[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in California and have a lot of friends from HS whose relatives moved to California during WW2 from the Midwest. Lots of them have moved to places like Texas, Tennessee, and other low/no-tax states in the past 5 years as the current generation can't afford housing and they are also politically conservative. In short, if you're working or middle class, it's at-best a wash. At worst, you've lost money by moving to Texas or Tennessee. The services are worse. Property and ad valorem taxes are higher. Fees for anything involving the local government. The fact of the matter is that a place like California does have a lot of good services for working and middle class families, public transport, lots of public works jobs, etc. California is always building some new massive infrastructure and there's lot of well-paying, union jobs to support those projects. Great benefits. The only ones benefiting off no-tax states are the wealthy.[/quote]
