Welcome To Texas.
Winter is at 6 am.
Spring starts at 10 am.
Summer is at 2 pm.
And fall starts around 4:30ish.
Dress accordingly..
Dhananjay S That’s a joke right if you think Texas winters are long come visit me in Idaho you will freeze to death
@@colesullivan9659 Definitely we will meet. But nobody can't predict Texas's Weather. Thanks for your comment..
Dhananjay S well even if Texas has unpredictable weather you guys still have way hotter temperatures than us. We’re deep in mountain country, we get tons of snow and our winters last till may/early June. You have to have a lot of cold resistance to live here.
Fall is more like 5:30-6 lol, still hot at 4:30
Oh, and yep texas is one of the most bipolar states for weather, love it. 😂
florida
Those people in Dallas drive like they're prepared to die
But in Houston they drive like they're tryna kill you
Houston should have a mandatory drivers ed when you get your lisence.
Last time I was in Houston I had to drive 20 over just to keep up with residential traffic.
@@Wyrmshadow I'm from Atlanta and Houston traffic humbled me 😂 that's saying something
Have you been down here to San Antonio?!?! Jesus Christ
@@edwin768
That bad huh? Ha!
Texas boi here and we have a saying for speeding in Texas
Texas people: they can't stop us if we're all going to same speed
That's right bro!
That is so true!!!
Show me a person with a car and I’ll show you a person who speeds.
Those top ten to not move makes me want to move there even more.
Texas always drags me back. Here I come Texas!
Facts!
Yhh
News: TORNADO IN YOUR AREA EVACUATE NOW!!
Every Texan: *stands outside* "wow that's cool"
.
People generally don't evacuate during tornado warnings.
Ikr
Only cowards hide
Well that's not really true. We go indoors when they get close. I mean it's not like you can't see them coming.
Texas may need to build a wall to keep people from California out.
Lmao I’m from California 😭
I'm from Texas, went to cali for the marines, but after 14 years away I'm moving back
Have you been to California? Can't blame them for wanting to get the f out.
Yall know ladders are a thing, right?
Correct is "Josif Stalin"
Speed Limit: 60
What Texans read: 90
Hey, it just says "Speed Limit". It doesn't say whether it's an upper or lower limit.
@Toby Garza Well damn. It seems like you guys in Texas drive fast! What about the highways you guys have where the speed limit is 75 mph? Does that mean everyone goes 90mph +??
@@gaberillman6778 Speed limits get up to 80-85mph in Texas and a lot of people do drive 90-100 on those.
Toby Garza i laughed way too hard at this LMAO
The speed limit is a recomendation
#1 don't move to Texas if you're from California
Too late. We're invading quick. You'll be a purple state within 10 years. A blue state within 20 years.
Or New York.
@@emceeunderdogrising that's what you think 🤢
Don’t move to California if you’re from Texas. Lmao
@@skylerhoman6645 Californians aren't American
People in Dallas and Huston be driving like if they are ready to see Jesus in the next 3 seconds 😂😂😂
Lol
Try Atlanta
As a life long Texan, I've come to the conclusion that there are only two types of locations on the planet. Texas and not Texas.
@The Internet is Always Crying good. We don't want your ass here anyway
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 HELL YES!!!!
As a native Texan I'm going to have to steal this. Love be it
Yeah; the first is the asshole capital of the universe.
same !!! houston here
I wish United States Citizens loved the United States as much as Texans loved Texas.
agreed
Texas Is Wonderful...
@@ultrapop2157 Yes, yes it is.
Alaska is better. Plain and simple.
@@tannerhughes6274 State Pride!!
As a Texan, the biggest reason not to move here is the weather system, tornadoes included.
The summer is brutal, the thunder storms are violent as hell, and the day to day weather changes at the literal drop of a hat. I've lived here my entire life and it's freaking insane.
But hey that weather bubble protecting Dallas from tornados has been pretty nice . Aside from Rockwall a few years back
@@drugsarebad97 Doesnt do me much good. Had one hit about a mile up the street from me last week. Thankfully wasnt a big one, but it fucked some shit up.
@@imapopo2924 well a tornado hasn’t hit the center of Dallas in such a long time . It’s kinda odd actually
What are the cool or cold months??
Fun fact: Houston, Texas's largest city, is located less than 5 miles from NASA's Johnson Space Center.
Because of this, the very first word EVER uttered on the Moon was "Houston."
:)
Dallas is actually the largest city. No one cares about city population. Metro really tells the story. All those people in the metro travel into the city limits.
Dustin King no its not it houston look it up
Gran Torino well now , that is quite a stretch
@@jackculp9776
Seriously, Google it!
