That’s amazing! To experience life in such beautiful cities worldwide! The Texas Hill Country does have a unique charm indeed. Where to do live now?

That’s awesome! Welcome to Texas! I’m glad we could help! Which team member helped you out?

Please leave

@@LIVINGINDALLASplease go back to Chicago

Great way to sum it up! Thank you for sharing..

Yes its true! houses in ny are like shoes shoes boxes for 500k. texas will get you castle !

@@farhank8336 That is so true and just a few years ago, for 300 - 350K you could find mini mansions 4000+ sq houses and a nice large lot.

Thanks! You’re the first to notice! You stuck around through the end!

Agreed! So many great options amongst all those cities! Of course we say Dallas is the best!

@@LIVINGINDALLAS Dallas is truly the best! Nicer infrastructure, very nice suburbs, lots of corporations. Just like places like Dubai are growing, Dallas is growing also, maybe at a slower and different pace. Dubai is more into tourism; Dallas is into businesses.

I'm super duper excited about relocating to DFW in 2024 I've been seeing alot of Texas License plates everywhere I go, I intuitively feel like the most high is guiding me In that direction 🙏🙏♥️♥️♥️

Only a local person who's never been around the world, or someone who truly prefers to have little to no horizon in his daily life, would think living in a land as endlessly big and endless flat as Texas (on average, compared to California or other states with great varying topography and geology)... is living in the best state! I grew up in California --- but I've driven through & visited close to 45 states & have lived in North Carolina (by the majestic Appalachian foothill, by the Tennessee area) and in Minnesota, for years ---- and while driving through most of Central California, the vast San Joaquin that produces 25% to 30% of the foods consumed in America... could be monotonous tedious.... I've also ridden and driven through Texas a few times... and Texas is so vast, with nothing but endless flat or gently rolling topography, I would never say it's the best state to live in.... again, unless you're born there and have never visited any other place across the US or in the world... For example --- in terms of topography ---- in California, even in San Diego, bordering Tijuana, Mexico, you could drive from 365-day sunny year-round Downtown to the local mountains (Julian to Polamar, the giant astronomical observatory), just 35-45 minutes north, and you see snow, from late December to early March or so. A stone throw beyond that, you're in the hot deserts of Borrego and Palm springs, as hot and humid as most of Texas... A bit north of northern San Diego, you have the infamous DEATH VALLEY ecosystem; a few miles west of deadly hot & in hospital Death Valley, you have alpine topography and vegetation, from the Sequoia areas, where the biggest trees on earth are, to Yosemite, where some of the most majestic mountains and valleys and snow caps were, to the millionaire playgrounds of Tahoe and Mt. Shasta highlands, in northerly to northern California... And, then, if you swerve westerly toward the mighty Pacific, you have endless ocean fronts and unsurpassed scenic coastal roadways ---- which runs from San Diego to Seattle & Vancouver, Canada... Again, people SHOULD love where they live (or they should move to other places)... but if you're just talking about MAJESTIC LANDSCAPES... of the endless kinds (giant trees and vegetation, snow cap topography, in hospital desert environments, the deepest of valleys and highest of mountain formations, mind-blowing coastal areas of both rain and mist, majestic scenic eternal spring-time-like landscape)..... there really are very few other places that could compare to California... It is NOT a coincidence that California has close to 40M people and it is the 5th largest economy in the world (bigger than Britain and France economies). All the mindless bullshit about California being run to the ground by stupidity, poverty, lack of education... about California being a horrible place to live in and to work... that's just stupidity and jealous on the part of idiots who keep babbling like that, for mostly stupid political ideologies.... facts are way different.... Facts are..... California is the most diverse state, with Latinos being the largest group, followed by Whites, followed by Asians, followed by Blacks and other groups. Depending on what odd metrics you go by (such as student to professor ratios, etc, which school private universities with large private donations rank highly in).... but if you count only world class RESEARCH GREATNESS ----- what they produce in engineering, mathematics, molecular biology, computer science, nano-technology, high-end consumer creativity/high tech, astronomy, physics, medicine and medical research, etc ----- California is home to 6 to 7 of the Top 20 or so biggest research universities in the world.... research universities that have a R&D budgets of $1B or more a year on hard core science... research universities that run close to 50% of the the biggest US government's space, nuclear, and energy research labs (e.g. Lawrence Livermore, Jet Propulsion, Los Alamos/in New Mexico, Sandia, Lawrence Berkeley, SLAC, etc). UC San Francisco (world class medicine school, 100% just graduate studies, 2nd largest R&D labs in the US, after only Johns Hopkins).... UC San Diego, home of the GoPro technology & 7th largest R&D labs in America.... UCLA, 6th largest R&D labs... poor Stanford, 9th largest R&D in America... poor UC Berkeley & poor Caltech that don't even rank in the competitive Top 20 in R&D spending.... Point is, again, California is NOT what uneducated Right Wing politics, politicians, and Cons keep saying what it is; California, in fact, is RICHER, more educated, & economically MORE POWERFUL than 95% of the COUNTRIES of the world.... bigger than India, France, Britain, or Russia. India has 1.47B people, larger than China's population now... Russia has 145M people... Germany, around 80M... France and Britain, close to 68M people... good ole, lazy, uneducated, Lib-dominated socialist California has 39+ million citizenns and it is the 5th largest economy in the world. That is NOT because California receives tons of hand-outs from economic power houses like Mississippi, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, etc. that are dominated by highly successful political Conservatives who keep saying they are better, know more, better educated, more tolerant, more giving, etc. omic creativity & vicissitudes....

