Texas isnt cheap like folks think. If u getting paid then u gonna have a good time. Otherwise good luck
this is a lie. i know ppl with 3K+ sq ft houses out there that cost the same as a 1500-1700 sq ftr in vegas. and they're better quality, made of brick. the taxes thing is also big....

78 of drivers have state id's for driver licenses...u can buy cars with ya id..

alot of companies when u buy ya car.. u get liability tacked with ya monthly payment...

everybody jus about... that got a car from freedom.. in dallas automatically got their insurance plus their monthly

It's still an higher average of uninsured drivers than most states. That's why car insurance is so high in Texas.

My Tennessee car insurance rates compared to if I was still leaving in the DFW area are not even close. :picard:

If your liability insurance is 200 for a Infiniti then that’s on you bro. Either getting ripped off or your driving history is complete ass. That’s normally $50 tops.

Energy bills are high because A/C is mandatory in the summer. But outside of June-Sept. very cheap energy bills.

There are toll roads but the major freeways don’t have tolls, at least in Houston. 59, I10, 610, 45, no tolls. There are two major tollways, Westpark and Beltway. Not necessary to take those tollways regardless of where you are going.

Property taxes are high, no doubt. But houses are MUCH cheaper than most states. Rather buy a 300-350k 2 story home with 4 bedrooms, than pay 2mil for it in California. Who even buying houses in California unless you from a wealthy family? You can make it in Texas from nothing, not sure why people in here acting like its only poppin for rich white folk.

Yes, the summers are fukking trash. Too fukking hot.

But im cool with ya’ll not coming down here regardless. Getting too crowded.

Yeh blame me for the prices of insurance. Everyone in Texas knows insurance is high bruh and my driving history isn’t ass. You ass for being a Texas apologist :what:

Them homes are not cheap in texas in 2023. What people get paid in texas vs the west coast...the margins are a lot wider than home prices. Plus most them people you talking about who got cheap 3k sq ft homes living an 45 min to an hour from the city. Factor in property taxes as well.

i live in vegas, them ppl get paid a lot on the west and east coast but what they get for their money is shyt. there are million dollar homes in Cali that are basically 2 br log cabins compared to what you'd get price per sq ft in Texas.

shyt even the houses in vegas suburbs are older and cheaply made but go for 360-410K for a 1500ish sq ft home. My mom owned 3 houses in texas before she sold one, i guarantee you i know what i'm talking about.

edit: since you brought up property taxes, the property taxes on the east and west coast are dramatically higher than anything in Tx. them niccas is paying taxes on taxes for closets

There are toll roads. There are non toll roads. This is how it works everywhere.. I pay over $400 a month on my energy bill. Where is it affordable?


If Texas ever gets legal weed I’m moving there permanently. The republicans time is coming to an end in Texas. It’s growing to fast to stay with them dated ideas.
Be completely the fukk delusional brehs:dead:

Low taxes in Texas is a myth. They use the zero income tax as a pull but they have to make up that shyt elsewhere (property taxes, tolls, fees, etc.). It's definitely nice for big earners, but the median taxpayer ends up paying more than they would in most other states and they get shytty-ass services on top of that, like some of the worst health care access in the county.

Texas is a great State for people who love travelling, sight-seeing, intrigued by different cultures.

If you a stay at home monk, yeah, you are going to hate it here, or anywhere really.
Disagree. Texas is meant to be driven in. Their cities aren't designed for people to walk and people there drive like lunatics. If you live somewhere like Chicago or NYC, you can walk around and go where you need to go and enjoy the city without having to pay for parking and spend money on gas.


Texas has some of the WOAT city design, and it's not a coincidence the video is going viral with people agreeing with it. It's crazy how if you don't have a car you're putting your life on the line walking around. God help you if your car breaks down and you can't afford an uber or taxi.
