I will NEVER own a home. I went to Texas Tech from 1980-91 working on my education. My husband died in 1989. No life insurance. Finished degree, moved back to Fayetteville NC because my parents were old. I lived in apartments. Apartments keep going up. Cannot save for a down-payment AND pay ALL my bills. Never remarried. My parents house was $18,000 in 1964 and it was appraised in 2014 for $71,000, that's about 4 times the amount it originally sold for. But that's 40 years. However, TODAY... a coworker and her husband bought a house for $220,000 and put $40,000 down making it $180,000. 7 years later...JUST 7, there were houses being built in her neigborhood. Out of curiosity, when there was open house, she went into one that had the exact floor plan as hers. She said it was being sold for $320,000, in just 7 years, it went up $100,000!!!!! WTH??!! America is a Capitalist country that I do not want to live in anymore. I lived in Lubbock from 1975-1996, 21 years, and moved back to NC. How? HOW does a house in NC go up $100,000 in just 7 years??!! I am a school teacher and the amount we are paid, I will NEVER own my own home. It makes me cry. My rent went up $500 in 2 years, ($250 a year). Real Estate is a money grubbing job. I am 69 years old and can't even afford to retire. I predict in about 5-6 years, I will be living in my car. Have to be a member of a gym that has showers. Sale my car and get a van that will cost MORE THAN MY PARENTS $18,000 HOME!!! I am thinking about moving to Thailand or South Korea just so I won't have to live in a van. But research shows me that, that's my only alternative. Problem, I won't know anyone there.

Lubbock has hail storms every spring, i was hit twice. If you move there, make sure you have full car insurance!

Hi , my husband got 2100 $ per month scholarship for living. Can we both can survive at that amount

I would say, and highly recommend “City of Wolfforth” given shear amount of higher end homes being built in community, small town feel, safety, and the best public grade A+ schools to send your children too.

Coming from a big city, Lubbock is boring but its charm comes from the nice people that live here and they have at least one of everything, (walmart, target, starbucks, Ross, Marshall, Dillards, HEB, United, etc.). Just wish they had more ethnic food places, but they have good pizzas, burgers, steaks and BBQ.

Hey just wanna ask would you say talkington is a good school 😅

Its sucks. I was trapped there for 11 years. It's not diverse at all. Most people grow up there and they don't know anything beyond what they can see and they have no Ambitions to leave and they are xenophobic against anyone who's not from texas. I'm not even black but I was discriminated against like I was even though I have a German last name and I look as white as everybody else. There is no opportunity there and everything is one way and if you don't fit that way then there's no place for you in Lubbock so don't listen to this guy because he's trying to sell you something. The only reason he's saying positive things is he's got something to gain by saying these things. The crime rate is through the roof it is ugly and boring there and unless you're a retiree and you don't ever leave the house or your college student there's nothing there for you

I live in Lubbock and I LOVE IT

The City is physically butt ugly. The people are like weird Rednecks

So is this also Buffalo Lake

We're living in Lubbock for almost 3years now..I found this place very safe and less crime....its near to AMARILLO and 5hours drive to Dallas if you want to unwind❤..

I'm a Cameroonian PhD student looking to study at TTU. Would like to live off campus so I'm guessing I'd expect to spend about 400USD per month in shared housing

power grid sucks.

Best place to live around Lubbock is out of Lubbock through the crime and drugs and the fact of congestion in the south part of Lubbock it’s just not worth it to live there understand that it’s disastrous to have Lubbock growing like it is when we actually need more in North Lubbock than anywhere else Think about it

Please find me $200,000 home in Ransom Canyon😊

Hows the Internet service? I know that Spur, TX has fast speeds available which is important to me but unfamiliar with Lubbock's Internet

That’s a sick Lubbock poster, where can I get one?

This city has the largest cotton field in the world

Hello Bender Thank you for this amazing video. I am Zamim and I am transferring to Texas Tech this Fall. Also, I am from Bangladesh and looking for off-campus housing close to the University. Some suggestions might help if possible.

