Austin, Dallas, Houston, Washington DC, Denver, and some southern cities. Out of all the people I graduated high school with about half a decade ago I would say maybe 20-30% currently live in San Antonio.

Obviously Austin isn't bigger but it has way more young people so most young people would rather live there.

Obviously it is different depending on what high school you went to. Some high schools are mostly people that never left town.

Lots of growth in San Antonio is from military, people from other states moving here, retirees, and maybe the biggest growth is from people from south Texas moving here. A lot of people that grow up near the border or in rural south Texas have the life goal to move to San Antonio, and often do.

PS. San Antonio is only the 7th biggest city because of annexation. Atlanta metro is way bigger than San Antonio yet Atlanta as a city is what, a quarter the size of San Antonio population wise? You should look at metro size, not city size.

You're gonna love it, and the "progress" it brings your community.
The neighbors you'll never know, but will always know they are there, and really proud of their accomplishment.

They really expect you to be enamored with them. Gag a maggot.

Nowadays if any Texans are moving to Montana it is so they can avoid the so called progress.

Montana doesn't have that many people. I think most large cities in Texas have a greater population than Montana. A very few Texan's moving to Montana may seem significant to the state, but would be not be noticed in Texas.

It's complicated, but it needs to turn purple first. With gerrymandering, the state TX leg will remain red for a long time. When it comes to statewide and national elections, it's closer but still red by about 5‰ if I recall the last Cruz/O'Rouke senate run.

It may be as much about general development (bigger metro areas, more traffic on the highways, etc.) as politics.
