I have been in north Texas my whole life… Don’t come here. House prices and property taxes are both outrageous.
Oklahoma, Arkansas, north & South Carolina, Alabama would be where I would be looking… I Have friends or family in all those states and talking to them about crime and cost of living They all sound better than here
My wife is from Texas, and my oldest was born there. We both have family there. I can’t live in Texas, too damn hot and humid. I love to visit though, and some of the best food(not just BBQ) in the world.
She is from the Suburbs of Austin, it’s called Round Rock. It’s California prices now, and the crime has skyrocketed. 2 people very close to me have been attacked by homeless people within the past year. Remember this is not in Austin! Round Rock is in Williamson County, notoriously conservative.
