I mean, being honest, the weather IS nice. Once the government is cleaned up and the homeless/crime problem taken care of to some extent, I'd imagine people will start flocking there again. For the record, I'm not talking about LA or anything like that. Inner city housing sucks in every state and the cost of housing is absurd because of basic supply/demand. But I'd imagine smaller towns and cities will become boom towns, assuming this actually goes down how we think it will. Same thing with Colorado, Oregon, and Washington. All beautiful states, but corrupt governments.

Honestly, I'd rather live in Texas anyway. Even IF the weather is God awfully hot at times, the people are nicer and the food is better. I was just making a point. People move to Florida and Arizona to retire because they're red states with good policies, tax incentives and have warm weather. Assuming California goes red, I can't imagine there won't be a massive influx of retirement communities, ala St. Petersburg and Scottsdale pop up all over California.
oh i didn't realize you are here! Welcome to Texas! Yes, we are friendly, and nice, with common sense and decent values. Very strong military community in my home town of San Antonio. Where do you live?
Heh, don't live there yet. Been looking to move out of my crap hole state for a while now though. Texas is one of the three states I'm debating between moving to though. Along with Tennessee and Idaho. As far as Texas goes, I'm actually looking at that area. I'm not much of a big city person, so I'm looking mostly at counties a little south of San Antonio that are driving distance away. Best of both worlds. Access to a pretty big city when I need it, with rural living.
At this point it's a matter of do I deal with cold in Idaho better, the humidity in Tennessee better, or the absurdly high temperatures in Texas better. I'm still talking it over with my family to see what everyone would want best.
That part of Texas is really pretty and you can't go wrong being rural. Are you in CA now?
PS it's not always hot and humid. It is kind of unbearable June July and Aug. Good to have a swimming pool if you can. It's very pleasant and mild the rest of the year.
Nope, I'm on the east coast. I'm kind of used to humidity to some point, so that's generally good to know. I kind of picked that area since it's in the middle of hill country. Not exactly mountains, but close enough for me to satisfy my scenic backdrop fetish.
