Texas is a wonderful place to raise a family, that's why my wife and I are doing it. And while there are certainly more people moving into Texas cities (i.e. Austin, TX and Dallas, TX), than leaving, there are families leaving too. Ever wonder where they move to?

I did too. Living in Texas is something special, while we tend to have to battle traffic congestion in some cities more than we'd like, we also have plenty of wide open spaces.

Here in The Lone Star State we've got the best BBQ joints, parks to play, more and more coffee shops everyday, a somewhat shielded economy, and plenty of oilfield and medical work. This means a lot of families and young professionals call Texas home.

If you're into sports, we've got sports. The Texas Rangers are on a tear this year, The Houston Astros are every year. We've got Luka in Dallas and unless something weird happens Victor Wembanyama coming to San Antonio. And the whole world knows that the Dallas Cowboys are America's Team.

But, where do people move to when they leave? It's actually pretty interesting. It would seem most people who leave don't go too far, many opt to stay around Texas, but some do spread their proverbial wings and fly... to California.
