As a senior who is aging alone, I would be very interested in seeing your review of the best retirement communities for independent seniors. Perhaps tiny home communities; senior apartments or one floor villas with an attached garage. I am currently in FL, and am looking for a cooler climate, excellent healthcare and a real community vibe. Thanks so much for all your videos - very informative and fun!!
Cary nc
@@dansaber4427 Thank you so much for the suggestion! I will check out Cary, NC - I have vacationed in the Hendersonville/Ashville area and loved the scenery. NC is definitely on my list! Thanks again... 🙂
Fuquay Varina, NC is also nice. It’s about 40 minutes from Cary, NC. It is car dependent though, if that matters to you.
Asheville, NC. Lots of Floridians have retirement homes in this area. In Mills River, there is a tiny home community that is SUPER cute! Oh, forgot to mention we have all 4 seasons with very little hard winter weather.
@@Overitall23 North Carolina has world-class beaches and world-class mountains. If only they could get you there. Such a lost opportunity for the sake of cars.
Yep, San Antonio - Lackland AFB. Denver - Lowery AFB. Phoenix - Luke AFB. I called each of them home for a while. Thanks Uncle Sam.
Right on
How interesting! There’s a video or documentary exposed in your list of military bases. It appears they give cities a leg up over others.
Tampa, MacDill AFB
Why are you thanking fascism?!
I was at Lackland for the typical six week basic training, but never got to see San Antonio.
I lived in Nashville for 5 years in the 90s. When I visited in 2016 it looked like a larger version of the city I used to live in. I went back at the beginning of October and literally could not believe the exponential growth that has been happening there. It looks like an entirely different city now. I actually got lost a couple of times.
People need to start moving to Memphis. Nashville is full. Why is Memphis dying while Nashville is in overgrowth? The crime in Nashville is becoming more like Memphis every year.
@@larrys4618I wish Memphis could make a comeback. It feels like with the existing built buildings there(like if more buildings were remodeled, and the Pyramid arena was remodeled into Bass Pro), and more investment, it wouldn't take much to get Memphis going again. And it has some interesting older areas, like Overton Park.
Lived in Middle Tennessee a long time, I wouldnt even go into Nashville anymore!
@robertwiles8106: I agree about Nashville. My first trip there was back in 1995 and I’ve visited several times since. I went back after a long absence in 2022 and I was really shocked at how much it had grown.
Moved away in 2018 and when I visit… it’s not the same city. The homes are overpriced also. Match the pay so people can afford homes!
Austin is the cool kid everyone wants to hang with... and then you finally get to hang with them and then think to yourself.. this person's got serious mental health issues.. what in the world was I thinking!?
LOL, Dan! I’ve never heard it put that way, but you nailed it!
😂
When I lived in Austin way back in the 70s it was very laidback and rather slow. Willie Nelson was just getting started. I remember fondly the lady on local TV advertising for a mom and pop apparel store called "Griffin's Western Wear" where I ended up buying some cowboy boots. Traffic was not bad, and prices were reasonable. That all changed when city leaders chose to try to entice tech companies to move to Austin. So Austin was thus >>> discovered. The result has been disastrous, and I wouldn't think of moving back there now. I have found a place to live in Texas that is terrific and, so far, has not been ... discovered ... by tech companies or any other big corporations.
You say this yet no one is leaving.
@@tyreek.6815 Because all the people with mental issues are moving in.
Seriously though Texas is full and closed dont move to Texas the heat will vaporize you
Yeah, I can't take it anymore. Leaving next spring.
Some people overhere in Chicago saying they rather vaporize in Texas than Freeze overhere. I don't know which I would rather take, they are both bad
Moved here in April w ky fiancé. I will be moving back to Mid West. Texas has no culture, heat, bugs it’s awful here.
