let’s do pros and cons of both (I’m not from either)

Cali
+ Great weather year round
+ Highest paying jobs in certain areas (ex: Nursing)
+ Vast, expansive state full of millions of thing to do
+ Marijuana friendly
+/- Very liberal, relaxed state, can be a pro/con depending on the person
- Extremely high COL
- shyt traffic in dense, populated cities like LA


Texas
+ No income tax
+ Lower COL
+ Good weather year round, can get extremely hot
- Anti marijuana state
- Red state
- lower paying jobs


It depends on how you want to live, and what stage of life you are in. Me personally, I'm not sold on either place. Cali is great but rent and everything else is sky high. Texas is cool but they hate weed and the pay is lower for my job field.
California = very few blk ppl. Texas = many blk ppl

You chasing cac trash on Rainey st:ufdup:

Boys complaining about it being hot in central Texas is like complaining about water being wet.. you in Texas muthafukka :mjlol:

My brother in christ, i lived in texas all my life aside from 5 years. I have the god given right to bytch about this trash ass weather, and its been getting progressively worse.

Can you live good off 80k a year in Austin?

Yes and you can do it inside city limits. Look at apts on South/North Lamar or closer to 290. depending on your lifestlye a single apt is about 1200 - 2200

It depends on your current income and what is important to you.

Cali has the best weather in the country but cost of living is high, public transportation sucks, lots of homelessness in certain parts, crime. But if I had the money I could easily see myself living in a San Diego suburb. I hate L.A. but places like Oceanside, San Diego, O.C. and more are pretty awesome. Furthermore, Cali has a better healthcare system than TX by a significant margin, arguably the best public university system in the nation as well.

TX is humid in places like Houston, which is not for me. It has a lower cost of living but also has lower wages, high property taxes, tolls everywhere, regressive legislation in many instances and certain parts of the state are ultra backwards and you will probably never step foot there. It is Blacker than Cali, more lax when it comes to gun laws, no income tax and if you have the capital, it is a good place to invest in a property as the state is pro landlord.

It really comes down to your financial situation. When it comes to women I would say it is a tie. SoCal has incredible diversity and lots of women from different races that date brothers. Texas has tons of beautiful black women, thick white women, and semi decent Mexican women when you can find them as well as other races. But it comes down to preference but from experience, Cali was better for a single guy who is doing well financially.
