If you liked "IRENE"... You'll LOVE living in the Texas Gulf Coast.  It's a yearly occurrence.

From where I stayed in Texas, I could see Lee (then a tropical depression) on the horizon.  As it gained strength, it  caused rougher surf and gave us some good steady "breezes".  It also impacted weather for the drive back home.

I wouldn't say that I like hurricanes or tropical storms but at the same time -- I definitely do not like cold and  snow and ice for 4 or 5 months of the year.  

And from what I have seen on my visits to Texas --- Texas is a great place to live.

Here's your hat-what's your hurry? And take your lying aliases with ya.

Ya, srsly.  It's better here in Texas

But you'd have to live in TEXAS   No one actually moves to TEXAS on purpose!

oh? Really?

That's why Texas is gaining more seats in Congress.

I guess I forgot to consider the illegal Mexicans.  They do move to Texas, but only for the jobs.

YUP!  Great state for low wage jobs.

Quoted from Box A Rox

YUP!  Great state for low wage jobs.

Because we all know, EVERYBODY is entitled to a high wage.  

At least people are working and can pay their bills in Texas.

Really?
Texas ranks 6th  in Poverty.  Some 18.4% of Texans were impoverished in 2010, up from 17.3% a year earlier.
And being poor in Texas isn't easy. The state has one of the lowest rates of spending on its citizens per capita and the highest share of those lacking health insurance. It doesn't provide a lot of support services to those in need: Relatively few collect food stamps and qualifying for cash assistance is particularly tough.

A combination of demographic and economic factors contribute to the high poverty rate in Texas, where many families, particularly in the southern swath, live in ramshackle housing with no utilities or indoor plumbing.  The George Worst Bush Economic Meltdown  has driven a new crop of Texans into poverty's grip: the formerly middle class. "The middle class are losing their jobs and are not able to replace them fast enough. "That's driving them straight into poverty."
Even those lucky enough to get one of the new jobs created in Texas may still find themselves struggling to make ends meet. Many of the positions that have been created are on the lower end of the pay scale.

Some 550,000 workers last year were paid at or below the federal minimum wage of $7.25, more than double the number making those wages in 2008, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. For someone working full-time, that's just over $15,000 a year before taxes, which is under the poverty line for a single parent with two children.

Some 9.5% of Texas' hourly workforce are minimum-wage workers, the highest percentage in the nation.

Like I said... Why would anyone move to Texas on purpose.

I met a good number of people who had moved to Texas from --pretty much -- every other part of the USA.
