I think there are quite a few people who are not moving to Texas, myself included. Though I did briefly consider moving back to Ft. Worth so I could vote for Big Bird in the upcoming US Senate race.

That being said, I do really like visiting Texas. Canoeing from Possum Kingdom Lake down to I-20 along the Brazos is one of my favourite things to do. But property taxes are too high here. And there are no real parks. And pretty much every highway is a toll-road. And the last time I saw a fresh vegetable here was in 1989. But visit the Kimbell if you go to Ft. Worth and the Meadows museum on the SMU campus over in Dallas has a decent collection. And despite the occasional hard freeze, it's much more temperate than Chicago.

But move here? Nah.