Great material. We acquired a 64 units at Fort Stockton and looking to get a property at Lubbock and midland now.

the great thing about lubbock is the weather dry cool and no humidity. i'll b moving either to santa fe or albuquerque new mexico in june. thx for your videos. patrick.

lubbock not just dangerous and ranks high on the danger list but, its very windy and dusty and an ugly city. not a desirable city to live in.

Just subscribed! Do you live in Lubbock? My family and I are renting in the Austin area. Everything here is to expensive. Looking for a nice, safe, and affordable place to purchase a home. Thank you!

I have watched all the videos on your TH-cam channel. Your channel has high quality videos. But your videos are not perfect or good in terms of SEO. I am an SEO expert and I want to work with your channel to improve your channel, which will increase your views and subscribers in a short time. I have been doing this successfully since 2020..

Замечательный город лаббок

What can you say about westmont?

any ideas about the apartment renting

Just recently visited Lubbock and Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center for the Physical Therapy program and I have to say I was just absolutely MIND-BLOWN with the university campus and the health science center! Also after watching prior videos of you speaking about Lubbock, everything was SPOT ON and was expected as stated in the videos about Lubbock! I even got to drive around the city of Lubbock, eat at a really good local bbq restaurant (missed out on Evie Mae’s which I didn’t know about until after the fact), and everything is close by, the homes look awesome! After visiting Lubbock and Texas Tech University, it has moved up to a top two choice and I could see myself residing here for PT school if I get accepted! I’ll definitely be staying up to date with your videos so I can stay informed for if and should I decide to move to Lubbock and attend Texas Tech for PT school.

I grew up south of Lubbock. My dad was a farmer. We shopped in Lubbock and attended church there all throughout my childhood. Would like to see this video redone with actual footage of the places, parks and people you talk about. You seem to know how to put together a good video, but please consider getting some actual footage instead of relying on stock footage. I think it would give your audience a better idea of what to expect. Some of your footage actually showed people on a beach??? I know you're not from the area because you say "Lubbick" (cringe) instead of "Lubbuck" which is the pronunciation that natives use. I would think you would want to appeal to the native Texans from surrounding areas as well as people from other parts of U.S. who might be moving here by pronouncing the name of the town correctly. The stock footage use seems really lame when it's so easy to just film on location easily. I didn't watch any other of your videos but wanted to make these suggestions. You can take them or leave them. good luck

Very informative video! I’ve watched a lot of your videos about Lubbock as I am considering of attending Texas Tech University of Health Sciences Center for Physical Therapy school. The way Lubbock is described as a big city with a small town feel and with it being a college town kind of reminds me of Davis, California. A college town, small town and not too from Sacramento.

Will be moving to lbb in 2024! Can't wait! Going to Houston vs Texas Tech football 9/30

Grew up in Lubbock, left in '85, now in Austin. The two biggest cons of living in Lubbock has to be the sand storms and the fact that Lubbock is perpetually 20 years behind in just about everything.

Music too loud and your voice is too low.

Looks like south lubbock needs some pine trees,alot of brown in them yards too.

Tell me the thumbnail is taken from Metro Tower!?

I will be living in Lubbok from Japan for work, is there any discrimination against Japanese or oriental races?

Plz guide if I come in the month of Nov 23 is it possible that my daughter will get admission in middle school, is education free for her else what will b the minimum fee for her.plz guide

U sound kinda sad. Or down? U ok, sir?

Hidden cost could be severe hail damage during spring months. Make sure to carry full coverage! Don't ask me how I learned this lesson 😂

lubbock is the cheapest city in texas

Suburbian hell

The east side of Lubbock is a real shithole though. 💯

I moved away about 5 years ago. I miss it. Lots of good times and people there. I live in Waco now. It is a pretty place with trees and water but the people seem friendlier and closer in Lubbock.

The bar scene in Lubbock has exploded the past 5 years. It's insane. The gym scene too.

The elephant in the room is the level of crime in Lubbock.
