Oil has made Houston TX the biggest city in the state and one of the largest in the country. Houston TX started out as a port city on what was then known as the Buffalo Bayou, but the discovery of oil in 1901 transformed the city’s destiny and today Houston TX is the undisputed oil capital of America. The port is still going strong and is ranked #1 in the nation for total waterborne tonnage. Houston TX isn’t all business however. There are also many cultural attractions including a Museum District that draws over 7 million visitors every year. On the health and human services side, Houston TX is home to Texas Medical Center, one of the largest groups of healthcare and research institutions in the world.
