Is Highland Village a city?
UH Med School: It will be the MacGregor site, not TMC. An RFP has already gone out. If the med school really wants to focus on primary care and community medicine, locating at TMC would send the wrong message.

Highland Village is actually on the list: https://www.safewise.com/blog/safest-cities-texas/?fbclid=IwAR2DWpQ4h-h7Y522P-FuSKjWgScudY4bKXuIFbk-Y_BLan8Q2mMocHsqVf0
“Highland Village is actually on the list”
Highland Village, the town, is a suburb of Dallas. The Chronicle story, about Houston suburbs, mentions the Memorial Villages.
Highland Village is between Lewisville and Denton, north of Dallas. It is also one of many confusingly named neighborhoods in Houston that is also a town/city in other parts of Texas. See also, Spring Branch. Neighborhood in West Houston and small town in Comal County, Central Texas. River Oaks. Fancy neighborhood in Houston. City in Tarrant County NW of Fort Worth.
Highland Village may be on the list, but its a suburb of Dallas. Memorial Village, however, is both on the list and in Houston.
The Highland Village referred to in the Safewise rankings is in Denton County, not the neighborhood in Houston
