Agreed. Long story but I come from Nevada by way of Kalifornia. Bring other conservatives.fickman wrote:-[SNIP]-
Advice:
- Bring your conservative friends with you. Most of the defenders of the Alamo were from other states. If you believe in our ideals, where you came from doesn't matter, although you'll hear plenty about it at friendly backyard BBQs! lol
- Consider renting a house to learn the area before you buy.
- If you did mean IT Security, even though I'm biased to Fort Worth and hesitate to say anything good about the metromess on the other side of the airport, those jobs are most abundant in north Dallas, Plano, Frisco, and probably creeping up through Allen and towards McKinney.
- Watch out for property taxes. They're the dirty little secret nobody talks about when touting the absence of an income tax.

Good luck with your relocation!
Fickman, you are the first Native Texan that didn't tell me to, "Get the 'heck' out." Beware of moving here. Most native Texans HATE non-natives. Even if we came here because we like the way the way Texas is and have no desire to change it. The nicest thing that has ever been said to me by a native Texan was, "You are only a guest here. Act accordingly."
I live in Austin. It's not as bad as most folks make it out to be as far as gun friendly. There are tons of stupid (read: Liberal gun grabbing) folks though. Should you run into them tell them to kindly P___ Off.
If you have kids look at Round Rock to the north of Austin the schools/neighborhoods are good there. There is plenty of Tech work here if that is the type of security you are in to.
Good luck with the move.
