Texas is western… BUT i have always though that Houston has more elements of Louisiana and the South than Shreveport does- even though Shreveport is actually *in* Louisiana .. Living in Houston for a while, i attended more crawfish boils than i ever did in La.. and there are far more LSU fans in the Houston metro than there are even in New Orleans (not per capita, but more total).. i think a straight up trade of Shreveport for Houston would make sense, though of course Texas would never agree to it .

Tejas is some of both, so anybody can argue either side.
The real Dinglebears are the ones who call Ohio the Midwest.I expect at least three dvq's to dv this post, with a few more following later. They cannot read a map, but love the cock.

East Texas until Houston is as shitty as most Southern States. Like Beaumont would fit perfectly in ghetto arse Louisiana.
Houston is it's own animal. Definitely not western or Southern. International City.
San Antonio starts to get more of a SW Flair. Once you get west of the Hill Country, the sky opens up and the West begins. South of San Antonio is more like an extension of Northern Mexico. North of Dallas is the Great Plains all the way to Canada.
Very unique state and I like it all minus the East and Far South.

There's a lot of South Louisiana in SE Texas. Some of my ancestors moved from Vermillion Parish to Jefferson County a long, long time ago. And more kept coming.

Lived in both these places and I mostly agree with this.
I've thought the Shreveport/Houston swap made sense for many years!
