Texas has mountains (Guadalupe Peak is 8751 feet), the 2nd largest canyon in the U.S., (the Palo Duro Canyon), beaches, forests, rivers, lakes, 4 large underground caverns, and the huge pink Enchanted Rock in the Hill Country. Ten percent of Texas is desert, 44% of the state is flat, and 38% is forested.
@@christianguzman6510 Galveston is not a glamorous beach. South Padre is a nicer beach. It is far from DFW. My point is that Texas is a complex state in geography.
Great video…as always! You give a feel for this BIG state!! And it does vary from area to area! I love it!! You don’t have to go far to explore something new!
I am definitely looking into all this because I'm planning on moving to Texas from Illinois I am nervous about it because I've lived in Illinois since I was born this is my first time moving out of state but I have always wanted to get out of Illinois
@forwardthinkingtrucker I'm doing ok I'm still in Illinois I won't be able to move to Texas though however I do plan on leaving Illinois at some point though
El Paso has the best weather in Texas, and you did not even mention it (I stopped the video at 3 minutes). Houston is much more humid than San Antonio and is much more unbearable in the summer - I used to live there, and I also lived in Austin. Nice that you showed my alma mater at 0:15 - Rice University. I sold my property in Texas and moved to California, and I now have a house near the beach in Los Angeles and a house with a pool in Palm Springs. I've been in southern California since 1989 and only visit Texas for funerals.
Hello sir! I am presently in Houston and not feeling it! Traffic, road, weather sucks! I can probably make a move to El paso in 5 months! I am single and would feel it would be a great move or a different world per say! Any advice would be appreciated thank you Troy!
Yes! El Paso is my home town and I love the people and the weather. El Paso is so underrated!! Currently in Lufkin, and boy this heat hits different!! Interesting that you went the other way TO California, rather than leaving it.
Looking at this because Texas is still part of my vision, I still plan on moving there. I can't right now because of insufficient funding. The way I see things, Chicagoland (where I unfortunately come from) has no place in my picture.
@@richardedmiston3756 I did at one point, back around 2010-2012. But that was because I was too young to really think on things and I went there twice between those years to see family, they've since then either went back up to IL or to other states. Texas is the first serious option I've considered in my lifetime, and it's been over ten years since I last went to Tennessee so I don't know how it is now.
Houston is worse than San Antonio for humidity but yes SAT is bad also, Dallas Fall and Spring last about a week or 2 for each if that. Dallas (city of) has become dangerous IMO. Was never like that until the last 8-10 yrs. Traffic is really bad now. Amarillo can get very cold. Everyone in the world moves to Frisco. Takes forever to drive a mile there. Also a very big state, roads are bad meaning pot holes and such. All major cities are liberal, Austin being San Francisco II. The outskirts are very conservative/right leaning. The coast/beaches are not anything like Atlantic/Pacific. In Rural areas you might see someone riding a horse to the store. Go west, lots of open private land
Im moving to texas from tn in a few days for a better career opportunity, nothing in particular, maybe a better warehouse gig an housing situation. ( anything that pays more than $13/hr😅 ) hope im making the right choice, allota videos on why its a bad move but im going with my gut i guess
Hi Aelia. I have lived in the Dallas Fort Worth area for more than 20 years. I am also a Realtor and can help you find the right place If you decide. Message me and I can help
The heat really seems more intense in DFW in the Summer time June July and August I believe because all the rooftops here and no breeze Houston and San Antonio, Austin have a breeze that helps as they are closer to the coast look at the record highs among the big cities in Texas it’s actually at DFW at 113 and last Summer was 110 one day San Antonio, Austin and Houston don’t really get that hot. But with that said in spring and fall San Antonio Austin and a Houston can reach 90 more often than DFW like in March, April, May and October, November since DFW will have more cool spells in the fall and spring. And also you just go 30 minutes south and west of San Antonio you will reach 100 more often in south Texas and you go 30 minutes north and west of San Antonio and 30 minutes west of Austin it might not ever reach 100 some years in the Texas hill country it’s really a tad bit more mild. Houston may not reach 100 every year but it will feel every bit of it if it’s just 85 just from the humidity but the breeze will help down there but in the wooded areas up north Houston maybe not so much but at least you got shade but that air in Houston is thick almost all 4 seasons and 30 or 40 down there will feel frigid actually like 10 or 20 due to being such a wet cold. In DFW specially east of Dallas will be more humid Rockwall and Forney so tempertures could be more milder less cold/hot just more humid and west of Fort Worth Weatherford Hudson Oaks Granbury is generally less humid so tempertures could be more cold/ hot than the metroplex at times. It can snow every year just 30 minutes northwest of Fort Worth But southeast of Dallas it’s very rare and extremely rare for the other San Antonio, Austin and Houston but these can all get ice that can cause power outages more frequently.
These are some interesting points, I haven't really considered. I felt San Antonio and Austin felt more hot because of the humidity, but it could have just been the time of year. Thanks for sharing!

Hello Dana (& Pastor Brandon).....thanks for making this video (I am guessing, yesterday), with these 10 (important) Things a person needs to know before moving Texas in 2023. 👍👍📝 Sadly, The Lord God's Provision for my desire in moving to Texas probably won't happen in 2023 unless....a mighty act of God happens next month or February, allowing me to relocate to the Lone Star State. I am still praying, asking for HIS Will (not mine) allowing me to move and relocate to a Texas city maybe, in 2024. Thanks again, Dana. God's Mighty Blessings to you, Brandon, your three teenagers and also your dog as well. 😊🙏🙏🙏📖 Merry CHRISTmas! 🎄🎄🎄

Hi! I would like to reach out to you Dana and we are looking to move out to Texas. We are from California, your videos gives a lot of good information. Hope we can talk soon!
I don't blame you for leaving California I'm planning on leaving Illinois and moving to Texas as well, IL is about as liberal as liberal can get and is a very crooked state I want to get away from it

False! There is so much diversity. I mean yeah, there are whiter cities and suburbs just like any other state. That doesn’t mean the state is segregated. I’m Mexican and have never experienced racism or felt unwelcome anywhere in Texas.
Those darn southern states. They’re just refusing to play along with your BLM ideologies, or what? Maybe you’d like Austin… they’re all about defunding the police and all that kinda stuff.
Amarillo is the worst town to live its got too much crime to many murders just giving heads up. Apart it's an ugly city I know cause we have to go their once a week the little town I live in doesn't have anything like stores to shop at but I dread having to go their.
That's a great question. I have an agent on my team who specializes in Active Adult communities, maybe she would know. Just send me an email to danapollardgroup@gmail.com and i'll forward it to her.

The property taxes are horrible. 6-8,000 a year. It's hot as hell and horrible traffic.
No income tax though😅
@PLT123 Yeah but from what I've heard the property taxes more than make up for it
Oh the heat! Been a few summers out there and you will see

How do I get a government apartment and daycare in Houston Tx please ?

Thank you Aaron!
Dallas and all cities have no idea how to deal with freezing weather or snow - if it snows here everything comes to a complete stop.
I'm a Canadian looking for change, currently living in Winnipeg, and I think Texas would be a good state to live in.
So is Tennessee
Thank you for what you do.