Right after the Apollo 11 landing module [codenamed "eagle"] touched down on the lunar surface, Neil Armstrong said "Houston, Tranquility Base here, the eagle has landed."
:)
@@dustinhiggins710 no, Houston is 4th largest city, while dallas is 4th largest metropolitan
Texas is known for many things cowboy hats,guns and whataburger
Chance Wilkerson
Whaddel burger is more like it.
Whataburger over In-N-Out any day. I just wished they had more locations in and around the Phoenix Metropolitan area so I wouldn't have to drive to far to get one.
Tacos too and Buc-Ees for some reason
Nova-x -force but the in-n-out milkshakes are lovely!
Buc-ees has Texas size restrooms , that are clean . Also the food that made in the store. BBQ sandwich ++
*When you live in Texas while watching this video*
I hate this video I LIVE AND LOVE TEXAS
I live in texas
Hailey Playz LOVE? 😂😂😂
Anjew gang
Living in TX and can't wait to move out. Not for me.
Texas will likely continue to be great until Ca. finishes moving to it.
Dallas morning news just released an article showing more people moved TO California than they did to Texas, source named so you can fact check.
Also, Texas might be red but every major city is BLUE. I'm from Dallas. It's turning into a shit hole, same with Austin. Highest murder rate in 2019 that it's seen in decades, homelessness on the rise, taxes going up every year. Texas has the worst healthcare in the nation, insurance rates are some of the highest.
Texas isn't what it used to be 10 years ago.
Greg Akinson Now that is funny, I just want to cry.
Oddly. A large segment of the people who are moving to CA are from Texas.
Hahaha thats really funny, but for some reason California people are starting to come to texas,why because its better.
@Wilson texas has always been great and yeah people move because its cheaper which is a way easier and better way to live your life. you just can admit that texas is getting more and more better.
I used to drive in china, When I was driving in Texas I feel so good! The Texans so civilized!
Wells Yu Welcome!!! to Texas man I hope you love it here as much as we do!
Other than crappy traffic when rush time hits it is a good state. There are aggressive driver hear but most people are nice hear
@Ab Ba Good gravy. Let them follow whatever they want. Freedom of religion you goof.
@Ab Ba I'm a God fearing American man. I don't push my religion on to others. I will help lead someone to God but not without them wanting it. When did I say not to speak out? You're putting words in my mouth. You told the person to look up the bill of rights. The first amendment is about freedom of religion and free speech. I love my rights and they are no more important than yours. I would never want to silence you or your speech. I just dont get what my religion has to do with being an American citizen. I don't like the stigma against Christians and how some try to force their lifestyle on others.
@@jacksonbarry5727 Haha I’m also from Communist China. Many communist Chinese who come from Communist China still love Mao Zedong . So it’s necessary to tell them to read the Bible and the constitution when they decide to move to the great conservative state, Texas. Otherwise some of them will turn everywhere in the United States into California. America doesn’t need any spies or agents like Fang Fang anymore.
MAGA!
Number 11. I35 has been undergoing construction since 1897.
Shoney Carpenter: So is 290.
When I lived in Austin, roads like US Route 183, Lamar Blvd, Congress Av, and Anderson Ln were constantly under construction with no end in sight. Guadalupe St and Barton Springs Rd were rough, rutted messes that never seemed to attract the attention of highway repair crews except to patch the worst holes.
Bruh this is so true😭
😂😂
LMAO, Very True.
Texas is great. But we have enough people already don't move here. Especially if you're from California.
Zachary Lankford we have too many people here....5 o clock traffic SUCKS
Zachary Lankford Look at my comment might give you a laugh .
What a cliche you are.
Chris Shawn thank you
Joe Boscarino you're right it did make me laugh.
as a dude who lives in San Antonio, this is kinda true.
Texas also rarely has ANY snow.
But
In Winter 2017 it snowed epicly. I found this out cause at the time I was doing karate, my instructor said. "Ladies and gentleman, it is snowing."
Literally everyone rushed outside and watched in awe.
Thanks for reading this story, stranger
I’m from San Antonio and yess!! I remember that day lol
welp.. in february of 2021 texans weren’t so happy to see snow
Weeeeeell.... not exactly. I've lived in Denver and North Texas. Most years amarillo gets as much snow as Denver. The Texas panhandle is wild, you never know what could happen, the windiest place there is. I have lived in San Antonio for a while, I recommend you stay its beautiful lol.
Hah, I'm from San Antonio too. I remember that 2017 snow, it was nothing compared to this year xD
I was excited until we froze this last winter 😒 now I hate snow
I learned everything about Texas from King of the Hill
Gosh Dang it
You know why Texans have trucks. We do work round here
Lol
So true
You know why northern minnesotans have 4 wheel drive trucks? We do work in the snow.
