- Q5535157 abstract "According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 601.7 square miles (1,558 km2) — 579.4 square miles (1,501 km2) of it is land and 22.3 square miles (58 km2) of it is water. The total area is 3.7 percent water.Houston is located in the gulf coastal plains biome, and its vegetation is classified as temperate grassland. Much of the city was built on marshes, swamp, or prairie—all of which can still be seen in surrounding areas.Much of Houston is very flat, making flooding a recurring problem for its residents. The city stands about 50 feet above sea level—the highest area within city limits being 90 feet. However, coastal subsidence has caused the elevation to drop 10 feet or more in certain areas. The subsidence was caused by extensive use of ground water and the extraction of oil and natural gas. The city turned to ground-level water sources such as Lake Houston which was created in 1953 and Lake Conroe of which Houston owns two-thirds interest.Houston has four major bayous passing through the city: Buffalo Bayou, which runs into downtown and the Houston Ship Channel; and three of its tributaries: Brays Bayou, which runs along the Texas Medical Center; White Oak Bayou, which runs through the Heights and near the northwest area; and Sims Bayou, which runs through the south of Houston and downtown Houston. The ship channel goes past Galveston and into the Gulf of Mexico.Houston is located 165 miles (266 km) east of Austin, 112 miles (180 km) west of the Louisiana border and 250 miles (400 km) south of Dallas.".
