[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curious, OP. "why so many people are moving away. " -- if people move away because there are so many "migrants", then why is TX the fastest growing state in the country? Why do so many real Americans move to TX even as they are being flooded with "migrants", and there is purportedly open borders there? There's some dichotomy there.[/quote] Population growth is good and it’s good to live somewhere the population is growing. Without these TX migrants, DC would be in real trouble like other blue states and particularly “superstar cities” that have seem population declines starting a few years ago that accelerated with COVID. Why DC refuses to embrace it, I don’t know but suspect that accepting these migrants runs contrary to their economic development strategy of creating a rich enclave. [/quote] Which "blue city" is in trouble, and what kind of trouble, due to population declining? Bay Area housing prices is still leagues above anywhere in TX, FL or DC. But, as stated earlier, most of those migrants have friends/relatives elsewhere. That's where they are headed. Some will stay in DC. But TX still has way more illegal immigrant population per capita than DC, and yet, real Americans still seem to be flocking to TX. So, it appears that TX is still doing well with all them illegals and an open border.[/quote]