@@twaxagone5989 yeah I could mess with y'alls winter in east Texas it was 80 on Wednesday wake up this morning its 21 its bipolar winter but I'm thinking its always cold as balls in your neck of tee woods
@@jmarkwhite272 ive had my eyes freeze shut when i blinked. -70. That was friggin cold.
I left New Jersey for the lone star state and never looked back
Aaron P i believe you
I brought a skill and lined up a job and contribute unlike a lot of people who come here
Aaron P please tell me about your experience, I am looking to move to Texas and create some distance between New Jersey and I.
I know what you mean Molon, my parents brought me to NJ back in the 80s from NYC when NYC was trash, now NYC is for the rich and NJ is still trashy or trashier. So its become obvious to me, that NJ has been spiraling downwards since the 60s, I mean they can't even get marijuana legislation they can agree on because they are just trying to implement a state-cartel version of legal weed and screw the little guy, but NJ NORML won't let them pass it. Every major city in NJ is filthy and an eye-sore. My family and I are in the process of moving to Texas. By the way though, if you read the comments on here, its rather discouraging to move to or from anywhere. So I am only looking for level-headed family oriented responses, lets pretend our children are in the room here, if you read many of the comments below, sheesh. I don't get it. Why all the anger issues? Does Texas have good jobs and plenty of them? is it a family-oriented place? Do they have laws that are not trying to screw over the little guy? I mean you would think the average person would gravitate towards that. Don't understand the insults towards Texans or Californians. I mean, California has become a place for the super wealthy, so normal red-blooded Americans want to leave, makes sense to me. And the most discouraging, are the "commie" comments, seriously folks? Who is writing these comments, a 63 year old baby boomer from the McCarthyite era? "commie" no longer has the sting you think it does sir, please enjoy your retirement. If you are a millennial making these comments, dude, you got issues, stop typing.
Juan Mangas Mochas I have no clue what a liberal idea is to you sir since I can only guess at your level of education from this vantage point. Your comment is pointless and rude and leads me to believe it is you who is not even originally from the South. As someone who has lived in the South, not Florida, but Georgia and Virginia, rude comments are considered impolite.
I'm from Texas, born and raised. l absolutely love this video, l found it to be humorous and quite accurate. God Bless and take care! 🇨🇱
I hope there was a actual Texas flag 🇨🇱
I love Chile
🇨🇱=chile
I'm from Texas.
I love my State
It has everything you could ever want
👇🏾 If you Love Texas
Everyone is welcome in Texas. Just come and respect our rules and culture. Don't talk crap about our guns or our state and you are good to go.
You nailed it Don. If people are willing to fit in they'll be accepted. Embraced even. But come looking for a fight you will be obliged.
But if you ever stop by Texas look me up. XD
Take heed, I lived in Nevada for 38yrs, and I watched this beautiful state slowly get turned into commifornia!! Extreme leftist moving away from their home state only to vote in policies that they are running away from!!!
If I had the money I wouldn't mind moving to Texas my mom was born in Corpus Christi the only thing that scares me is the twisters
David P Burns
I don’t know about twisters in Corpus Christi, but I lived in the greater Houston area for 9.5 years & have regretted moving ever since!
McAllen, Tx: 21 gyms, 94 taquerias.
derrickmagallanes You forgot the taco trucks .
Not a bad ratio
Slav Dog most of them are right wing conservatards.
I live in Corpus Christi and there is more places to eat here per square mile than any other place in the country. It is crazy. I wonder how they stay in business but they do. somehow.
I live in Mission near mcallen
For y'alls info, the bad and aggressive drivers are actually people that move from other states. 🍻
VERY TRUE Majority of the people are not true Texans
Exactly!
The Californians
Yeah you say that because you can't take any responsibility
Florida looking at you!
Texas: come on vacation, leave on probation.
sorgism I have ever laughed so hard
And come back in a violation
@Happy Cosmos ,exactly
I’m from Georgia and I love Texas god bless you guys out there
I love Georgia! I'm a Texan, and I have family in Georgia. Georgia is a beautiful, great state too!
Roger Ghai Thank you brother, nice thing to say. Now, just bring me one of those Georgia Peaches. No, I am not talking about the round fruit. LOL

Love and props right back at ya!
Roger Ghai I’m from Atlanta
Lived in Dallas. I miss the food in texas
Texans are big because they love beef. My car broke down near Waco. A local was helping me but we had to call a tow. The homeowner had to go to work and insisted I stay in his house ...alone...to wait on tow truck. I became a Baylor fan that day.
