The Texas Regret: Why 500,000 People Just Moved Out

The "Texas Miracle" is showing cracks. Is the dream over? For years, we were told to "move to Texas" for freedom, low taxes, and big houses. But a new trend is emerging: The Great Reversal. Recent data shows that 1 in 5 recent transplants are regretting their move, and U-Hauls are starting to head North again.

In this documentary, we investigate the hidden costs that realtors won't tell you about. From property taxes that rival New York to an insurance crisis that is doubling monthly payments, we uncover why the "low cost of living" in Texas is becoming a myth.

In this video, we cover:

The Property Tax Trap: Why "No Income Tax" is misleading.

The Insurance Crisis: How weather is making homes uninsurable.

Buyer’s Remorse: Why transplants from California and New York are moving back.

Infrastructure Failure: The traffic, the grid, and the heat.

The Future: Will the Texas housing market crash as people leave?
