NEARLY 156 PEOPLE LEAVE CHICAGO DAILY: DEMOGRAPHIC TRENDS.

Even migration is bigger in Texas. Dallas leads all U.S. cities as the largest net gainer with 246 people arriving daily, according to a Bloomberg analysis of 2017 Census data on migration to the 100 largest U.S. metropolitan areas. In 2014, the crown belonged to Houston with 269 migrants per day.

Two things: First, as Austin said yesterday, to anyone thinking of fleeing to Texas, “please stay away. It’s absolutely terrible down here. We have hurricanes and tornadoes and sweltering summers and gazillions of feral hogs. The worst of it: increasingly terrible traffic thanks to tax migrants fleeing California.”

I’ve been telling people the exact same thing after I left California in 2016! And second, billionaire GOP contributors and libertarian-types like the Koch Brothers really need to get going on Glenn’s Welcome Wagon idea for new arrivals who fail to heed the warnings of us veteran Texans.