Yes but some say the Retirement Vinard of rich Texans has plus oaklahoma in a way is a poor mans Texas to many tornadoes for one thing winters are horrible
Im vegan and im not skin and bones. Might be all that tofu.😂
Was it Chip Gaines?
show us on the teddy bear where Art Briles touched you....lol
So there just fat people
I,ve been to Texas from the UK,I,ve never encountered road rage.I found Texans very freindly compared to other states I went too.
Same here when I was in Dallas from the UK some nice people.
unsubscribe this ass is really insulting Texans. He is worried about his lack of man hood.
I live in Lithuania. I was in Texas in 2003 (Lackland AFB as international military student). Enjoyed everything about TX except summer heat.
I love the Baltic myself, but yeah, thats a bit of a change in temperature... 😁😁😁😁
Don't California my TEXAS. Period............
Don't Texas my CA!
If Texas was a blue state, it would be Illinois.
Texas will never compare NEVER!
Michelle Misir FACTS
I know that's one thing I can't stand. Come to Texas but then want to change everything that make this state great
Even the Texas mosquitos open carry!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Overheard on Padre Island: "I'm from Florida and I thought the mosquitos were big in Florida, but these mosquitos are so big that you have to give when one hits you or they will break a bone.
YEP...you can even hear them coming!
Lol, I have a saddle holster so my horse is packing too.
And their FAT!!!
So do the Cockroaches
Hey man, thanks for making this video. We love company! And If y'all do visit Texas (VISIT,not stay), stay the hell out of the fast lane. We got shit to do. 👍
🤣😂
Spot on! Thank you, I've enjoyed the reality with you!
Welcome to Texas, but please don’t forget to go home.
Take everything away that wasn't produced/manufactured in your beloved Texas, and you become the unholy sire of Haiti and Tijuana. Go eff yourself, slick.
Zane Le' Geire Sounds like you forgot to go home.
I like that. Hahahaha. Almost like "don't let the door hitcha on the way out".
Hey there y’all, non hipster Texan here. Not all of us are like this commenter here. Come here and stay if you want, many of us are reasonable, successful professionals and realize your local state may not be affordable, have too many liberals, you got transferred here for work; etc. so feel free to stay here but just don’t vote blue.
Just saying, we aren’t all douchebag hipsters who whine “don’t come waaaah” lol
Nicely put, Corporal!
I'm from Texas, born and raised and this gave me a good chuckle ☺☺
Dana Jo ...
1 big reason to move to Texas:
We say “ y’all” and have a southern accent...
again most people who use the internet that are from texas aren't your stereotypical texan, go to Houston, Austin, Dallas and you will se why
ArticBread and San Antonio
We do?? I’m from Texas and ppl tell me I have a ‘British accent’😂
Nova _Draws Texan accents are cute.
I have lived in Texas my whole life, and do not have any accent, lol.
Haha, I moved to Texas from NY when I was 10 and my dads company (American Airlines) transferred him to DFW around 1983. McAllen is actually a really cool place although you kinda feel like you're not quite in the US but most certainly not in Mexico.
*you're (contraction of "YOU aRE")
"Your" is for possession.
Welcome to the RGV .
@@txrick4879 Its a badass place. I Love it

@@alvallac2171 thank you. I will fix that :^)
As a Texan I agree, don't move here. CALIFORNIA
@Blu I was and anybody could move here these people are crazy

I was born Texan and moved to California :/
Are you guys cool with Kansans? I really wanna get out there
California is crowded.
American made. Texas Raise! God bless the Lone Star State.
You're damn right im sure and Mexico dont want Texas back lmao. They want California
😀😃
Jerry Ogburn Mexico will never get TX back. There’s more guns than people here.
Uh, excuse me we are known as the best state
@@BOOMBLACKA-cn5fk were you from BOY
I'm a fifth generation Texan, and I moved to California as soon as I could. I was harassed by police in Austin and so many other places that I cannot name them all. One of the worst places is Fort Stockton. After I moved to California and had California plates and drove back to visit my relatives in Texas, I got stopped by the Fort Stockton police because I did not stop at a Yield sign when I was getting back on the freeway. The police made me go to a 7-11 ATM to get cash and pay a fine or go directly to jail. AfterT my parents died, I have only been back to Texas once in six years. If my relatives want to see me, they can visit me in California, where I feel safe.
BETA!!!
You should have reported those crooked cops, because they were committing a crime by making you get cash to pay for a fine. They obviously stuck that money in their pockets and scammed you.
@@jesseh.saunders2112 troll
Texas has all those prisons for a reason...
The police made you go to a 7-Eleven? You’re much better off in California where are your lying ass Can be ripped off by your state government
😃I'm moving to Texas when I'm old. Love the country side.
