Borders and what are actual countries and what are not are up for debate all around the world. Is Israel a country? Are North and South Ireland two different countries? Is the anarchist regions in Algeria a different country? Will Texas become its own country? The number is around 200, but it's flexible.

I think Houston is only in Texas! There is a Houston, MO. It is in south central MO, in the county of Texas.
