What BestPlaces Users Say about Texas

The state of Texas is known for its diverse landscapes, vibrant culture, and booming economy. With cities like Austin, Dallas, and Houston, it attracts residents from all over the country. However, before making the move, it's important to know what current residents have to say about living in this particular place. After scouring through numerous user reviews on BestPlaces.net, it is clear that opinions are mixed. While some individuals rave about the state's beauty and opportunities, others express concerns about its climate and cost of living. Here are four excerpts from different user reviews that provide insight into what it's like to live in Texas.

1. "I absolutely love living in Texas! The people are friendly, the food is amazing, and there's always something to do. Plus, the cost of living is affordable compared to other states I've lived in. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else." - Sarah M.

2. "I moved to Texas for work, and while I appreciate the job opportunities, the weather is unbearable. The summers are scorching hot and the humidity is unbearable. I miss the four seasons and being able to enjoy outdoor activities without melting." - John P.

3. "I've lived in Texas my whole life and I have no complaints. The state has a rich history and there's always something new to discover. However, the traffic in cities like Dallas and Houston can be a nightmare and the cost of living continues to rise." - Maria R.

4. "I moved to Texas thinking it would be a great place to raise my family, but I was disappointed. The school systems are underfunded and overcrowded, and the lack of affordable healthcare is concerning. We're now looking to relocate to a different state." - Mark L.

Living in Texas - 1/9/2011
Texas is friendly and the value of homes for the cost is great. Salaries are comprable to other places that cost more to live and the cost of iving is reasonable. There are so many different landscapes in this state. Eastern Texas is so green with a lot of lakes. In the south there is the coast. Westward is like the old west depicted in television. There are a lot of variety and options for school, career, and it is possible to live outside a major city and feel like you are in a small rural Read More

Been to Fort Worth before and... - 10/29/2010
I went to Fort Worth, TX on a sort of extended vacation (about 3 months) and I must say I thoroughly enjoyed myself and was impressed at the atmosphere and the friendliness of everyone. Both my husband and I were unfamiliar to our surroundings and never, not once ran into anyone who was reluctant or anything but welcoming us, many wanting to talk about the "Up North" life and the trip from Michigan to Texas. I plan to move there in 6-8 months (or sooner if my family can procure jobs and housing sooner) and don't have any doubtful thought about doing so.