NC is also closed until further notice 👍
Naaaaah son, im trying to get there REAL soon, either NC, VA or OH, its still more affordable than ANY and i mean ANY city in Florida that has decent jobs. Charlottes kinda too pricey now though.@@_frivolousteddy_5924
I liked living near Tampa for a few years. The Cuban food is to die for

Too much crime in Tampa metro

Well, you finally mentioned Raleigh. It is a nice place to live. I was glad to move here 28 years ago. Has gotten more crowded and expensive but not excessive. Lots of small towns that have become bedroom communities, but even they are getting expensive and crowded. Thanks.
I haven't gotten that far. I expected to see Charlotte on the list. I'm sad to see Raleigh. I grew up in SC and am moving back east and Raleigh is one of the spots we're checking out.
Raleigh is a very nice place to live. I just don’t appreciate what used to take me 15 minutes now takes me almost 45 now because of the fast population growth. Now I have to apply for my kids to go to the school that we live 2 miles from because schools are capped
I imagine people who are unfamiliar with Raleigh see that the city "only" has a population of around 470k and think it is a "small" city. This is only because the LAND AREA of the city is relatively small. There are numerous other large towns located right NEXT to Raleigh within the same county as Raleigh -- including Cary, Apex, Morrisville, Garner. Wake County (that includes Raleigh and these other very large towns) has a population of 1.15 million, which is larger than Mecklenburg County where Charlotte is located. If they defined the "Raleigh Metro" as including the ~7-8 counties surrounding Raleigh (as they do the "Charlotte Metro"), then the Raleigh area is actually just as populated as the Charlotte area.
@@northwolf every city has suburbs. Charlotte metro population is way higher than RDU metro area. You’re just plain wrong.
I live in Raleigh and Raleigh is very small. I’m from Nashville and Nashville is very similar to cities like Austin and Charlotte.
Texas, North Carolina, Florida, and Tennessee. Got it. Oh yeah, and Denver - but that's more of an honorable mention to squeeze in an extra state....
Utah is awesome. Surprised it wasn't on list. Booming like crazy
Denver will be a little slower in comparison, but it has to be said that it is also developing. Do you think Denver can be compared with states such as Florida?
Salt Lake is great.@@vinnie8495
Maybe the reason Raleigh North Carolina is doing so well is because of the oak trees. The trees are giving off energy and the citizens are consuming it. It's the spreading of positive energy. It's the connection of man and nature.
They don't call it the City of Oaks for nothing! 😊
They keep building and knocking the beautiful trees down we won’t have anything but arrogant people and traffic like the other big cities 🥺
Raleigh is a beautiful city.
what ever flake
More people means mores more and more land will be destroyed to accommodate newcomers for housing and businesses. You do realize you're contributing to the destruction of those trees, right?
Definitely do a video on retirement communities. We are approaching that season of life and have no idea where to move to 🤷🏼♀️
If you have the money, Phoenix and the surrounding areas are lovely. I just moved here and I LOVE it.
Close to the grand babies of course!
@@JasmineNothanksso if Phoenix itself gets to 2,000,000 by 2030, then the area will have over 6 million people by that time? Amazing growth!! 😮
@@JasmineNothanksomg… the JUNIPER allergies killed Anywhere in Arizona for ME. Don’t forget the Scorpions.
No. No. Noooooooo
@@donnamcfarland162 the scorpions seem to mind their own business and want nothing to do with humans. But I get the allergies, they can be problematic. Good luck in your journey!
I’d kinda like to see a video about the best walkable cities. Think it’d be cool.
Same!
i hate walking i just turned 18 and i either walk or uber but im tired of this i need a car!!!! asap
NYC is #1. I live here!
@@iamYazeeddyou hate it because US pedestrian infrastructure is abysmal. If transit had more coverage and frequency, and cycling routes were safer, and if we abolished parking minimums allowing for more density and mixed use I’m sure you would find it to be a really pleasant environment over giant parking lots and stroads everywhere.
I live in #2. Car insurance is actually fairly cheap all over North Carolina. It has a lot in common with Charlotte with the weather & business climate. Like Atlanta, Raleigh is in a tree canopy. It's very family friendly, easy to travel from, and the cost of living is going up, but it's nowhere like some of these other US cities that are out of reach for the typical working man. I hope to continue to live in Raleigh for the next 16-20 years.
