My little tiny precinct in the northwest Houston suburbs voted 65-31 Clinton, which my guess is mainly due to the area (despite being further from downtown) being majority-minority. I suspect Biden could overperform in this precinct if youth turnout goes up, or maybe Trump could overperform if more independents here turnout for him. Otherwise there may not be much of a difference.
Oddly enough there's two precincts right next door that have more wealthy master planned communities, and those voted for Trump. Although with rapid growth in the area, this could change fast.
And as for my county (Harris County), Clinton won 54-42. Also a guaranteed Biden win this election, though I doubt he'll crack 60 since the suburbs are pretty purple while Houston itself is diamond blue.
Edit: By tiny I mean by size. The population is decent sized, but it's probably the population density that makes it kinda small. Also a lot of young people in the area due to nearby schools so that could help Biden.
