I've always thought about it. But after recent life changes I'm thinking now is the time, start over.



Reasons why

It feels like we can't live a decent life out here. I'm 27 now with a four year old and girlfriend soon to be fiance. We both work way too damn much to be broke constantly and not even get to do anything fun or enjoy life



I'm 27 and been working since 17, never missed a day of work nor called off. I'm a hustler and a dman hard worker. No matter how much money a bring in I'm always broke. Life is way too expensive out here. A decent place is easily 1500 plus utilities and a nice area is 2k plus. I've never taken a vacation and don't have a savings account. Living out here is like we are fighting just to stay afloat. life is constantly about money and not enjoying life.



I have family that have made the move and love it. My cousin my age came from here in the same boat. Always broke and living off pennies. Four years later she saves, spoils here daughter and takes multiple vacations a year.





I recently lost my job for some BS and I think this is finally time to start over and fresh in a land that still has a dream possible. Are our thoughts of life in Texas made up? Or are you guys really as happy as you all seem out there? I'm open to all honest comments and feedback. Thank you

1.5k for rent in a decent area doesnt sound too far off from what rent goes for around here.
Life is still good here, not pretty with nice beaches, hot girls everywhere and good weather year round, but good. Real state is still pretty affordable. Plenty of jobs for hard workers.
Just please leave calis politics behind in cali, please.

depending on which area you plan on going to, traffic can be annoying. also our air quality isnt that great. grass is always greener i suppose man. also texas is part of the bible belt so our political views are set. idk, its really what you make of it, and whatever industry you're apart of. GL man, life amirite.
