The three big cities in Texas are blue: Austin, Dallas, Houston. The suburbs are red, so Plano/Richardson for Dallas, Woodlands/Sugarland for Houston.

Austin needs to be nuked.

El Paso is a liberal dump in a New Mexico sort of way, as I should know, being a New Mexican.

San Antonio is liberal, but in a Hispanic sort of way with good surrounding towns.

For a city of any size that is conservative, it would be Ft. Worth, then Midland, then Abiliene (the last two being smallish, but rich).

The economy is fine (about 5% unemployment) in Midland.

You will get about 500% more house in Texas (anywhere but Austin or University Park/Highland Park in Dallas or River Oaks in Houston) than Chicago.

Dude, what you said. I got a house inside the loop in Ho-town for the price of a parking spot in my native N. CA.

Hunh? Maybe the city council, but the population is generally conservative, with lots of active and retired (and reserve and Guard) military. It’s a great place if you can stay away from retaining walls.
