This is Texas, the second-largest state in the USA by landmass, population, and GDP.
But perhaps being runner up is not so bad in all of these categories. Texas has for many decades been a huge driving force of prosperity, not only for the people within the state but also for all of the USA.
The state provides over 40% of the oil production in the country which is, in turn, the largest oil-producing nation in the world.
To give you an idea of just how massive this operation is, Texas produces more oil than, brazil and china combined.
Now for regular channel viewers, you might be thinking that well that’s great and all however, oil wealth doesn’t always guarantee prosperity, but fortunately for Texas, it has diversified itself into a host of other industries some of which are very far removed from what you might picture taking place in the land of cowboy boots and ford f350’s.
Texas today has the fastest growing population in all of the United States which is been driven by the state attracting a range of new businesses that will work with this young new professional demographic to continue to grow a strong economy.
Or at least that is the theory, the rumblings of the world in 2020 have not been easy on the Texan miracle, and for the first time in almost three decades, the state might be starting to show signs of troubled waters.
To see if this could be a hurdle the yeehaw state could not overcome we need to look at a few key areas.
What have been the industries driving the growth of Texas?
What is it about the state that makes it so attractive to these industries?
And what could future growth look like after 2020?
Oh and of course while we are here we are going to put the state on the economics explained national leaderboard.

Texas also has a geographic advantage in being “in the middle” of the US. If your business is on the east or west coast you’ve got to travel the whole length of the country to get to the opposite side. In Texas they only have to travel half the distance, and so does their logistics (input products etc) provided their inputs are coming from somewhere else in the US.

Texas has tech booms in the past that went bust. Compaq, Dell and TI for example. It also was a big player in the telecom industry that also went bust. I think the problem vs silicon valley is that Texas had it's tech industry spread out among 3 cites, DFW, Houston and Austin versus crammed into one location. There is also a lot of misconceptions, for example I worked for a corporation that decided to relocate most of it's IT business to NC, because it was under the impression that the triangle park area was a hot bed of IT. What I tried but failed to get them to recognize for example that DFW had twice the number of IT workers and a long history of tech workers. Perceptions versus reality. Texas is a lot more than oil, always has been.

California's technology industry has a multi-decades long tradition of re-inventing itself through intense creativity. Texas industries are more about extracting money from things which already exist, be they crude oil or phone lines. I once heard Silicon Valley's secret desribed as mass scale "intellectual restlessness" .... the instinct driven by a burning need to always find a better way. This shows up in politics as well. The "progressive" mindset is "we can do better". The "conservative" mindset is "the old ways are great, don't mess with them."

After Santa Ana shot pows at Goliad and Austin tried to talk to Santa Ana before hostilities started. He was thrown in prison for two years for trying to work things out.

As someone who has worked in healthcare throughout the northeast and in three Texas cities (Houston, San Antonio, El Paso) what Texas has done with healthcare far exceeds what you see in other states that have it has a big driver of their economy. Houston’s medical center and to a lesser extent San Antonio’s attract a lot of international patients and research dollars. As well those same medical centers attract students from across the country and world to study their which also brings labs and private enterprises that wish to be close to all those students, hospitals, and patients. Texas has really turned healthcare into something that may out last just taking care of the last generation. The only other city I have seen such agglomeration of research, academics, medical tourism, wellness would be Boston However Boston is much more research focused but Texas especially Houston may come to match that in coming years.

I did so much research when I graduated college to decide where I’m going to live. Texas was undeniably the best choice. The ratio of salaries to real estate was almost ideal. My salary would be more than enough to live a good life, buy a home, travel and save. The weather is awesome except from mid May to mid September. But even then the evenings are okay. I’ve never paid state taxes. The dating world is rich and diverse. I made solid friends within a year. Nature is gorgeous everywhere. Fire ants aside, I honestly couldn’t have made a better choice. I love Texas with all my heart ❤️

I'm a marine brat, and I went to high school in California. Californians' attitude about Texas was so funny to me. I remember having a conversation with one of my classmates, and she was talking about how she wanted to move to Texas when she was an adult and graduated college. She then got very serious and made sure that I understood that Austin was the only place in the state she'd even consider moving to. I remember thinking, "Oh, well that's the last place in Texas I'd want to live." The general consensus I would get from Californians, no matter their age, was that they considered Texas and Texans to be racist with backwards politics and funny accents, even while they were all fleeing there to escape the high real estate prices of their home state. Personally, my politics don't line up with urban California, but I'm a tech nerd, and I've always loved how strong Texas's state identity is. So now I'm going to university in Texas. And Californians' attitudes about Texas are indeed reciprocated, especially considering the raising real estate prices. It's been interesting to live in one place for years and then settle down in the other. The rivalry is very real.

I brand and wrangle cattle on my ranch, and spend my days perfecting the craft and enjoying superior American passtimes. (Barbeque, Rodeo, Fireworks) I train with my branding iron every day, this superior weapon can permanently leave my ranch embled on a cattle's hide because it is white-hot, and is vastly superior to any other method of livestock marking. I earned my branding license two years ago, and I have been getting better every day. I speak English fluently, both Texas and Oklahoma dialect, and I write fluently as well. I know everything about American history and their cowboy code, which I follow 100% When I get my American visa, I am moving to Dallas to work in an oil field to learn more about their magnificent culture. I hope I can become a cattle wrangler for the Double Cross Ranch or an oil rig operator for Exxon-Mobil! I own several cowboy hats, which I wear around town. I want to get used to wearing them before I move to America, so I can fit in easier. I rebel against my elders and seniors and speak English as often as I can, but rarely does anyone manage to respond. Wish me luck in America!

Texas has 3 large metro areas. Though there is some overlap, here in Houston, the economy is still predominantly oil and gas, with medical a distant second (but closing that gap). There are tons of software and finance firms out here, but largely those are still heavily reliant on the oil sector. Dallas, on the other hand, is more of a financial hub, and Austin is rapidly growing its tech center. Some of this info may be a few years out dated, but those were the trends last time I looked. So, as a whole, I think the assertions line up, but people considering these trends should be aware of the bit of nuance of each of the major metros.

If you live in exurbia, you probably have a septic system, which requires at least one acre.

My property had been assessed at $10,000 for years, but its now assessed at many multiples of that, and next year it will be valued at who knows what? All the big Texas cities assess properties at near the maximum that the state allows. Some of these 1 acre properties may be subdivided sometime in the future when sewage systems are constructed. In 2020 its as if the property itself is a luxury.