I’m originally from Raleigh also, it’s nuts the growth it has
Visited Raleigh recently. Like it very much
I live in Durham, now that is a transformation! Also getting way too expensive
Briggs, thank you for all the pertinent information! You do a great job!
Thank you
@@WorldAccordingToBriggsI’ll be moving from Ottawa Ontario Canada to league city Texas .!! I’m fed up with the high taxes and far left government .!! Just gotta sell my properties and hopefully my tile install business will be okay in Texas .!! I prefer new home installs .!! Wish me luck ..!!! P.s thanks for everything you do .!!!
I have lived in League City, Texas for nearly a year now and I love it! Good luck with your move.@@legacyturbo8485
People that live in TN are really not happy with the large growth and the rising housing prices in their state in general. I was considering moving to Nashville from a state on the East Coast and given the prices of housing, I am now priced out of the market. However, I also hear that the Nashville housing bubble is about to burst.
Why, expanding supply?
I wouldn't bank on that. I live 20 oh wait.. Now 45 minutes from Nashville since this stupid boom 🤦♀️and houses are still selling in just a few days. The house nextdoor to me sold in two days and it sold for a lot more then we thought it would. With all the new industry it's not going to slow much at all. There is just too much growth in this sounding area that will keep it going. My city alone has several years worth of development that hasn't even broken ground. It's way nuts here and going to get worse.
@@tombraiderstrums09Tennessean here. The houses are simply getting so expensive that people won't be able to afford them. Even if they're from states with higher cost of living. Nashville houses are currently priced the same as Orlando. Million dollar houses are becoming common.
It's also starting to bust at the seams. Infrastructure can't keep up. I went there to the airport last week. Traffic is a nightmare.
@@bestyoutubechannelever3206 I visited Nashville in April and was talking w a waitress about that. Rents in Nashville are almost as high as Sacramento CA, where I live. Except that minimum wage in CA is $15/hr and in TN it’s the federal minimum. And Nashville is WAY more tourism-dependent than Sac is. That math doesn’t math
I live about 30 miles outside of Nashville. Homes are still affordable if you are willing to commute.
Yes Briggs! Do the retirment communities!! it's a great idea!!!! Love your channel
Austin is also one of the nerdiest cities in the country. There's several comic book, vintage toy stores, videogame lounges, and anine clubs & conventions here. Oh I almost forgot about the yearly Rennasaince festival!
Sounds like Huntsville, AL.
and the genre film festivals!
@@user-hp1ou3nb7tI heard the job market is good there
With all that and the tech scene i hope one day it has its own 'Akihabara'
I need to be there.
I can’t believe he said the housing costs in Austin are reasonable 😵💫. And the homeless situation there is really beginning to get out of hand
Austin was awesome back in the 80's -90's. I left in 2000. Traffic is horrible, and now it is extremely expensive to reside there. What was once occupied by a lot of trees has become a concrete jungle. The homeless population is a huge factor, and graffiti seems to be growing. I actually moved from Austin to Houston and liked it better, but now I enjoy no traffic in my small under 2000 population town.
Its not terrible, go look at home prices in south florida... look in fort lauderdale and miami
Austin expensive but there's jobs
@@goonn337exactly. There’s many opportunities. There’s no excuse not to make a come up in Austin. And this is coming from someone who was homeless in Austin for 6 months
Last I heard Austin proper has stalled in growth. Only adding in the suburb cities. Hence Austin being passed by Ft. Worth in city population
Your videos are indispensible. Very well done and informative.
Moved to Raleigh last year, it is growing alright. Gonna get priced out eventually lol
I knew Raleigh NC was going to be on this list. I’m reminded how popular it is every time I want to drive to the stores. 😒
Why do you live in Raleigh?
