I moved here to Texas from Upstate NY 18 years ago...So happy I did!!

[billdavis]

Native Texan, I live in a rural town the best part is we all watch out for each other, so the thieves don’t have a snow balls chance in hell of not getting caught or being shot!

As a recommendation, for us old timers it would be nice to add in weather extremes i.e., floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, fires, earthquakes, volcanoes, cold/heat, and any other disasters that states, counties, cities, and towns are likely to have when rating places to go. When looking to move to a new area, we oldies sometimes forget to look at these things before moving. High humidity and extreme cold and heat have serious affects on joints and muscle tissue and we may not notice the problems weather presents when moving in the off seasons.

My 1 bedroom in El Paso cost me $450 a mo. That includes the Water and roaches. It was built about 1950. A few years ago a guy from California moved here and bought the building then started to raise the rents. I lucked out due to an agreement between the new owner and the previous owner I am still paying $450. A lot of Apartments in this area include Water. I have had the Mexican food in Laredo and still think El Paso has the Best. However the Best Mexican food I found in Laredo was in a Chinese restraint. The owner and his Family where Chinese but the cooks were Mexican. The Chinese food was crap but the Mexican food was good.

I enjoyed this; was stationed in Corpus Christi and did a lot of trucking out of Laredo and El Paso. Laredo is the 3rd or 4th largest port in the U.S.

I’d be willing to bet El Paso becomes the next and last Texas boom town. It’s like parts of Southern California climate wise. Fantastic food and outdoorsy opportunities. And the downtown reminds me of Portland before it gained popularity, only without the cold and rain.

Excellent video but leaving crime stats out was misleading. You only touched on Brownsville's crime. You're spot on about the costs on all these places but in some of these places retirees could be kicking the oxygen habit really quick because the per capita VIOLENT crime rates are pretty high. Amarillo, Laredo, and even Brownsville are higher than the national average. Beaumont and Corpus Christi may be as well. I don't know for sure offhand. Waco isn't too bad but is bordered by the city of Bellmead, which has a very high per capita crime rate across the board. Now, are they Detroit, Memphis, or even Houston high? Nope, but they are still higher than they should be. El Paso is cool. I was stationed near there for four years. The only real issue it has is its isolation. There is no other large metro Texas city anywhere near it. The nearest big city is Albuquerque in New Mexico and that's not really a good thing as their crime is pretty bad in some areas. In parts of Texas, it's not a requirement but it helps to know some Spanish. That's particularly true in the border cities. As an example, the parents of my ex from a town next to El Paso (Socorro) were legally American but didn't speak a word of English. That's actually common in smaller towns outside the border cities and even the border cities themselves in some areas. I'm a young retiree in the DFW area. It's gotten expensive (for Texas) because of the mass influx of the CA Evacuee Locusts and others but I'm doing OK. I have a steady residual income, a paid off home, paid off car, and am debt free. I am literally surrounded by any type of medical specialist I need and have multiple options. I have access to tons of restaurants and things to do. There's something for everyone here. If by chance I want to skip town, I have DFW Airport close by and can get anywhere in the world on one hop or less. The big negative to Texas is property tax rates. The 7th highest in the nation. Even with exemptions, in most cases they are still a little high. As an example, I got on Redfin and priced a home in El Paso. I then priced an almost identical home about an hour North into New Mexico. The property taxes on the New Mexico home were over half off what they were on the El Paso home even though the two houses were almost identical. That's something to keep in mind.

Honestly, this type of video is a good idea to do for every state. I wish you'd do one on Washington.

[texasrebel]

The Dr.Pepper museum is in Waco...well worth the visit....

[bethhughes]

As someone who has lived in Wichita Falls for most of their life, it is so funny to hear other people talk about it. It very much is a sleepy town but there is a lot of effort going in to making it better.

[pamelamays]

Here in San Diego even in the "bad" neighborhoods, a one bedroom apartment is darn near 3, 000 bucks a month.

[irismartinez]

I lived in Laredo, TX, it's a great place. The best Mexican food I had in Laredo. Loved the town and the people. Wish I would of stayed there.

[jerryschramm]

I think that when most people think of Waco now, they think of Chip and Joanne Gaines, rather than David Koresh. Though it seems that the Gaines' are trying to live up to their names, building tourist attractions with overpriced items, food and, now, renovating a hotel so they can profit further off their name.

[itaylor]

For anyone thinking about moving here- there’s a reason those places are so affordable. You get what you pay for.

11:05 wow Laredo has a pretty decent skyline for a city that size

[bonesandbells]

The $520/mo. rent in Killeen is most likely in north Killeen and pretty much everywhere north of I-14 is terrible. HEB closed the only grocery store in north Killeen and the mortar fire from the base would be very loud there. The south side of Harker Heights is pretty nice or Belton/Temple, but you're getting back to $1, 000+/mo. rents.

[deniselove]

I live in Abilene. I think it is the perfect place to live. We have Dyess AF base, and we love our airmen! (That’s not the case in a lot of cities!). Plenty of wonderful churches filled with the most friendly people, great schools, great universities, and enough shopping to keep you happy! We have some good restaurants, too. Abilene is just a wonderful place to build a good life!

[johnplatt]

El Paso has the best year round weather. No humidity as in dry heat, no hurricanes, tornadoes and all that! The only thing missing is Trader Joe’s.

[Pistonstrokes]

I've been a subscriber for a long time. You've made countless videos that have been so great to me as we've both served in the Army. Im a year and a half to retirement and I've felt You've facilitated me in making informed decisions regarding post retirement life.
And it looks like Texas will be called our home soon

[DavidLopez-ypxo]

Look, before you buy in Killeen look at the surrounding area of Coppres Cove and Harker Heights. Little more costly but better quality neighborhoods. Brownsville and Abilene are great places if you’re a retired. Amarillo is great but nothing around unless you like a short trip to New Mexico and Colorado; awesome good and on Route 66. Wichita Falls is truly boring but great for outdoor activities life fishing and camping. They got sundown towns nearby so got to be careful. But overall great snapshot of Texas. Great job Briggs
