Considering relocating to Texas

^^^ I agree. Tx. labor is stupid high compared to Missouri where I lived 37 years. Wages in Missori are low compared to Tx and thus rural land there is cheaper by 10 fold. I call em "way overpaid and under worked". Check county millage rates, check and see if a county has enough property fora tax base. All that an affect your property ta in a county. Here inTx. if you have 5 ac. or more Youc an run some goats and get a farm exempt on it all but 1 ac. with your home, appraised separate. Tax on ag is nothing. Seniors get a tax discount also.
But like aid,our county is full...move on Pilgrim!! LOL:poke:
I inherited a tax exemption on agricultural land from the previous owner, and I went through the hoops and kept it. This land is exempted as agricultural for hay production. So, I don't even have to have animals here...
