Since you have a child, and HISD is ranked highly among public school systems in Texas, i would suggest Houston. Every place has its good and bad qualities. But since you have tools like Yahoo! answers, we can help you find a nice place to live that takes Section 8 and is close to home. Try the Historic Allen Park homes.

It depends on how old your child is and what kind of work you do. The pay varies in Atlanta. I get paid very well here, but I have a college degree. If you have a degree, this is a GREAT place to be. There are good neighborhoods and bad neighborhoods in Atlanta - just like in any other city. You just have to do your research and make a choice based on what you want and need for your child.

Houston. More diversity here. I often refer to it as the "New York City of the South." Atlanta is almost a second home although I grew up in Texas(Dallas/Houston). You have to account for the gay population in Atlanta, and frankly, if you're not in the entertainment industry you have no business in the A.
Houston is more family friendly, has better suburbs, and Sec.8 won't be a problem here. Hope this helps. Oh, and the job market is more professional in Atlanta, but more diverse here.

I would pick Houston but it would depend on how old you child is. But Houston is a great place to raise a child!

Hotlanta is probably more fun.
