Don’t California My Texas
 
Relocation by Tesla’s Musk and Oracle Corp. follows 687,000 other Californians who’ve moved to Texas in last decade

https://www.seattletimes.com/busines...n-last-decade/

If you spend enough time in Texas, you’ll quickly become comfortable with phrases like “y’all,” “bless your heart” and “howdy.” But in recent years, there’s a saying that’s been almost as prevalent: “Don’t California My Texas.”

The phrase, borne of the massive migration of Californians to Texas over the last decade, captures conservative Texans’ political and economic concerns about a very real migration pattern — a trek that several high profile celebrities and business leaders joined in this year.

... Texas boasts lower taxes and a more relaxed regulatory environment than California, which is a draw for relocating companies big and small.

... U.S. Census Bureau estimates for 2020 aren’t out yet to tell whether between the states has continued during the pandemic. But at least one company that helps with those moves is out with data backing up the trend.Allied Van Lines, one of the largest moving companies in the world, released its annual report Wednesday on moving trends, and it lists Texas as the second-most-popular destination this year behind Florida.

I can remember when Portland, Me. was a cool small city with its own identity.

Then it became a suburb of Boston and NYC. When people with big bucks migrate, they expect their background luxuries to migrate with them.

All I can say is enjoy your Starbucks soy/kale/seaweed lattes, soccer and snakeskin boots. You've been assimilated. :salute:

I resemble that! No worries, I'd only move to your state to consume your senior resources to my selfish pettiness. :yeah:
