You couldn't pay me to live in Texas (I lived there for four years, the longest decade of my life).

Sounds like some Texas green envy. All we need to do to make things better here is get rid of Governot Rick Perry and his maerry band of thieves.

But if you do come to visit, welcome!
Please spend LOTS of money, make some friends then go home and take some of your new freinds with you
If all the non-natives left more than half the population would be gone.

I'd miss my DW. Born in Adrian Michigan. Sorry dear.....

Glad to hear some folks love AZ

Lived in Phoenix back in the 70's and it was wonderful and I am a native Californian who lived in SoCal in the 50's and 60's, also wonderful. Lived in TX in the 80's, 90's also wonderful. Now living in TN (retired) and also wonderful. I must assume that it may be just me but why is it everywhere I live the area is wonderful?

No Muddy not drugs but you are right about attitude. I am always amused by folks who move to a new area then sit around for years complaining about it. If you look for it you can find nice things about any area. Folks who do not like Texas for example must have ignored the open friendly way Texans greet strangers, California for it's beauty and diverse geography, Arizona for it's hmmm, Arizona for it's..... well, the winters are nice.

We have the same problem in Florida, especially central and south Florida.

When I run for President, I am going to cancel all taxes on MH Sales. That way I cannot spend the money that I don't have to really spend. Mark off one tax on your list. Michigan-look out, I'll stomp the bill to take taxes on retiree checks. You earned that money, politicians didn't.

Of course, then they won't have anything to complain about.

I'm currently in Florida, and it is a great state for retirees. But I also have property in eastern Tennessee, and the Florida sticks and bricks is on the market. Tncruiser, we'll just keep the Tennessee thing to ourselves!

I agree. We moved from TX to TN because we wanted to get away from the high property taxes in TX. Now we have the best of all worlds, no income tax, low property taxes and much better weather (if you like milder summers) than TX.