It’s a city
@@theuglybeing4673 I know I know. Mean the country side from San Antonio to Brownsville 🤠👍
My friends: It's so hot!!
Me: What do you expect, you live in Texas.
Arizona, Hold my beer.
Houston is farther south than Cairo Egypt.
Yeah that seems to be the answer to everything when you say anything bad about Texas… I’m over Texas
Guns every state should be constitutional carry.
You can definitely lose weight here if you set your mind to it. I moved here last year, decided to go on the keto diet, and lost 60+ lbs. The amazing brisket and ribs were definitely helpful in that process!
Your points are well taken. I've lived around Texas most of my life. There are three points about Texas drivers. 1) The majority of the really poor ones live in and around Houston. There are not great ones in other places, but the worst are in and around Houston. Texans know this and now you do to. 2) Drive Friendly is a very good idea because the simple fact is that alot of Texans drive with guns in their Truck/Cars. I had a friend with a broad sense of humor and he was shot and killed by a fellow Texan driver. 3) Alot of Texans drive like they own the highway. Driving at or below the speed limit in the fast lane ignoring that many people are passing you on the right is their God Given Right and you need to have patience in dealing with them. Slow moving Semis in the right lane and a cowboy in a pickup truck/Cadillac doing the speed limit on cruise control in the left lane can truly test your patience if you have a long way to go and a short time to get there.
I want to commend you and your videos. You are very bright and perseptive. You have both tact and bluntness while expressing your opinion. You state facts in a way that I find inoffensive even if I don't actually agree with you. I stumbled onto one of your videos this morning and I've watched several this afternoon. I've hit the like button and I'm looking forward to more of your work.
Yep was thinking that too. I'd rather drive anywhere else in Texas besides the Houston area.
This is a perfect description of how drivers are on Houston highways. Won't speed up or move over for anyone
I 💘 Texas😍😍 Born and raised!
Good. How about you stay there.
@@zanelegeire8683 Wow rude much
@@zanelegeire8683 Good, how about you stay in hell where you belong
Born and raised here, as well, but I'm ready to get out. There's just nothing good about being here.
Sorry for your loss.
These are exactly the Top Ten Reasons that we Love TEXAS!!!
DON’T MESS WITH TEXAS
Manuel G Chapa Jr IK
🙏
No the obesity part jajajjaa
didnt jfk die in texas
If I had the power, I would give it back to Mexico.
#1...No Doubt...super scary driving!
You Nailed it...lol
I really appreciate this stuff. I enjoy the entire states. I lived in some of the worse ones . Louisiana and mississippi and Florida and have a lot of family from texas and my girlfriend is from houston texas
Aye! Im from san antonio texas, everyones chill here
yup
Sure, even the Baby Daddy that just confessed to killing his baby son, King Jay Davila....or the lady that just shot here 2 daughters and killed herself in the million dollar manson up on the North East side.....
My City!
NW and N areas are great. SW and south...well could be better. I remember when 1604 was a 2 lane hwy.. expansion spreads wealth and gangs.
Yeah... Where on the Eastside, Westside or Southside? The only good places to live in SA are the Northside and Northwest, Northeast isn't too bad, anywhere else stay away from
TX is the greatest state in the nation.
Marc Maraccini Agreed 👍
Wilson “iF tHe MeTriC iS iNbReEdiNg AnD sTuPiDiTy. ThEn yEs It iS.”
they do love fucking live stock and their sisters in Texas.
MovieGuy666 are we sure we aren’t talking about the southeast of Texas? Rarely have I met any “inbred” types here.
MovieGuy666 At least we understand what gender we are.
Thanks for the warning well appreciated thanks
My greatest complaint while I lived in Southeast Texas had been that my allergies never caught a break. I deal with seasonal allergies. So if anyone deals with issues with mold or pollen, Southeast Texas, in particular, isn't a stellar choice. Its spring or summer most of the year.
Right!! I knew i wasn't tripping when i caught my allergies again when I recently moved to Texas it came back coming from California weather
If you ever in Texas, go to Whataburger
Man Whataburger is life
That’s the only fast food I go to!!!
Yes indeed. I live in Texas and Whataburger is part of the reasons for obesity, I'm sad to say. Too many #2 combos with onion rings and chocolate milk shakes. 👍👍👍👍👍
More like waddle Burger
Best fries (if you're into that sort of thing).
There is Texas.....and then there is everywhere else
You have Texas and then you have 49 lesser states.
I rather live in Europe, specifically, southern Germany or Switzerland, better culture, better people, more things to do and cleaner cities with lots of mountains and forests around. No 114 degrees there in the Summer and a lot,a mean less morons looking to get in trouble with the law.
