handbills, etc., and then simply throw their magazines onto our lawns. This was highly agitating, and I'm glad they have stopped doing that. However, their solution now is to use carrier route saturation to have USPS simply put them in everyone's mailboxes. Again, it's better than my lawn, but still poses the problem that I don't want it, and am being told I don't have a choice. No, it's not too much trouble to throw away, but simply another thing I have to pick up and deal with. And it does take up space in my rather small mailbox and sometimes causes other mail pieces to fling out when I open the door. That said, its leadership team is friendly enough in response to my requests, but simply unwilling to help.

I've got to say this magazine is one that usually catches my eye the most over the other FREE…read morehouston publications. The photography in here is higher quality than their competitors. Yes people complain about their ads, but their ads are of restaurants that I actually enjoy. Their articles are usually the most ground breaking as far as trendy things to do. The fashion section is a good read in my opinion too.

How can you not give the Houston Press five stars? Want your money back? It's FREE!! These guys are…read morereally doing Houston residents a service. Not only do they have a list of the coolest events going on around town, they do some hard-hitting, in-depth reporting on some issues that the major newspaper might not want to get into. These days, the press is generally cutting back on everything, but nothing beats a reporter on the beat, asking difficult questions at City Hall. Since this is a weekly publication, the Press has the opportunity to go more in-depth in some issues that a daily newspaper mightn't want to take on. It's all free! The paper is heavily driven by advertisements, but they tend to be colorful and interesting to read. I wish they had more regular features that seem to have been cut out, like the News of the Weird, or a few more cartoons. I miss Life in Hell! Houston doesn't have a lot of options when it comes to free local news to read, and this is a valuable resource. I suggest you pick one up where ever fine free publications are served. If you're not into the news copy in this free publication, it is always good as a fly swatter or material for papier mache.

Free is always a good thing in my book…read more Whenever I'm bored I pick up a copy and check out what's happening in Houston. From time to time there are some really interesting articles from some cool POVs. My biggest complaint about this thing is the endless adult ads. Yes I understand that a free publication has to pay for itself somehow, but really how many super spas and strip clubs are there?!
