  • Tesla’s gigafactory and Apple’s second-largest campus aren’t the only big businesses coming to Texas. From Oracle to Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Elon Musk to Joe Rogan, Texas has lured an increasing number of big businesses and billionaires away from California since the pandemic began. While California’s population and job growth both slowed to a trickle, Texas added more residents than any other state in 2020. CNBC talks to those moving and longtime Texans about the reasons behind the trend and what it could mean for the future of the Lone Star State.

    My neighbor moved to Texas. His home sold in 24hrs here in Cali, there were 10 buyers vying for the property on the first day of the listing. Everybody is happy. However, coming back to Cali is very, very difficult. If prices jump another 30% over the next 5 years or so, the home will be well over $1M. He was a gardener, and sold flowers on the side. It's crazy.

Then you have higher prices not lower. The real problem is inflation, our government's spending is way past out of control and that creates inflation-translated higher prices everywhere on everything. Keep the regulation to a minimum, stop inflation, and let people profit from building houses and the market would go down. Too many brainwashed people for that to ever happen tho.

      Have you been to Texas? The only thing we don't have in terms of landscape is a huge fault line. Ok maybe a couple of other things, I grant you, but there are mountains, deserts, forests, rolling hills, a coastline, mesas, rivers, lakes and so much more. My intension is not to harp on you, of course, but there are a lot of similarities between the two than you give credit for. Also, Texas is huge enough that the weather varies greatly from the cool weather in the panhandle, dry and hot in the western/southwestern portion of the state, humid as hell in the central Hill country and a mixture of all in the eastern part of the state. While the weather in California is exacerbating conditions for huge wildfires, so is Texas. Climate change is something that should be taken seriously regardless of political affiliation, because these two great states deserve to be preserved in all their glory, not be burned to the ground.

    What these economic geniuses are overlooking is "supply and demand' You bet you could by 5 times the house for the money you'd spend in California. The more people who move there, builders and developers are also in business...and they will see this increase in demand and adjust their prices accordingly. And with more people, there will need to be more roads. And more schools. And more parks. And the other thing they are overlooking is that while houses didn't cost as much in Texas, jobs didn't pay as much jobs in California. What's going to happen is that all these people welcoming this California influx will eventually start to resent them when they see the increases in the cost of living.

      Not true. it's what the liberals did to their area. Houston and LA have a similar GDP per capita and population over 1 million, yet Houston has lower taxes and regulations, and Housing costs twice as less.
      Their are multiple different building permits for commercial builders that not only increase price in time spent on project, approval and regulation, including specifications adds costs for upkeep, and some even speculate the real-estate bubble is artificially kept up through deals between home-owners associations, realtors, and politicians, and given the potential short-term fallout of cheaper real-estate prices, I'm willing to believe.
      Let them build as big as they want, as fast as they want, free of intervention, their will still be grievance lawsuits for deliberate shoddy construction causing loss of life and damage.

    Remote Work doesn't need to be Independent. You could have Employee Offices in extremely cheap areas when your Business is in another State. This allows for spreading Work Opportunities to Rural Areas and Small Towns where people can't afford to move into the Expensive Cities where the High Paying Jobs are. This dynamic is a Game Changer for Companies and Employees.

    This video is over a year old but not out of date. Texas continues to grow with most of the growth coming from people moving from other states to Texas. We've lived here for 10 years. We came from a northern state. We are ordinary, middle income people. Here's my take on what was in this video. 1) "Business friendly" is a cute phrase for we'll give businesses anything they want at the expense of ordinary people. 2) They never fixed the electrical grid problem here after the terrible winter. There will be big problems again. 3) "Freedom" in Texas is a word used mostly for " I want to own as many guns as I can, even automatic weapons and carry them anywhere, even into McDonalds." The word freedom is also often tossed around when a city talks about a bond election to get money for parks or something that will benefit the community but the grumpy do-nothings don't like it. 4) Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, scares Republicans here more than the growth of the population of Texas possibly resulting in more liberal voters moving here. Even the gun rights guy at the end basically says come to Texas but leave your liberal views in California. It doesn't work that way. 5) Finally, and this is only my personal opinion but if I wanted to write volumes, I could site many examples, Abbot is an idiot! One thing is for sure, it will be interesting to watch the battle of the giant states in the coming years and how it effect America.

      Jim Jefferies said a while back about the US. If you want people to stop coming into the US, stop telling everyone its so great. Lol.
      Likewise, Texans need to stop telling everyone else its so damn great. Lol.
      Texans should just be like: Texas sucks. You don't want to come here. You'll hate it.

      The trick for a liberal takeover in Texas by the IT companies is very easy: just let them own their toy guns and instead of implementing state income tax, just raise all the other tax already in place, like real estate and property taxes, road tolls, sales taxes, admission to parks and so on. The vast majority of them already can't live in the liberal cities anyway so it's not like they bother each other

    Don’t let them fool you with taxes. Property taxes in Texas have risen dramatically. We keep our property tax system because it is a class relic that keeps schools in certain areas underfunded. Not everywhere, but Texas is infamous for this.

    I moved to Austin about a year before all the business started coming here. The technocrats are smothering the area financially and stamping out all the things that made Austin unique. Austin will be the next silicon valley with insanely overpriced homes failing utilities and frightening financial inequity.
