I moved here from the East four years ago, before the serious exodus from California. Higher prices for housing, staying away from Interstate 35 and away from all communities that branch off. Our way of life is changing, and there are serious concerns; where is the water coming from, the grid updates, the education (and various arguments about what type of education) the last thing I want is the Californication of Texas. We just remind people we have snakes, scorpions, you can carry a gun legally, and it is CONSERVATIVE. We have statues of soldiers, there are a lot of CHURCHES, and a short drive is an hour and a half. Very different here in Texas. Don’t change Texas adapt to how we live. You left California because your rules and regulations killed your communities and livelihood. Don’t bring that crap down here.
