Cheaper cost of living than many other places. Minus points - no mountains, but has beaches. Lots of churches, art museums, trains, planes and anything else you need or want. Lots of cheap land still available.
TanyaL,
Agree with you, except for the "no mountains" part ... Texas DOES have mountains ! Maybe not the size of the Rocky Mountains etc, but we have the Guadalupe Mtns and Davis Mtns and more in West Texas, beautiful Big Bend, plus our "mini" mountains out in the beautiful Hill Country !!
Agree, the Med Center here in Houston and MD Anderson are top-rated in the US, there's no better place to get care if you need it.