Austin also had a major spike growth in 2020 when everyone was moving from San Francisco's Silicon Valley due to the WFH phase - 3 years later and that migration is still happening today and so many people have moved that the SV migration has been pouring from Austin into Dallas, San Antonio and Houston as well. Dallas and San Antonio's population increase is definitely valid as many of people from those cities even moved to Houston due to the cost of increase housing from people moving from California, and even that small migration of people moving has affected Houston's real estate prices and increased the crime rates as well.
a lot of factual correlations made! awesome video! 💯
I know several people who departed Cali for
Texas…but, moved back to California. I don’t get why Texas has an allure.
@@ladesigner8764 Glad to hear that. Now spread the word with your Cali friends so they stay in California.
@@stischer47 There was a recent survey that asked Californians if they could live in another state. Two-thirds said no. So buck up.
❤ to you and yours Briggs, and hope you all have a blessed Thanksgiving. Please do the retirement communities video, and how about one on tiny home parks? A lot of retirees downsize into tiny homes. Just a suggestion 🎉
Lived in Tampa & Dallas metro areas for the last 17 yrs... I'm tired of big cities. I got a remote job just so I can work from home. Currently scoping out some potential new hometowns in eastern or central time zones, NOT in a hot and/or flat place. I don't mind snow.
Hope you the best 👍
Have you lived in a cold weather climate before? I’m several areas you get a plethora of days of subzero temperatures. Unlike in warm climates where you can generally get out and do something in the mornings and evenings, you are stuck inside all day and night in those kinds of cold temperatures
You might want to look at Utah. Plenty of sunshine, gets snow, plus 3rd safest state. Draper/Sandy areas are awesome
The issue with living in cities like Tampa and Dallas is that you don't get many of the benefits big cities like New York, Chicago have. Particularly, a strong public transit network, walk-ability, and bike-ability. If even living in a city you have to keep driving from place to place, it will become tiring at some point, especially with increasing population or traffic.
Have you lived in areas that get snow? I love my town, and the 4 seasons, but Winters can sometimes get bad. Mostly moderate snowfall for average Winters. Really think about it first... I do love that my state is tax friendly for retirees. Population 275,000. 😊 Personally the Eastern states are way too crowded for my liking. Check out a population map of the U.S and you would be shocked. As well as the number of interstates in more populated areas. No thanks. 😉 Texas has super high property taxes too. You can get your home paid off, but those taxes will stay with you... 😮 My town has a great transit system and tons of nice parks, school, outdoor activity and hospitals, entertainment arenas, etc. And a major airport nearby. Yup I love it. Unfortunately other people love it too so we are growing like crazy! 😮
I really appreciate your videos. I take your info to heart and follow through with my own research on the areas you’ve mentioned that peek my interest. I now have a request on a topic I haven’t seen just yet. Please could you do ‘The Best/Worst School District’ this including both elementary, high school, and the popular gentrifying iconic “college towns”. Thank you just for reading this and all the hard extremely helpful work you do. You ease my stress so much!
I appreciate that!
Ooo worst school districts? That's gonna feature some place in my state I bet! Seconded!
😂I thought only Asian parents love that “school district” topic
@@yeetian2774 Oh no, plenty of other sorts do (jewish here, raised carpooling with Asian kids to school)
@@aick As a Jew, I always find it funny that East Asians and us seem to the only ones that truly care about school districts lollll
I live in Phoenix and before that Charlotte. Both are great cities!
Good idea about retirement areas. The Villages is a comedy goldmine.
never a dull headline coming out of there
And the colorful loofahs on their cars
@@trebors386just make sure you get the right color so people know what your into.
I actually Googled "Moose Knuckle, Arkansas" LOL. That was a good one Briggs.
San Antonio and Phoenix although summers are rough, I would consider them 2 of best non coastal cities there are.
Have lived in both and i must say i personally like phoenix a bit more. Although Californians are slowly converting it into LosAngeles 2.0. If taxes begin to sky rocket, traffic and crime get out of hand then i might consider leaving.
Phoenix is awesome
Phoenix is one of the best places for arthritis sufferers. San Diego too, but too expensive, and many people want to leave California.
Lol I live in orlando by SeaWorld you are definitely right! Lots of apartments going up too 😊
Yes. Please do a video on the best retirement places in the country. That would be awesome.
