A majority of ppl does not choose where to born and moving is expensive

They found work in the state and the state has a lower cost of living. The reverse is actually why a fair number of people were moving out of other states.

Texas has some really unique qualities that make it attractive. The economics, resources, and location make it stand out.
-massive amounts of cheap, easily developed land.
-high availability of cheap energy (fossil fuels, but also a leader in solar and wind generation).
-no income tax, and cheaper taxes for businesses.
-it’s a financial hub and a manufacturing powerhouse.
-large tech sector
-easy access to the United States-Mexico trade. (this is important as the us moves away from Chinese manufacturing).
-easily taps into cheaper Mexican labor

I’m not a fan of the politics of the state, but it’s probably the best positioned state moving forward. The politics can be fixed. A couple of the points I made could be argued one way or another, but even a couple of them make Texas bound for success.

It's cheap.
