Gulfton is described to be the home to residents from Latin America, Africa, West Asia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia, with over 50 languages spoken.Recognize the inherent value and rights of all Houstonians.“Mayor Whitmire’s comments are an affront to all Houstonians who believe in an inclusive and equitable city,” said Daniel Cohen, Chair of Indivisible Houston. “We need leadership that embraces all communities, not one that demeans and marginalizes them.
“We are listening to residents and will make a positive difference in Gulfton. Metro has a plan for the area. It is in the process of designing a data-driven strategy to improve mobility, giving people better access to reach services at Baker Ripley and Legacy Clinic.”
