Filled moving vans are leaving California for Texas but quite a few are empty on the return trip

It's happening in northern Idaho as well. If you manage to sell a two-bedroom bungalow in LA for $750,000 and bring that money up north it's feeding frenzy time. A house next door to me has changed hands four times in a decade, each to an out-of-stater with some rather odd illusions. One feller from San Diego put his new Escalade in a ditch at the first snow and never came back. He located his generator in a little hollow so it would be less unsightly, and it disappeared in November, not to be seen again until spring. Fortunately the now-empty house didn't need it. Another nice feller from Texas who probably should have known better, indulged his California wife's distaste for the winter up here by moving...wait for it...to a nice house on the western slope of the Rockies in Colorado. This is the Mojave desert compared to that.

The local realtors all have "busted dreams" sales. Some pretty good deals...what am I saying? They're horrible. Awful places. You wouldn't want to live there...

Raising the minimum wage will make this worse.

There’s a word for the emigrating from Calif., Ill, NY, NJ, Mass. to Southern States.
It’s...Metastasizing

They’ve been moving to the Lone Star State and turning it into the New Kaliforia for years. I absolutely hate it.

...and Mexico is moving to both states.

Maybe they will all end up in Austin and make it even weirder!
