Report: Californians Leaving for Texas So Rapidly, U-Haul Ran Out of Trucks
Breitbart ^ | 01/08/2022 | Amy Furr

A recent report from U-Haul revealed migration to southern states has continued and Texas was the top destination for those moving.

“California and Illinois ranked as the states with the greatest one-way net loss of U-Haul trucks, and most of that traffic appears to have gone to Texas and Florida,” Fox Business reported on Friday.

I think the real problem with Austin is the huge number of colleges and universities based there.

I would like to point out that Texas has outrageous property taxes, and if you are retired, it is no tax haven, or heaven, or anything else but an expensive place to live.

You have so many young people who rent, and think they don’t pay any property taxes so it doesn’t matter. If their landlords would split out property taxes from their rent so they could see what they’re really paying that would help.

They’re like nomadic American Indians moving on from one camp ground to another after they’ve exhausted all the resources.

ALL were NOT 'exhausted'.

The land will have recuperated by the time they come by that way again.

I wonder if Governors can ban people from their state. I remember Cuomo of NY was pushing this “No Trump supporters in NY” stuff. Well if that’s possible, then how about DeSantis of Florida ban out of state Democrats? They all seem to be heading there, AOC and Pelosi who supposedly bought a house there. She destroyed San Fran, force her to live there.

They were exhausted in the sense they couldn’t stay there and had somewhere else to go. The sheer mass of land it took to support this is almost unimaginable. This is not so in this country anymore.

I heard on the radio that some movie production studio just purchased hundreds of acres near Round Rock (north of Austin). They plan to move their whole operation to Texas.

I doubt it was that much fraud. So long as it has the Bay Area, LA, and other hives, Cali is and will remain a hard-left liberal state.

Agreed. I personally know people in Cali that vote against their conscience...against what they know (and they'll admit) is the right thing to do...and they vote blue. I so dont understand Liberal Logic.

They’re and they are looking for more water because there is none in California and they can’t buy it or steal it from Texas and send there and they have even started to Buy existing Texas Water Treatment Plants and the water rights with the Water Treatment Plants. I know this to be a fact because that’s exactly what happened at Canyon Lake Water Supply. The first things that they did was change the name to Canyon Lake Water Systems so they didn’t have to repaint the Logos on Elevated Storage, Clearwell Tanks and other physical assets.

Then they replaced the Local Texas office staff with kookafornicators Highly Ridicules Staff that were imported. Next the Water Treatment Plant Operators (I was one of 4 crapped on) with kookafornicator Operators.

The ones that move to Texas are gonna try and grow golf courses for yards in the Hill Country and that don’t work. That’s why God put mesquite, juniper (they aren’t cedar trees) cacti, scrub brush and rocks in the Hill Country.

coming to become Texans

Beg pardon Mam but one does not go to Texas to “become a Texan”

I moved to Texas back in 1969 when Dad was transferred to Houston as the Intergalactic Airport Houston (IAH or what is now called bush international) was bringing Terminals A & B online for service. And there are now what ?, 5 or 6? I lived in Texas 40 years. I started out as a Yankee at 8 years old. After 40 years of living in Texas I had only been promoted to DAMNED YANKEE !!! (because I stayed that long and didn’t go back to “New Joyzie”)

To be a Texan one MUST be born to a Couple of Blood Texans that has Family that goes back at least 3 Generations.

I have kept My Texas Drivers License just incase I ever need to get back in if Texas Succeeds from the USA. 🤠

Fat chance. They will buy up land above market price and raise taxes on Texans.

Example, some of this scum bought some land at 12-14k when the appraised value was 2.5k.

So all the land used for ranching and farming appraised value has now jumped to 10.5k. I am trying to sale 15 acres. Big oaks and stock tank. Realator has priced it at 15k. Crazy. I was thinking 7.5k/acre

I live a few miles off of I70 in Indiana.

I see all kinds of states represented on the road.

I so dont understand Liberal Logic.

That's because it is listed in the group of things like

Military Intelligence
Jumbo Shrimp
Deafening silence
Cruel kindness
...
