Thank you for all of these videos! I'm Canadian but engaged to a Texan and your channel has helped answer a lot of questions for me. Little bit closer to the Lubbock family!

Awesome Katie! Thank you so much for watching :) happy to help !

Hey Andrew, great information to know! As an overtaxed, unhappy guy from expensive cost of living California, I hope to move & relocate to Texas next year. And being a GOP-Conservative I would look forward to the friendliness culture of Texas with its mostly conservative views in politics.

[@LubbockLiving]

Awesome! We’d be happy to have you :)

So what are you going to do if Texas ever gets a Democrat governor?

[@veenom1979]

Just keep your liberal shit to yourself

[@JK-tz6kk]

Was stationed at Reese AFB in the early '80s and eventually settled in the Central Valley of CA after my USAF career. Living in an Ag town here for the last 30 years, we are looking at Texas to retire on a couple of acres. Btw, a "ranchette" acre around us goes for $275K just for the land. Been to DFW and Houston last fall and going back to Houston, Austin and SA in May, just to look around some more. Thanks for the "NEED to know" segment.

[@LubbockLiving]

Where's the best place to move in Texas for jobs?

[@americusdeville865]

Texas is the Bestest.

[@LubbockLiving]

you already know :)

[@brockreynolds870]

It's only more favorable to not be taxed on your income if you make over 100,000$ a year. But ALSO keep in mind, that Texas gets a lot of it's taxes from sales tax. Compared to Missouri, where I live... we may have a state income tax, but that means you only pay more if you EARN more... and that works far better for rural people, who tend to have lower incomes and own lots of land. Texas has a sales tax that is 2% higher than Missouri, and that impacts everyone, even the poorest citizens. Texas ALSO pulls in 50 million dollars a year just from hunting licenses. In Texas, you are required to have a hunting license to hunt on your OWN LAND, and that does not occur in any of the surrounding states. so, I suppose you have more freedom compared to California, but to us Missourians, we don't look at it as being so free. And that freedom is not tethered to a political party, as we've had a Democrat governor for 12 out of the last 20 years.

Even Lubbock is getting crowded. No part of Texas is not crowded except for truly rural areas.

How different is it compared to Minnesota? Only time I've been in Texas was for a few hours for a connecting flight

Great question- for one thing, I'm sure it's not as cold!!

Is an 80k down payment for a Fort Worth texas home around the 350-400k range any good? I'm trying to get out of Los Angeles, and I won't bring the negative baggage of this city with me.

[@LubbockLiving]

Yup- it absolutley is. Give us a ring at (806)-464-9380 and we'd love to discuss!

Not necessarily, 3,5% lowest down payment

[@Blackinterceptor999]

I'm about to be gentrified out of my house in the next 2 or so years Soo, I'm looking to move to Texas and would like a small town like mine (we also ride horses to school here in Oregon) The politics is also more inline with 98% of my Conservative Libertarian views and it's closer to where my ancestry came from...However.. My family is of the low income verity so I'm lookin for an affordable town possibly east Texas so I've heard? And I'm renting now, been renting here for around 17 years with my wife and kid whose freshman now...The freedom is a huge factor in the choice as well as the weather...I hate the cold and love heat. We love animals, I got three cats, two are rescues, we're involved in the local non profits helpin the folks in our community with whatever they need...I don't want to move But I don't have much choice sadly the Californians have priced us out of our own community. Nothin affordable if for rent and homes cost over half a mil around here.

[@lt.skippy9028]

Keep moving through try Oklahoma.

[@zuli.realty]

Waco is nice town between Dallas and Austin

[@jumpAmonkey]

"Looking for cheap, low income housing in a conservative, libertarian small Texas town". Now THAT is funny. Wherever you choose, I suggest you rent a hotel room for 2 weeks and dig in to 'feel' it. I suspect you will decide to continue onward.

the first rule of moving to Texas from anywhere, if you think, act and vote like a Democrat, we don't want you here. Keep that forefront in your mind and goes someplace else if it fits. if it fits, then "bless your heart"

What about urban communities and racism here

[@jumpAmonkey]

Ignore this video of fluff. This is just a commercial for their service and presents vague info at best. If you're moving to Texas you need to take your time, do the research and figure out WHERE makes sense for you based on your career, desires, education, social preferences and many other factors. Duh! If you're from California, think about how different a dozen locations are there and apply that to Texas. Once you find the right city region, then you have to find the right Zip code. Your experience will vary wildly depending on the people you move next to. These guys seem to have no clue about important factors like this. I'm a native of DFW but have lived on 3 continents and traveled 70 countries extensively. A successful relo is more than just packing up and saying "let's go there!".

what part of Texas is it that you have to pay tolls and also have to drive 8 miles to find something to eat?

Probably the city, most likely in Houston. Idiot went to the biggest city in the US area wise and didnt expect tolls lmao. Adios Californian 👋🏽, won’t miss you. There’s at least 7 million people in that area that go through Houston weekly
