    Have lived in Abilene since 1972! I have lived in a small farming town (Hamlin), a large City Fort Worth, and even a short time in Midland. My favorite out of all of these is Abilene! If you are a Conservative you will feel right at home!

    We have stayed in Abilene three times on our trips from Nova Scotia Canada to our wintering site in CA. I would have been there again in 2020 but "you know what" happened. Abilene is a terrific place, we loved it's history. Visited the Frontier museum (twice) and could not believe that we were allowed to take our dog into the museum with us, YES a very dog friendly town. It is clean ,friendly and a great place to spend a couple of weeks as we traverse that wonderful country called the USA. We WILL be back once all the madness dies down and look forwrd to seeing everyone at the Whistle Stop RV Resort.

    Can anyone help me understand the humidity of Abilene? I am used to Los Angeles arid climate, hot into the 90s for summer. Are Abilene summers hot and arid or are they humid? I’ve been to Austin and San Antonio in August and it was the most disgusting humid heat I have ever felt, like absolutely horrifically hot and sticky, please tell me Abilene is more dry ?

    • @TonyaHarbinTeam
      @TonyaHarbinTeam  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Abilene tends to be less humid than Austin and San Antonio, but the summers are extremely hot, so days with 100º+ and 40% humidity are not uncommon. Weather Spark has a good amount of data about the climate of Abilene, and you can compare it to other cities! weatherspark.com/y/6226/Average-Weather-in-Abilene-Texas-United-States-Year-Round

    • @TonyaHarbinTeam
      @TonyaHarbinTeam  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      For under $2,500 a lot of families look at Forrest Meadows, Carriage Hills, Lytle South, Parkside Place, Hampton Hills, or Butterfield Meadows. There are a lot of great neighborhoods in Abilene under that price, we would definitely recommend coming to visit and checking out all of them before making a decision!
