    When I went to Wichita falls around 1980, I stayed in a ranch house around the corner from Sheppards Air Force Base... I do remember getting bit by a red fire ant... That bite stung my whole leg for a half hour.... You should see what happens when you put a scorpion or a black widow in a tank of red fire ants... I think it was in 1978 or 79 there was a tornado there... Do they still say that Wichita falls is part of tornado Alley? Down the road from where I was staying was a trailer park.... There was also a mall like here in Ocean County New Jersey, called Sykes center... I had my first Mr pibbs there, something like a Dr pepper..... Overall I had a good time... My sister and her fiance did quite a bit of hiking in the woods there...

    Im checking out Witchita Falls bc its absolutely beautiful and I miss living in Texas (back in NY for another year or so). I lived in League City near Houston and loved it there but dont want to go back to such a heavily populated area. My biggest concern is the tornados and potential for fires. I saw first hand what it did to Bastrop SP. Are those more rare patterns in the weather or a more regular thing?

    You might see snakes as well but, most are not venimous and they found a chance to enter your home. Many can be chased with a broom outside and they don't put up a fight; they retreat. I moved to the Austin metroplex aand happy to be moving back to the WF 'metroplex'. Now you can buy beer and wine at 10AM with the new law.

    Keep hyping up those good qualities about Wichita Falls like you're doing and you'll have so many Californians and New Yorkers moving into there it'll become another Austin - if that's what you want. When I get ready to move, I'll be looking for a nice quiet place to retire, but I'm certainly not going to move any place where I know lots of people are flocking to.

    @Eros13adios Před rokem +1

    Im researching to one day move out from L.A. somewhere between into Southern Oklahoma and Northern Texas and between a Small City and/or Medium Town with good sunny weather for the most part.
    I was born and raised near L.A. but I can't afford to live here anymore as a blue collar worker,I can't afford to buy nor rent a home and im getting tired of living in roach infested apartments and always needing a room mate to help with offsetting the monthly bills and at the end of the day, im still just a blue collar worker that makes few dollars above the minimum wage-- in that case it's better to just move out of here and where im able to afford my own place and I could find low wage jobs just about anywhere in the country.All im paying is just for nice weather most of the year with downtown and hollywood night life, mountains close by and beaches close by, but the TRAFFIC makes everything far.
    Also, this L.A. life it has become degenerate and im more Christian leaning and I want to be close sharing life with other Christian alike community.
