All these people swearing Tx is perfect never mention the issues here and the difference in COL. they tax you to death in Tx. Crime rates aren’t non existent. Worst of all, everything and everyone is super generic. The homes are almost all lookalike cookie cutter. The people are all transplants mostly from CA, NY and the Midwest. They’re all weird and standoffish. Nothing like Louisiana folk.


This describes my TX experience well.

There’s definitely worse places to be than metropolitan Tx but let’s be honest. Its proximity to La plays a massive role in why so many of us end up here.

If Mississippi offered the same exact opportunities, we’d be flocking there too.

As much as we pay in “school” taxes in Tx we could just pay for private school in La. These “school taxes” are how they build these ridiculous FB stadiums. The roads are decent I guess? But if you want to get around you really need a toll tag because they design it where the free roads are very inconvenient and pretty much force you to drive the toll roads.
