So-called Norhill ...
I grew up in this area / so-called neighborhood, within the Heights. That is correct ... WITHIN the Heights. It was NEVER in my lifetime called "Norhill" by the 1960's (and I was born on Norhill St) In fact, although I attended Eugene Field, and played many days at Hogg Jr High and Protor Plaza park, in my entire life I never heard of this area referred to as "Norhill", except for Norhill Little League, perhaps. By the 60's for certain, everyone called and considered this area a part of "The Heights". It wasn't until after 1990 or so that realtors and marketing people resurrected the name "Norhill". This is all common knowledge to those who lived and grew up in this part of Houston. Reagan High School was recently renamed Heights High School, btw. If this article is to be believe, it would also be part of "Norhill". 98.194.39.86 (talk) 18:18, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks for commenting! One thing to note is that the Houston Heights proper has defined boundaries seen here from the Harris County block book system. Heights High School (ex-Reagan) occupies at least two blocks in Heights proper: Block 166 and Block 167 with the overall position seen here. The eastern boundary of the Heights proper is between Oxford Street and Beverly Street (Studewood Street is east of that line, so stuff on Studewood is not in the Heights proper). The Norhill area was developed separately: I am posting block book maps from that above.
 * There is a school in Norhill: James S. Hogg Middle School (block marked here) at 1100 Merrill Street, Houston, TX 77009
 * Anyway, as a notice: the verifiability policy (V) states: " Its content is determined by previously published information rather than the beliefs or experiences of editors." Based on this, in order for me to write in the Wikipedia article that the area is popularly seen as being in the Heights (meaning in the minds of its area residents) such comments would need to be in a published newspaper article, journal article, magazine article, etc.

 * I grew up in the Heights. My best friend and my grandmother both lived on Norhill, as did I.  Street.  It was never a neighborhood, and no one ever called it that.  It was just the Heights.  I'll provide citations to back up these "claims".  It's not going to be difficult seeing that I was born and raised on 14th and Norhill St myself.  73.6.96.168 (talk) 11:57, 11 October 2019 (UTC)
 * I'm happy to read any published sources you find which explicitly say "People in Norhill mainly say they're from the Heights". Remember self-published sources like vanity press books, internet forums, etc. do not count. WhisperToMe (talk) 18:01, 1 June 2020 (UTC)