@@alfonsorodriguez6437 bye bye 👋
There is Texas daddy. California
Hi guy, you are spot dead on. As a native Houstionian I agree with you 💯 👌. I have had the luxury of traveling to most of the large cities and small towns in Texas. The research of Texas is great. Anyone who, without knowledge of this state "Texas" who watches your video will be nicely informed. 🤘👍👏
I enjoyed this video...but was that a Pasadena sign in the number 10 segment?
Oklahoma is like a poor version of Texas
Gustavo Almanza
Oklahoma is a third-world country attached to the US. A shithole of epic proportions.
Oklahoma is like that insecure friend that always has to tell you that they are better than you. Oklahoma is annoying as hell to Texans.
Totally different worlds brother
There's nothing as thin skinned and insecure as a Texan.
The only reason why Texas doesn't fall into the Gulf of Mexico is because Oklahoma sucks
You forgot the allergies. Texas has some of the worst allergies in the world. It has 3 major allergy seasons of cedar, oak, ragweed, and grasses. It's the only place in the world that I have seen that has a weather forecast and an allergy forecast.
You've never been to Cali? Allergies and air quality is so bad, they include a report in the morning announcements at the elementary schools.
I lived in the Oakland area for seven years and didn’t have any problems. Maybe the fog kept the allergies down. LA I could see being a different story with the fog.
so true thnks for the info .now i know why everytime im in texas i get sick with verry bad allergies ...i begin to cough and have trouble breathing .almost ashtmatic reaction .it gets worst when i go to san antonio im planning on moving ther but now im not to sure.😭😭😭😌😌😌
Texas is legitimately one of the worst places in the entire world for allergies. Specifically central Texas. Talking top 3 worst. Look it up.
I lived in San Antonio and so cal. Mt cedar in the hill country in Oct/Nov is way worse than anything in California. Cali does have high pollen count, but cedar fever is so much worse.
There are as many people wearing Cowboy Hats in Texas as there are people in Philadelphia walking around looking like Ben Franklin.
Hambreboca Band I’m from VA, Id never seen someone wear cowboy hats and boots in public. I visited houston and there were people everywhere I went wearing them...
But still people in Philadelphia are more normal and smarter.
Been here 5 years and outside of Rodeo event seen it like 4-5 times. I’m from the north and expected to see it everywhere. The truck thing though is significant because in Chicago and NYC I didn’t see them much but here it like 30-50% vehicles. Not a big deal since I may get one now due to Hurricanes
I've lived in Houston for 50 years and the cowboy hat thing is bunk unless it's rodeo month. If you said cowboy boots you'd have a point. That you see a lot. The truck thing is real.
I'm a native New Orleanian, but I moved to Texas in 1998, and I've never looked back. I love Texas, and I can't really imagine living anywhere else. Most people are friendly and willing to give you the shirt off their back. Your list is spot on though! I think some of the obesity problem comes because it's just so friggin' hot most of the year, people prefer to stay inside in the nice A/C...and there is SO MUCH GOOD FOOD!! I really liked the video.
God Bless Texas.
Anthony Oodie yeah keep asking your fictitious sky daddy for your so called blessing. You Texans are backward and dumb!
He damn sure did
The Internet is Always Crying Shut Up stupid .
Somebody has to!
I’m a transplanted Yankee who moved to Texas at 33 years old nearly 2 decades ago. Have lived in 7 other states. Have visited most of the others.
Texas is the best.
For all the reasons those dudes tell you in the hour long conversation, and more.
Brian Carter ; We voted you can stay.
Great video. Born and raised here. True stuff. We did get a break from the heat this year. Didn’t get past 100. Looks like the west coast got it though
1. Racism 2. Violence 3. Self righteous folks 4. Brutal weather 5. Corruption 6. Right wing nut jobs 7. Drug cartels crossing the border 8. Nepotism 9. Traffic is brutal 10. Selective hiring practices
*Oh, yes- Texas is SHIT. Say it louder.*
The religious nut jobs too
I totally agree and won't even visit the place.
11. You being a fool
What the heck. You call me /a Texan, a cowboy. I hate when people think all of Texas is the cowboy land and they speak western. Heck no. Some of us are just regular people living in cities.
West Texas exists ya know
I’m from Beaumont you would see a palm tree faster than seeing a cactus
@@dchi2012 same thing here in Houston
I bet some would be shocked to know we have gators around here
@@dchi2012 Gators, Swamps, tall pine trees, beaches, and National Forests. Nobody outside of Texas would believe that. They think it is all sand and cactus.
If you don't like TEXAS...leave and we all don't wear boots and cowboy hats.
