Texas is the only state that could be a great country on its own.
It has tons of oil and farming. It has a growing tech community in Austin.
The Texas panhandle is an amazing place with all of the farming, including wind farms. Lake Meredith is beautiful.
It has a great transportation infrastructure compared to most states. The highway systems in Houston and Austin are amazing. ( Many props to TxDOT )
San Antonio is a nice city.
El Paso is a nice city. Even with Juarez next door, El Paso is much cleaner and safer than cities like New Orleans, Detroit, Memphis, Etc.
The Austin area continues to grow at an amazing rate. It is a great city, regardless of your politics.
There is great hiking and camping in North and West Texas.
There are some decent beaches on the coast if you get away from Galveston,
Overall, I really like Texas

While great is subjective you can't discount California which has an economy ~50% larger than TX.
