Where do Unit 174 members live?

I often wondered where most of the members of our unit live - to find out I created a map with a blue dot marking the home of each of our members. See below:

Mapping by Topo.ly

The shaded counties are those in our unit. It's apparent that the vast majority of our members live in west Houston, with clusters in Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Kingwood, Clear Lake, and College Station.
