WHY THE LONE START STATE IS AMERICA’S FUTURE! Do pick up a copy of this week’s TIME magazine and go to page 30. It’s not by accident that 3 of the 5 fastest-growing cities are in Texas. It’s more like destiny – by Tyler Cowen. For $300,000 in San Francisco you get a 210 sf loft apartment, in Chicago a 900 sq ft for the same price, but in Austin 3,052 sq ft for a 4 bdr, 3 bath home. Houston has NO zoning, but seems to work out OK. Too many rules and regulations hamper other cities and states. Yes, some jobs are low paying in Texas, but also more than their share of upper end salaries. Texas is weak on social services and needs to strengthen that area. In Texas people are friendly and look you in the eye. The cost of constant stress is not appealing and moving to Texas where the cost is acceptable and a good time to START FRESH.
