Property taxes are insane in Texas.

[@VIPRealty]

Yes they are!

[@thewordologistchannel4574]

I can deal with the property tax. It's the aggressive drivers out there that concern me😅😅😅😅

[@VIPRealty]

@@thewordologistchannel4574 Add me to your list of aggressive drivers. ( only if you're driving slow in the passing lane )

[@TheOtherJennyLee]

yes, but have you seen the property taxes AND state income taxes in New Jersey? If you don't live in NJ, you are winning in life.

[@brucegoolsby1470]

I agree with you about the California geography being beautiful, but that comes at a huge cost. However, I also agree with you about the friendliness and warmth of the people in Texas. It all depends on what people are looking for.

[@VIPRealty]

Well said!

[@colleenmonfross4283]

You speak the truth! I lived in Dallas for many years, finally decided I needed some natural beauty and better weather and came back home to California. I always said that the best thing about Dallas was great shopping, great food, and two great airports to get you the hell out of there! If you have to pick your poison, I picked natural beauty and bad government/politics over ugly landscape and terrible weather but good politics. Hard choices in life sometimes.

[@VIPRealty]

Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got talking about investment and money. I started investing with $120k and in the first 2 months , my portfolio was reading $274,800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and gets more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family...

[@AlilatTiamiyu]

I’ve been forced to find additional sources of income as I got retrenched. I barely have time to continue trading and watch my investments since I had my second daughter. Do you think I should take a break for a while from the market and focus on other things or return whenever I have free time or is it a continuous process? Thanks...

[@HondaXr650L]

​@thewordologistchannel4574 how did you like Dallas compared to DC?

[@rebeccagrey606]

I was born and raised in Southern California. I disagree with you. While I do miss the beach & mountains. The traffic SUCKED!!! it took me 2 hours each way to get to work when my job was just 30 miles away in CA. Also my rent for a 4 bedroom pool home in CA was $5000/mo vs $2800/mo in Dallas for a much larger gorgeous home! My job was better too and included a lot of travel all over the world. The schools are better in Texas also. I think it depends on your job and where you live. I live in a suburb of Dallas near a gorgeous lakefront home. I wouldn't want to go back to CA if you paid me!

[@VIPRealty]

There’s no question California is much more expensive. However I’m referring to the landscape and weather. There’s no comparison

[@krstnegus8520]

My property taxes went up $500 in 2 years.... im definitely considering moving with the job market going downhill, and the traffic is getting laughable...

[@VIPRealty]

Traffic is definitely out of control

[@brianjenkins8146]

you guys have been spoiled in Texas. Traffic sucks iin most metro areas in the U.S. I live in the Washington DC area. Traffic has always sucked. To me, it's about economics. where do I get the most bang for my buck and a better overall quality of life.

[@krstnegus8520]

@brianjenkins8146 Indeed, you are correct, sir.. we were spoiled lol but the day of reckoning has come.. things have changed quickly and alot!

So, Dallas sucks because it's flat, hot, and big? And San Diego is dream land? You're overlooking one thing: San Diego is in California, which is now a horrible state to live in. People are leaving CA in droves. And living in the mountains isn't all that great. Anyway, I didn't find your reasons to be compelling at all. I love Dallas and Texas.

Dallas is a clean city I’ll give it that, im more of a houston guy. However being a Los Angeles native I plan on relocating from dallas back to California. Though California is more expensive to live the pay for my profession pay much more in California. I felt I moved to the DFW during the wrong time last year when inflation and the cost living was rising and I took a big pay cut. Maybe if I had came a little earlier I would have been fine.

[@tiz444]

Stay away from the Devil’s Triangle. I’m talking about the interstates connecting Dallas, Houston and San Antonio, with Austin throw in there. The commerce traffic just gets worse by the minute, and creates all kinds of traffic jams. Virtually 24/7. Three major Interstate highways meet in downtown Dallas. I-35, I-30, and I-45. And I-20 is just a few miles south of downtown. All of the traffic and congestion is making Dallas into a 3rd world big city. Virtually no nature to enjoy because everything is being covered by concrete and buildings. The highway system was never built to handle the traffic that exists today in Dallas. And I would bet it’s not much better in the other cities in the Devil’s Triangle. 😱😫

If you've ever been to the Anatole hotel, you'll get what Dallas is all about. Despite being next to a major freeway and right by downtown, there is absolutely nothing to do for the guests there.