Gary Goessler we do everywhere sep for Dallas, ft worth Austion, San Antonio and in those cities a town of people still where boots and hats
I live in Texas in one of the border towns and most of the people here don’t wear boots and cowboy hats
I live in Texas and I don’t wear cowboy like
I wear my Trump hat and work boots. We don’t all wear cowboy hats and cowboy boots.
Gary Goessler yeah in San Antonio we have a lot of tejano music and Latin culture
Texas born and raised, moved out 15 years ago, the only things I miss are friends, family, friday night lights and the Galveston shrimp docks.
Wow! It's like you've lived here! I was born in Wisconsin, and have lived half my life there and have my life in Texas. The over-the-top Pride of those that were born here is RARELY mentioned elsewhere, but DEFINATELY EXISTS! If you come here to visit, you will generally get southern hospitality and they'll repress their urge to look down at you... But if you move here, never tell anyone! Native Texans definitely look down at people that weren't born here and honestly seem to believe they are better JUST BECAUSE THEY WERE BORN HERE!!
Every example of why I shouldn't go sounds like the very reason why I should
thebigs Come On, We’ll leave the light on.
Born and spent 50 years in Texas. Even for the 10 years I lived in another state I was proud to be a Texan. All the reasons are legit, I hate the heat but it could be worse like winters with temp of -30 degrees and lots and lots of snow.
East Texas Nomad I’d give anything for snow. South Texas is 101 for weeks now.
East Texas Nomad I live in one of those snow states but born and raised in Florida, I prefer the cold over the heat anyday.
Heidi Marchant same the cold temps feel better than the heat, polar bear status.
I would happily trade in -30 weather here in Alaska over 100 degrees in Texas!
East Texas Nomad I'd take cold weather over heat
I really agree with aggressive drivers. Lived there for 12 years drivers don’t respect each other
Me, my wife and young son lived in small town Eldorado 30 plus years ago and loved it. Things have changed a lot there. We drove to Tuscon on a vacation to visit friends last November. On the way back we went to Eldorado and wow, not what it was...
Shout out to Nesbitt, Texas! Another great video, Briggs! Thank you, my friend!
Thanks for watching
Awesome video. Would love to see a top 10 reasons to move to New Jersey or Washington state. Unfortunately can't give any positives for Washington cause i've never lived there, haha.
Washington has a bunch of good things. New Jersey does to, once you get into the farm land
Yeah South Jersey (or anywhere away from the cities) in NJ is really nice, i'm personally a fan of both so it's nice to me :) And yeah Washington sounds nice.
That's unfortunate, also thank you for your service :)
Thank you
Remember that day the US joined Texas?
Missed a few key issues imo.
1) The immense sprawl in the state is a significant issue. In the state’s major metro areas, development keeps expanding outward, with office parks being built in the suburbs, and the exurbs being pushed out further and further leading to longer and longer commutes.
2) The abundance of toll roads, which are often the only option of transport to work due to fewer freeways, makes commuting costly and you still have to endure slow traffic while paying tolls.
3) Another thing which could be an issue is the largeness of the state. I think part of Texans’ devotion to Texas stems from the fact that people never leave Texas. Road tripping anywhere out of Texas can be a huge inconvenience since it usually takes an entire day to get out of the state.
4) flatness/lack of nature- while there are some nice areas like the hill country and the mountainous areas out in the far west, for the most part Texas is plain and flat, nature-wise. While this may not matter for many people, this matters for some.
I think these could be more of an issue than cowboy hats etc. unless you’re moving way out in the country that is :)
Tolls? Houston, I130, where else?!
Everything is BIG in Texas!
Even Russia becomes bigger in Texas.
Im on my way 😂😂
Seriously. I noticed as soon as i got to elpaso traveling east. Even the street signs and the posts that hold the signs are fricken unbelievably massive.

Texas? Nah! You mean Alaska ;)
I love Texas because it’s basically the opposite of California
Yes!
It’s also what Illinois would be like if it was a red state.
Keely, I'm from Illinois, too! I agree
So what you're saying is that Texas is great
Also, Texas might be red but every major city is BLUE. I'm from Dallas. It's turning into a shit hole, same with Austin. Highest murder rate in 2019 that it's seen in decades, homelessness on the rise, taxes going up every year. Texas has the worst healthcare in the nation, insurance rates are some of the highest.
Texas isn't what it used to be 10 years ago. Rent is skyrocketing, you're not renting a GOOD place for under 1200/month. Houses near Dallas easy go for 250k+ now.
We Texans are very prideful. It's our normal so I never noticed it until you mentioned it in your video. We do have a small, southern accent with commonly used words like y'all or em. For example one might say, "Hi, how are you doing?" while a Texan would say "Hey how y'all doin". I enjoyed the video, keep em coming!
