| How Far Is Rome From Houston Texas |
A World Away
Let’s get straight to the point: Houston and Rome are approximately 5,700 miles apart. That's like driving from New York to Los Angeles... and then back again... and then to Alaska... just for fun. Yeah, it's a bit of a trek.
But don’t let the distance fool you. These two cities couldn’t be more different. Houston, a bustling metropolis known for its space program and Tex-Mex cuisine. Rome, the eternal city, steeped in history and culture, with pizza that could make a grown man weep.