@@kiabtoomlauj6249 Texas has beaches (367 miles of shoreline), stunning caverns and canyons, 91 mountains, lakes, rivers, and forests. You did not drive through much of Texas.

Glad it helped! Apologies for the late reply on my end. To make an informed decision, I recommend researching the current construction projects, economic forecasts, and industry trends in both Dallas and Austin. Good luck!

Glad it was helpful!

Which city do you live in?

Amen!

Thank you. Where do you live now?

Hi there! Progress brings challenges and mixed emotions, but it's not all bad. Best of luck with your future endeavors!

Absolutely, climate perceptions are indeed relative to one's previous experiences! "Acclimate" that's a perfect word you used there. I guess that's a must before we can 100% consider someone's take on the weather! 😄

@photoguyoc9775, how would you rate the Texas weather to summers in Phoenix?

@@brucegoolsby1470 Last summer I lived in the Houston area and the humidity was the big difference from Phoenix. With that being said, 110+ in Phoenix with single digit humidity vs 90+ in Houston with heavy humidity feels equally miserable. I would say they're different but very comparable as in you don't want to be outside in either place.

Glad you asked! Check out our video here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5OodPMbfEsw.html

Not 100% yet pretty much going to travel around and see some things just getting transmission rebuilt so much rug getting everything ready to go, but there’s I always heard there was money to be made up there. I do I am a jack of all trades frame houses mostly work on cars

Thank you for sharing! and thanks for tuning in.

@@LIVINGINDALLAS Do you know of any programs to help disabled seniors move to Texas?

Sorry, I don't have specific information about this, but contacting Texas Health and Human Services (HHS) might provide you with useful information. Here's their website: www.hhs.texas.gov/.

Thanks! what was your favorite part? 😎

@@LIVINGINDALLASthe part when you said that you have lived in New Orleans of course 😆

Thanks for pointing that out! Are you all set for San Antonio, or still considering other areas? Check out some of our old videos for Insights into the areas north of Dallas.

I have lived outside of Austin my whole life, you live just outside of Austin and go to Austin for the amenities. I work in Austin, many great job. If there is a patch of woods in Austin you can better believe its full of homeless people living there. The city council is running a money laundering scheme with homeless issue. They have millions and spend it somewhere, but you sure can see any results from it. There are still many great places go in Austin still, but for the most part there is like this one tiny blue bubble that is Austin and right outside of it it change deep red thru the rest of the state. Forgot to mention the summer weather will beat you down. I grew up on a farm, I know.

Awesome! That’s planning ahead!

😁🤐

Going to hear myself

Where do you live now?

@@LIVINGINDALLAS Limington, North Carolina I grew up in Roxborough, North Carolina, about two hours from where I’m at now

Awesome! Is there any specific area in TX you have your eyes on?

No sir

Hi there! thanks for tuning in. What's stopping you?😉

@@LIVINGINDALLAS Slovenians being obsessed with crime rates and stuff. But honestly I feel like Texans have this weird ability to make you feel good about yourself even when you have a really bad day. I've met a few of them when I worked in a hotel. The warmest folk I've ever met

Thank you...

