Question: Where to live in Texas ???

[GMC_2002_Dmax]

Hey Guys,

I am seriously thinking of moving in the next year, I have had it with the Blue Northeast.

I am looking at a moving to a solid Red State, a warm state, Texas is on the short list.

Help a Yankee out and tell me where I should be looking and where I shouldn't.

Thanks,

Tony

What kind of environment are you looking for?
Big city or small town?
Do you have kids in school?
There are alot of great places here in Texas, just depends on what kind of life your looking for.

Small cities 100,000 - 200,000 people, San Angelo or Abilene hard to beat, Large cities San Antonio is hard to beat and easy to get around in. Little towns, just about anywhere in Texas. What type of climate and amenities are you looking for.

FWIW, my wifes a transplant from Maine and loves it here

I really like the look of north texas, at least the parts I've been to. It's not a desert, land is nice and what not. Plus I like the laws in texas!!

I am a native Texan, and have traveled all of the state and lived in many parts of it.

If I could move back there today, it would in the San Antonio area. There are a lot of nice communities there. I particularly like the areas North and Northwest of town.

Obama won't take Texas without a fight, I want to be there if the shit hits the fan.

Mexicans are everywhere, including here in CT.

Small Town close to a Big City

Do you have kids in school?

One is heading to college at Wake Forest, NC,
One is going to be a Junior, one is heading into 8th grade, so schools will be important

Near a Lake would be great, always wanted a boat just didn't want it dry-docked 6 months out of the year.

[LarryJewell]

San Angelo has 3 lakes and a drag strip, and all the good restraunts except for Fridays and Joes Crab Shack

This might work-out well Tony................I'm sure I can think of some reason to come see ya' in October/November! You be sure to have me a tree picked-out. I can bring the 'silent' weapon if you end-up too close to town!

Did I mention that cousin Larry has some land on the Colorado River 30 minutes north of San Angelo with deer and wild hogs

I would love to live in Texas

 

[eds04max]

No you didn't!..............just publicly announce that you have a honey-hole in TX ..................and even made it sound like I might be welcome!
I must be seeing things..........I'm gonna' read that again just to make sure.:rofl::rofl:
Seriously, that's cool Larry...........I've been threatening to sneak down to Texas for years............just never seem to get it done.
Anyway, back on topic here..........Tony's looking for a new home.

I havent been to the place in a year or so, kinda no fun anymore after you've been elk hunting, but my son takes a few hogs and deer every year, but yes Ed, if you make it down in hunting season, your welcome to take a shot.

Come on with it.

I was born and raised here in Stephenville Tx(60 miles south west of Ft.Worth) and like it alot pop-16,000 without the college students.Anywhere around central Texas is nice. The laws in Texas are ok, I do know that if you get caught cattle wrestling, legaly you can still be hanged.But they wont do that to ya.

Overall Texas is a very nice place,just dont go to far west:rofl:

I don't think i have ever gone to TX and not either got in a fight or almost got in a fight. The ego's down there are off the wall.

 

[maxaholic]

Depends on where you go in Texas. I don't know if any of you fellow Texans have ever been to Lampassas but the people in that town are a bunch of A-holes. They have no courtesy to outsiders whatsoever.
