Its not a surprise that one fool posts about people leaving Washington but doesnt mention that more people are moving to Washington and that its growing rapidly. No one bothers to check and the rest of posters make up reasons for something that isnt happening.

I live in Texas and SW Washington and Washington is nicer, more educated and prettier than Texas. Rockport TX on the coast is one possible except as are other coastal cities. Texas gains people because its warm and has lots of jobs even if many are low-paying . It has slightly higher property tax than Washington.
And yet people continue to flood into Texas including those from the west coast. Heck, even Elon Musk moved there. I just don't get it. That is beyond politics if that's your thing, cheaper housing in some areas and certain job opportunities or business ventures. But at the end of the day when all is said in done, you're still living in TX. For some that works, apparently. I know some who moved from the PNW and seem to like it ok. It really boils down to what some want out of life and that can be found in TX depending on what that is.

Elon Musk is reportedly building his own town in Texas