I felt the same in Dallas, back in 1985. Felt like a huge concrete slab. I was stationed in Killeen, TX. Being from Northern California (lots of foothills, mtns, and even flatlands with trees) Dallas was hot as hell. Don't know if hell is flat, if it is, Dallas may be relative.
Thanks for another great video Briggs. Lots of good information. But I must correct you ... I live in Moose Knuckle, Arkansas and its not a junkyard, its a reclamation center. OK, I really live in Southern California but I was too embarrassed to say so.
🤣
People saying stuff like "my state is full, we're closed and crowded"
Yeah, that'll keep em out 😂
I lived in Orlando for about 12 years. We enjoyed it, but there are some cons to be aware. Most importantly is the weather - I recommend spending a summer here before fully committing. Summers can be brutally hot and muggy. If you want to know what 97F with 97% humidity feels like - go to Orlando in July. I will say that, as long as you aren't into winter sports, the winters in Orlando are glorious - by far my favorite season there. So, for me, the ultimate play is to be a snow bird - go north for summers and back to Orlando for the winters.
Everything else is the same nonsense everyone complains about elsewhere - traffic, housing costs, cost of living, people suck, our state is full, etc.
For me, I have moved closer to skiing while I'm still young enough to enjoy it, then I may consider returning to Florida - if they will let me back in. LOL
I live in south Alabama and I always say you need gills to breathe.
@user-yl7mr3ck5l That's Reddit for ya - nothing but complainers. Florida, like any place, has pros and cons.
I live in Sarasota, Florida I love it!!! You could give me a free house anywhere and I would not move from here, lol. I did move to Orlando for two yrs. I hated it!!! I love Florida but where I live people are so nice. It's crowded but not that bad....it is expensive but I own my home now. Thank god!!! The prices will go down it will just take a year or so...
Your comments about the heat in Orlando are sort of off. Yes it is hot and muggy but more like 91F and 55% humidity. 97F with 97% humidity would indicate a dew point of 96F; the dew point is more like 74F in July in Orlando. According to US weather service the average hottest day of the year in Orlando is 97.2 F.
@@williammaddox3339 Well, if I'm off, then the national weather service was off because that was my source. The "feels like" temp was around 120F according to them specifically for July 3, 2023. I remember it because we were packing up our house and wondered why it felt worse than normal. Is that everyday in July, generally no - but still mostly 90s with high humidity. Also, your comments are about averages - not conditions on a specific day.
Having lived in Dallas since the beginning of 2019, I love it here except during July and August. However, the days of picking up a home cheap here is long gone and watch out for the property taxes. DFW International is one of the biggest and busiest airports.
Agree with everything you said!
Just left Portland Oregon area last week after twenty plus years for a small rural town far away, big cities suck.
I used to live in Portland back before COVID and during COVID. I since move to Knoxville Tennessee and I do not miss portland
Nice shot of the cattle drive in FORT WORTH
Hey! I live in Moose Knuckle, AR. And yes, Charlotte, NC is expensive 😢
Some things I notice that are never mentioned about San Antonio is that New Braunfels and San Marcos are just a handful of miles away. River floating or Schlitterbahn. Always a good time.
You forgot Chicago, the greatest beacon of a US City.. filled with History, Hope and Honesty.. Check it out sometime, Mr. Briggs.
Tampa is extremely expensive. Pay is low. It used to be very economical.
Good stuff Briggs😀👍🏼
Thanks 👍
Phoenix: you cook for 4 months to have some of the most beautiful weather. Though its still near 90 right now. It's been a wild year. For people considering moving: it's getting very expensive very fast. Especially if youre looking at Tempe/Scottsdale area.
The sprawl that Briggs mentioned is probably going to contract some as the city/state is starting to take water reqs a bit more seriously. There have been communities on the outskirts literally running out of water.
Edit: if you like texas style bbq, you have a few options. Little Miss by the airport is #1, follow very closely by Mexi-Q in Mesa. Bobby-Qs is probably the most well known and as long as you don't go to the one on Camelback you'll be alright. Little Miss in sunny slope isn't as good as the one on university so I wouldn't use it as a comparison.
