I have visited Tyler a few times over the years (I live just south DFW) and the town just gave off a weird vibe. It would take some more time there to figure it out.
Ronnie, as always thumbs up for your videos! It's interesting that you mentioned that a lot of people are moving here from California, Illinois, Colorado and Washington State Is that really a good thing? From my personal experiences, I've worked with people who moved from California and Illinois (mostly Chicago). These same people actually admitted to the fact that Texas is a great place to "invest" in a home. The problem with that is because these transplants are used to paying an outrageous sum for housing, when it comes to making a bid, they naturally bid high. Their benchmark isn't the same as ours. The fair market value for an affordable home is going in a bad direction. This change might seem to be an advantage for the real estate agent and seller, but that behaviour also causes the market to be driven up. And unfortunately for the person who has their roots in Texas and s not a transplant, we are all paying dearly for that same behaviour. Unfortunately, most people who live in Texas (and especially Tyler) cannot afford any of this. Our benchmark for the "fair" cost of a home isn't the same as someone from California or Illinois. Maybe that is one of the reasons why our home prices (and property taxes) have been getting out of reach for the typical home-grown Texan? Compared to what these transplants are used to when they liven in their previous state, purchasing a home in Texas (and especially Tyler), they are getting a bargain. But, what about hard working folks who already live in Texas and who have lived here all their lives? Because someone from out-of-state has no trouble in bidding high for a home in Texas, the market will respond to that "bump-up" accordingly. I realize that we live in a free-market and economics depends on people who are willing to pay for a good or service, at the cost or price that they are willing pay. But is it really a good thing? It isn't good for the home-grown Texan. I'm not suggesting to ban out-of-staters, but in all fairness, their willingness to drive up the real estate market isn't good or fair for any Texan. My concern is that Tyler's real estate market will turn into what happened in Austin. What about Austin? In the past 15 years many people moved from California, to Austin, Texas. These people pretty much forced the housing market to go in a bad direction. And that's what I see is happening all around Texas and from this video, it seems to be happening in Tyler as well. My concern is that, at least when it concerns the cost of houses, Tyler might just someday turn into another Austin. This very much concerns me, as it should concern all Texans. Texans are friendly, probably the most friendly and welcoming people anyone could know. We Texans welcome all people with opened arms. It is my hope that those who wish to move here accept what we are all about and help keep this Great State an affordable and Friendly place to live. One last thing...As Ronnie eluded to please drive friendly, safely and courteously!
A big disclaimer is there are nooooo jobs none zero. They don't have enough. I don't even know how people get by let alone survive in east texas. They need to change that. At the grocery store or the fast food places, they pay 9 to 11 an hour. When that is part time you get 200 to 300 dollars each week which is still wayyy to unaffordable to buy or rent a home, buy a car, go on dates, care for a family, extra. They don't provide power generators for power outages and the life for everybody is extremely slow paced. If you beg and ask for a job, your likely not going to get it because people just struggle to get people jobs. Though this is Pittsburg, Texas not Tyler or Longview but it remains the same for all of east texas. All the girls in east texas are like a 1.
❤Driving is not that bad Only traffic during holidays seasons. Easy and pleasant place to raise a family. Definitely growing. Definitely less expensive than other places and it offers more quality for the price. Conservative mindset overall. Nice people and education is mostly very good.❤
@@livingintylertexas the drivers are awful here, there’s no state tax so your paychecks are higher, the food here is awful, there’s a big mix of stuck up snobby people and country folk, but it’s hard to find down to earth people and make friends, there’s way less theft here and Cali has way more homeless people, you can’t even go to a gas station without 3 people coming up to you and begging in Cali, everybody knows everyone in this town and most people who are from here have never left, groceries are about the same and rent costs aren’t as cheap as you would expect compared to Cali Probably more but that’s off the top of My head. Oh and it doesn’t really cool off in the evenings here in the summer
@@joshuapickett9676I agree about the crazy drivers here, but it wasn’t always this way. I don’t know what happened but it all started changing around 2011-12. The lights were never synchronized well, but it got exponentially worse around that time.
@@Greymist73 yeah I’m realizing now when I wrote this I gave a lot of negative takes, there are positives too but those were just some of my frustrations
Tyler is a pretty nice little town. I lived in Shreveport, just across the line in Louisiana. I could live there. Dallas is close, the best flea market I’ve ever seen is just up I20. Plenty of fishing, hunting. Camping. They have a nice car scene if you have a custom. Austin is a great place to visit. Taxes are kind of high, especially if you own property. State wide sales tax is a scam they work on the people. It sucks the life out of everything you buy, including groceries.
Tyler isn't worth moving to because there are no jobs. It's a rural area for goodness sake! Natives leave Tyler all the time because lack of jobs!!!! And $371,000 for a house, is a lot of money for the native Tyler. The median income is only $54,000. Most earn less than that. Yet, Tyler was affordable before the outsiders moved in & greed pushed prices up.

Love the videos Emailing shortly 😊
Excellent medical facilities in Tyler. Nice golf in the area too.
I would love to Tyler in few years. The thing people talk about is traffic on south broadway ave.
It’s bad

Tyler is a place to retire
Why do you think there are no young people and everybody is a senior in east texas?
❤Driving is not that bad Only traffic during holidays seasons. Easy and pleasant place to raise a family.
Definitely growing. Definitely less expensive than other places and it offers more quality for the price. Conservative mindset overall.
Nice people and education is mostly very good.❤
Love the vid. If you ever wanna interview someone from Cali who now lives in Bullard for almost 1 year hit me up I can tell you more pros and cons. :)
Thanks very much Joshua! I may just take you up on that offer. What’s the biggest difference between here and Cali to you?

Oh and everything closes super early, there’s very little nightlife

No state income taxes. Nice.
I ended up sending this video to our daughter and Son-in-law. To give them a heads up on some details.
Thank you for sharing! I hope the video helps! 😌
