Grant’s direct answer
Frequent travel should make a Bain Houston consultant think beyond the office commute. Grant still favors the central Inner Loop neighborhoods because they give the employee a better place to come home to after travel. IAH access becomes more important, but Grant would not automatically move north just to shorten airport trips. He would balance airport convenience with social life, apartment quality, and the amount of time actually spent in the Downtown office.
