Many are quick to call Houston their home, especially since the city has seemingly endless hometown pride. It takes a lot to afford an apartment in HTX, especially in the Galleria area and River Oaks, which is why investing in somewhere tropical might be more worth your time. These six affordable islands are cheaper to buy than some of those highrise apartments and condos in Houston, and we guarantee they'll be worth your while.