I’m from Texas, this is very spot on. It hurts my lone star to admit that too.
Great video. I have lived in Texas for 25 years. Everything is spot on. I also liked your video about Houston. Your videos are fun to watch.
Hey dude...you missed the 100 reasons why TO move to Texas
I hope this video isn't made. If someone doesn't already know how badass Texas is they don't need to come here
@@macid5599 correct
I think they need to make more dont come to texas videos so we dont get any more gun steeling money sharing liberals
Don't tell anyone why to move to Texas. Enough folks already.
Shhh 🤫 we do NOT need anymore non-conservative people 🙄
"If I owned Hell and Texas, I'd rent out Texas and live in Hell." -William Tecumseh Sherman
DAMM you must be from California 😆
@@tommywieringo6640 Uhhh, nope. Lots of people know Texas is terrible.
@@JKiler1 there is a lot of states that is terrible it's what you make of it.
Considering who said it, most Texans consider that a point of pride.
@@JKiler1 Ok, stay out of Texas then
I am a Texan who happens to agree with everything you said. I don’t have a gun however never will. But everything that you said was pretty spot on! And yes, I love my state and if asked, I’ll let you know why!!
Texas is the BEST state, family 🤘🏽😎😎😎😎
Christian Aldana not even close. I've lived all over the country. And Texas is on the bottom of the list.
Sonny Leger no one cares.
Sonny Leger you probably lived in a shitty part cause you couldn’t afford something good lol
Chris 57383 actually every part I've been to in Texas is shitty. I can afford plenty. I can assure you, I probably earn double what you make. When you have been to the places I've been. You have a higher standard. And Tex-ass doesn't meet that high standard. You should travel more.
@@SwampSquatch70 where are in best places front your experience
If you come here, leave your Californication BS behind!
Really? are you that stupid?
@@mikevale1000 are you?
Nice picture, is that you r parent's basement?
Were leaving because of the bullshit... Dipshit
LA Cali is full of crazy liberal pedophiles.... Stay out of Cali, so many unconstitutional laws there
Nice!! And it is the truth!
I reside in Central Texas. One thing I’ve not figured out is WHY is the majority of the people in the County jail Military? In Bell County Jail. It baffles me
I love in Houston tx my whole life and we do most of the time has cowgirl hats and boots . My family we used to it riding horses and stuff.
As a native Texan who's lived here his whole life and never owned boots or a cowboy hat I can tell you from personal experience, it is impossible to avoid at least knowing someone who has both of those.
He said western Texas
Right here baby!!!
As a non-native who lived in Texas for 13 years, I agree 100% with all of these. IMO it is definitely one of those states that either suits your character perfectly, or it makes you feel like a social outcast.
As someone born in Texas, I'm a social outcast. I couldn't agree with you more.
I agree
Uncle Briggs! I’m a Texan and I love those tattoos !
the heat one, it is bad but not that bad
especially during winter, it feels good
this is coming from a guy in texas
As usual you did your research. I’ve lived in DFW all my life and I’ve heard all your reasons from new comers at one point or another, especially how crazy and reckless our drivers are! Good video as you give people an honest fact driven picture of our great state.
What the goddamned hell is so great about your flat, featureless, hot, humid shithole of a state?
Robert Preskop I mean he covered why people move here, watch the video.
I drive arount a thousand miles a week for my job and drivers are pretty good here. I have seen worse, like on the East coast and LA California. For the number of drivers on the road wrecks are not that many and most people are curtious.
John D I’ve only driven in California a couple of times and it was in San Diego and it was fine. I think Urban areas generally have more aggressive/riskier driver no matter the state. Houston drivers to me are super aggressive.
Texas has more cops s and highway patrol then any State I have been to or lived in. I see more cops in a day then I would see in a month any were else. I drive about a thousand miles per week and see about 20 to 30 law enforcement per day out patrolling. When driving in Texas just obey the laws and let the aggressive drivers do there thing and you will be fine. I never let other drivers effect my driving.
I have a hat, I have boots, I have guns, all we have is trucks lol, we are Conservatives, we are Christians, I love the desert, lizards, snakes and critters. Heat is good. I hate cold and snow.

Wallace Raymond What the heck is your problem?
Catalyst - D B @wallace Raymond he’s just mad because that’s where he’s going. He’s lonely. Lol. Thank you for that though!!
Catalyst - D B I’m Texas born and raised. It’s not that bad
1MSally1965 Of course ☺️You’re very welcome
You can be anywhere in the world and tell someone you are from Texas and they will know where that is!
I'm mexican, I live in matamoros, the border with Brownsville and I hate how proudness turns into nationalism really quickly
