My brother-in-law and nephew left Texas about 4 weeks ago to go to Florida in their travel trailer to be Insurance Adjusters.... they are having to stay in Walmart parking lots...... but they say the people are great in FL, almost as good as us West Texans. ;)
I have friends who've gone to La. on promises of federal contracts in roofing that pay $8k per month. I understand the housing is close to half that $.
