So, you want to move to Texas, and are wondering what to do next. Do you know what part of the state you want to live in? Are there cities you’re interested in? Texas is a distinctive state, but its cities have their own flavor, too. And there are features all over the state that attract new residents.

Most people moving to Texas move to one of its big cities:

San Antonio

Famous for the Alamo, and the River Walk, a city park and a special pedestrian street. It not only features a variety of stores and beautiful sites, but it connects to a number of historical sites as well. During Fiesta San Antonio every spring, colorfully decorated boats float down the river.

Austin

The capital of Texas and a hip arts town, Austin is considered “the live music capital of the world.” The city features the Colorado River and several lakes, great for water sports. The University of Texas at Austin is one of the largest colleges in the country, with seven museums and seventeen libraries. Austin is also home to a vibrant economy and several Fortune 500 companies.

Houston

Houston is the largest city in the south. Its proximity to Galveston Bay and the Gulf of Mexico means access to seafood, beaches and boating. Houston has several major sports teams, including the Astros, the Rockets, and the Texans.

Dallas

Dallas is the northern-most of Texas’s four largest cities. It’s home to several major sports teams including the Cowboys, Stars, Mavericks and Rangers. The Dallas Fort Worth metroplex was the fastest growing metro area in 2016, and is home to 22 Fortune 500 companies.

Climate

Texas is hot, y’all. But so beautiful, and with so much to do outdoors, you’ll barely notice. Northerners move here for the mild winters.

Driving

We’ve got some public transit in the big cities (and it’s getting better) but Texans love their cars and trucks. And with so many people moving to Texas to work, traffic can be a bit heavy. On the bright side, Texans are widely known as nice drivers.

Economy

One thing attracting people to Texas is a booming economy, and low-tax environment that’s business-friendly. Texas is known for its energy production, but it’s earned respect for medical and technology hubs as well.