No ocean, If I'm gonna bake, at least let it be on a beach.
I concur on Bobby-Qs and this is from someone who was born and raised in Kansas City.
Phoenix is the best city ever🔥🔥
Thats the thing, People here in N Ill are moving to cheap Fla.. However its so hot you cant be outside say even 6 hours w/o getting drained. My friends who moved there? They go from a a/c home to a a/c car to a a/c place.... no thx
I just bought in Sun City West. It's clean, quiet and cloudless. Good move for me. Hopefully it won't sprawl itself out of water.
When I went to Navy boot camp in Orlando in 1971 the orange groves pressed right up to the fence of RTC. It was a surprisingly different place when I got stationed in Jax in 1987 and drove down to visit a buddy in Winter Park.
An ever changing landscape. When I lived in Colorado Springs in 1969 it was the 2nd fastest growing city after Phoenix.
Can you do the top cities with the highest population of singles? Curious. Nice videos, by the way.
I really liked your video about Las Vegas, NV. Since you mentioned this city in your video about the most underrated cities, why not do a solo video about Reno, NV?
Reno is not underrated. It's a dump.
@@rogerodle8750 Okay. Thanks for your opinion. I will say that at least it’s closer to more reliable water sources. That matters.
Reno is a gem!
@@anthonycourtney8029 I always thought it was a nice area and has gotten overlooked because of the sheer size and gusto of Las Vegas. But Reno has some key things going for it that Las Vegas doesn’t have: it’s situated in a more temperate climate, it’s located near more plentiful water sources, it has greater environmental variety, and it has a growing local agricultural scene.
Great video! The dust storms in Phoenix are called haboobs.
Lol "Hakabaloo"😂😂😂 Briggs is hilarious. I'm from The Valley.
I would say for Raleigh - if you come from a very walkable area to visit, you'll notice you have to drive everywhere. The bus system isn't great, and the infrastructure has been slow to keep up with the uptick in people moving in so there's a lot more traffic than you'd expect - especially during rush hour. And it's a lot of driving no matter what part of town you live in. Cost of living seems high considering how low it was just a few years ago, but it's on the way down. Downtown Raleigh is kind of a ghost town half the time and usually just feels like a big suburb. Durham is nearby and smaller but it seems to have a much better downtown. But! With all that said... Healthcare is exceptional, lots of job opportunities in tech and health, unique music venues, people here are SUPER friendly, and the food scene of the entire triangle is very underrated - lots of chefs moving out here from other parts of the country opening GREAT restaurants!
Bigger cities with bigger downtowns do worse. Cities are kind of obsolete. Better to have a small one like Raleigh
Raleigh could use some better restaurants. Generally, food is very average. Glad to hear chefs are interested. Need some excellent Italian, Asian, French, Brunch!
If Raleigh could invest in biking infrastructure that would be legit, less traffic and more people enjoying the lush greenery the city offers. But idk
Briggs I live west of Phx .. our summer this year is not even over with really we continue to stay hot longer .. Haboob is a mild tornado blowing wall dust and god aweful. I lost my roof in a tornado in 2016 ripped it right off.. we do get tornados and as our cities grow the weather changes more and more. We are being told that by 2030 we will be so hot that life here will be unlivable.. Phoenix isn’t a retirement city the prices are being raised by all the people
Moving here .. I dislike it here sooo bad would move in a heartbeat but hard to leave my family ..
Left 3 yrs ago. Don’t miss it!
Have lived in Orlando since 1997, and I can honestly say it has possibly tripled in size in all these years. Sorta liked it better when it was more of a hidden gem but quality of life is great and wouldn't live anywhere else
Your channel is the best brother. Thank you for your service. Hey how about cities around military bases or is that not a good video. Keep up the great work.
You mentioned doing a video on great places to retire. There is a community in Buckeye that's outside of Phoenix. Anyway, the community is called Victory at Verrado. You may want to check it out.