​@@sunbrahunless you're gay or need an abortion, I guess.

Wonderful! Were your previous visits for business, or do you have some folks living in Dallas?

@@LIVINGINDALLAS My previous visit was to accompany a relative on a business trip. I, myself am not employed in a high-income position.

​@@ji-wonseong1623depends on where u live in WA. Personally, I hate anything above 100 F, and cannot stand humidity. I love rain.

Thanks for pointing that out! And thanks for tuning in.

Well, ain't that the truth! Texas is a whole vibe of its own.

You're coming from NC, right? What do you want to know, and which town do you have your eyes on now?

Quite a Journey you had! Let us know if you have future plans.

Hey! what's stopping you? ☺ where do you live now?

Awesome! thanks for tuning in!

Wishing you the best on your move to Washington State - new adventures await!

Thank you for your honesty. I love the weather of the Pacific Northwest!

While the high property and sales taxes may seem like one of the 'cons' of living in Texas, they enable notable trade-offs, such as not imposing a state income tax, providing residents with relief from this particular financial obligation. A fair deal if you ask me! Where do you live now?

@LIVINGINDALLAS I am not knocking the state of Texas. I think it's a fine state. If you can ignore the politics. My concern with Texas is the struggling power grid. And my wife's best friend lives there. There's been concerns over the water quality. The power grid, Fluctuating property taxes, and again water. I am no stranger to Texas as my career as a otr truck driver bought me there many times I love the state and the food. But I'm local driver now so I haven't been to Texas in almost a decade. But I remember a lot of good things about it when I could get past the heat. I live in Michigan.

​@@esham976agreed

Perfect time! where do you live now? Call or Text: 214-441-6684

I hear you, changes can be bittersweet. While the rapid growth in Texas has indeed brought some challenges, it's a fair trade-off for the opportunities I can now offer to its future sons and daughters.

Where city?

As long as people moving here. As long they do not move here with the intention of changing the tradition ways.?

I live in a small Tx town .Where ever I drive somebody is on top of my bumper .Plus way too many big rigs clogging the highway .

What do you mean?

@LIVINGINDALLAS like Santation jobs because in California the drivers make $33 but in Texas the drivers make $26 or $27 I think 🤔

@@user-dh5vx5gf8k yeah but u got no income texas and cost is cheaper :)

​@@user-dh5vx5gf8kbut at the same time you don't pay state tax

In the 90s and 2000s when I was growing up it was NOT good lol. I'm also from West Texas (which is even more conservative). I'm sure it's better now, especially in large, urban areas. But always remember, at its core Texas is a very conservative, rugged, masculine state. The people are kind, but not super open minded and they can be aggressive. Part of the beauty of Texas is that it is fiercely independent and its ok to be passionate and somewhat defiant there. But the negative side to that is violence in Texas isn't seen as being as unseemly as most other states. Texas is actually one of the only states that has a 'mutual combat' law, where you can challenge someone to a fight, and if they accept, no one has charges pressed against them unless someone takes it too far and results in death or hospitalization. This isn't to scare you away, there are still lots of LGBTQ people in Texas, and Austin had a great scene when I lived there in 2012. I'm sure DFW has a great one, too. Just always be paying attention and understand that there's a large segment of the population that doesn't agree with the LGBTQ lifestyle, so don't move there if you can't handle people (especially older folks) giving you the side eye. Also understand there may be times where you need to back down, because a lot of Texans won't, even if it means a fist fight. Unless you're into that sort of thing

Only Austin tbh it’s not grade in Dallas and or Houston at least in my experience. I’m not a member of the community by any means, but I didn’t see it much.

Thanks for tuning in!

Oh, and Texas apparently hates pregnant women who need an abortion for their safety.

Thank you for tuning in! where do you live now?

@LIVINGINDALLAS I moved to New caney tx area more trees and land for myself and peace

Hi there! Where do you live now? We have other videos that discuss a bit about schools.

Of course

I did make up my mind...that's why I live here! :P

@@LIVINGINDALLAS Haha, get 'em Levi

Haha, everyone's got love for their home state! Iowa does have its unique charm. Different strokes for different folks, right? 😄

Thanks for sharing! I understand, changes can be bittersweet. 🙂
