Ha! Don't I wish! The nearest bus site with regular running buses is a 45 minute drive in the opposite direction (from Houston), and it is a traffic-jammed route.
There is a county bus that goes into Houston, but I can't use that one. It only comes around 7:30 AM and returns around 5:30 - 6 PM. Good if you're working in Houston, I suppose, but not so good if you don't need to hang around downtown all day. It doesn't even have proper waiting stops, just a couple signs here & there. If you didn't know where the signs were or haven't lived here a long time, you wouldn't even know about it. There is no seating, sometimes not even a sidewalk, where people stand and wait. Not too many people do use it, but occasionally I see a person waiting at the stop. That was how I found out about them. I would think, "How weird, that person is just standing at the side of the road in the middle of grass." After awhile I noticed the signs about those couple of places being stops for the county bus route.