Phoenix Arizona has soooo many boomtowns in its major metropolitan area and a growing skyline
Charlotte is full if you can’t drive. We have enough New Yorkers here. Only previously licensed drivers welcomed
My name is Lance Cellier. Leavenwoth, Kansas is a great family oriented community with alot of opportunity and room for growth . I am originally from Ohio and raised in Texas. The hospitality in Leavenworth is amazingly wonderful. There is alot of career opportunity in Leavenworth and this wonderful community is expected to grow soon. There is alot of military presence in Leavenworth with alot of famous landmarks I enjoy living in this military community .Ft. Leavenworth makes this community a extremely safe place to live and retire . The beauty of the nature in Leavenworth is magnificent .The Missouri River nestled in the forest is a beautiful must sight to live and visit. I am waiting to wrestle a three foot American Alligator in front of the Missouri River in Leavenworh soon. If you are in Leavenworth, you well love and enjoy our hospitality. Lance
Las Cruces and Carlsbad NM is a booming city making New Mexicos population stay
yea
Another Cool 😎 video! Thumbs up 👍
So Texas, Flo rida and North cacalacki have some boomin cities. I Iive near Reno Nevada and its getting really big im a little surprised it wasnt on the list but cool video 👍🇺🇸
This time of year we get all 4 seasons in the same day here in Charlotte.
Love your videos. The problem in Florida homeowners insurance is impossible to get. And rates are out of control. Auto insurers are pulling out of Florida due to the hurricanes as well. Auto insurance has gotten real high that so many people drive without insurance.
I heard in the news all insurance companies are leaving Florida. That is against the law?? That mean a total collapse
Being honest, for the most part I liked these cities the way they were before all the growth and influx, especially the southern cities!
GREETINGS FROM THE PPRC GREAT VIDEO AS USUAL.🇺🇸🍺🍺
Wow I’m surprised to hear you say nice things about Phoenix, I usually hear you say how much you hate the desert haha. And I will now and forevermore refer to the haboobs/dust storms as hullabaloos.
My advice is move to a small town and live cheap. I used your live in the Nashville Area, it’s nice but it’s getting crowded and expensive. I much prefer the mountains, fresh air no traffic and scenic beauty.
All cities are in the Sun Belt except for Denver...not surprised
It's funny that you mention that Dallas is desertish. I've been saying for years that DFW, especially Fort Worth is slowly being incorporated into west Texas. There seems to be less days of rain. Forget trying to grow grass in the summer unless your willing to pay to water it everyday to keep it alive because it doesn't rain at all in the summer anymore. The times between rains is getting longer and longer. October is supposed to be the 2nd rainiest month and we didn't get any until the very end of the month this year.
The "dry line" that runs through the middle of the country and separates the very arid from the greener areas (think of it as following I-35) is steadily moving eastward due to climate change. So cities that were just on the edge of it (in Texas-DFW, San Antonio, Austin) are now on the "drier" side of it. Case in point-y'all had a little more rain than we did down here in central/South Texas.....we are dry and ROASTING over here!
DFW is indeed more dry.
I live near the Alliance Gateway area, think I-35W and 170. I HATE it! There is no peace. Between the nonstop road construction that I’m 1 mile from vibrating thru my foundation, thru my bed waking me up at 4:30am, and the never ending air traffic I can’t sleep. It’s 1:25am as I type this. We are close to Alliance airport, all cargo, Amazon, Walmart, etc, so your either hearing planes circling the airport, which is very loud as they do whatever they have to do to slow down, then there’s the joint reserve airbase, so fighter jets are zooming around a lot, now because we are close to Texas Motor Speedway, we hear, then see The Blue Angels out practicing often.
Seriously, we bought this house because there’s a green span behind us, and we have a beautiful back porch, I imagined mornings out there with a book and coffee, think fall, a blanket and cozy times. NOPE, if it’s loud from the highway noise, road construction, air traffic is bothersome in the spring and summer, imagine how loud it is when all the trees are naked in the autumn and winter. We really can’t move until my hubs retires in ten years, (nor would we want to until the interest rates drop, IF they drop) so here we are. Oh, the people here are snooty like CALM down every. Single. Subdivision. Is. The. Same. We are in the same tax bracket ma’am you aren’t wealthier than me lol.
