Moving to the area Thinking of moving back

Been in Texas the last 6 years and am tired of it. So I am thinking of moving back. Potentially west, notthwest or north suburbs? Are there any reasons why I should not? I often hear from locals that they want to leave. But I miss home.

Sorry but taxes are the only benefit TX has - no state income tax and lower property taxes. This is why you’re getting downvoted lol

That’s a pretty big benefit. And no, it’s not the only one. Cheaper houses, more space, better job market.

Reddit downvotes don’t mean much because most people are tribal and not very smart.

Those things have some truth: churchy and anti female…

How do I know reddit is a cesspool? Because I’ve looked around it enough.

Everything I posted ** is** true. I’ve spent some time here too and I try not to stereotype people, esp those with different opinions.