@@valerief1231 yIkes! I've never thought about what it is like living next to Alliance. I'm literally right next to Lockhead and the naval air station so I can sympathize about the airplane noise.
Besides the rain if you over populate in areas to what nature can replenish in water you'll turn any place into a 🏜.
Awesome thanks 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Most welcome 😊
I'm curious. Was Columbus, Ohio close to making the list? Great videos by the way, I've been a fan for a few years.
Columbus cool city but I like cleveland better
The difference between Columbus and these cities are EVERYONE from other states and other countries are moving into Florida and Texas. Both states are growing at a astronomical rate. Ohio is decreasing in population. Not alot, but it is decreasing. No out of staters are moving into Ohio, only Ohio residents are moving into Columbus. Yes Columbus is “growing” but not by that much.
We’ve lived in Tampa since 2000 and can’t imagine living anywhere else.
I tried looking for a job in Charlotte and couldn’t find it. Their financial sector maybe good but, others aren’t. Yes! The weather is good but, except the end of summer can be humid. There’s already too many people in Charlotte and if it grows that much! The traffic will be worse especially on the weekdays. Weekends traffic aren’t so bad now. Charlotte already have a toll road now and that only relieves traffic for a little bit.
In AZ we call giant walls of dust/dust storms Haboobs. Mostly fine but scary if you’re stuck outside
The DFW Area in Texas has something for everyone so that's part of why it's so popular.
Well my family and I want out of this far left Ottawa Ontario Canada .!! Even my installers wanna come with me .!! We install tiles in new homes .!! Hopefully there’s lots of work.
@@legacyturbo8485 Well, I can say our weather is a lot better for sure.
@@thullraven1 well that’s a given .!!! I’m far right so I know I’ll be welcome in Texas .!! I bleed red not blue .!!!
@@legacyturbo8485 Then move to the rural areas. The biggest cities are a mix because a lot of them realize both the Far Right and Far Left have lost their minds. Reagan was my favorite POTUS and I have to believe he would seriously not even recognize the modern Republican party. Austin is the most Liberal, so if politics are important to you, I wouldn't go there if I was you. That being said, American Liberal/Conservative may be somewhat different than in Canada. I have to believe that Canadians regardless of political bent are smart enough to not support someone that is being charged with over 30 felonies and instigated an insurrection of the country he was supposed to be protecting.
@@legacyturbo8485then you best stay out of the big cities like Houston Dallas SanAntonio Austin ect. They are all blue as blue gets.
Dust storms are called “haboobs”. For the record, it’s an Arabic word meaning “blowing furiously”.
Love your channel!
Maybe Briggs was afraid of getting demonitized for saying that word!! 🤣 (he had to deal with that lately.....)
Lol somebody caught it lol.
Yeah we call em dust storms in America 🇺🇸
Dallas, Austin, & San Antonio are all on the I-35 corridor. They are growing fast but the communities between are growing even faster
You should get some updated footage of the Raleigh downtown area, definitely some new buildings down there.. in fact I work in one of them 😂
I just left Tampa and Orlando. Both those places are choking with the amount of new residents and the roads not being able to keep up. Constant congestion.
Please keep your pets inside though. They want the Florida panthers to come back.
I was born in Chicago, but I live rural now and wouldn't have it any other way!
THANKS FOR THE GREAT VIDEO ‼️🎉
I lived in Tampa, FL and the cost of living has been rising in the last 5 years. Housing prices are crazy high right now for old and small houses. Traffic is such that bad. I don’t recommend neither Tampa nor Florida in general!
Nashville is now wayyyy to crowded and the traffic is horrendous. Lived her all my life. It’s way to crowded these days!!!
With the raising concern about the water shortage, I predict a huge migration to the midwestern Great Lakes states. Cities like Buffalo, Erie, Cleveland, Detroit, Milwaukee, etc… may become very desired to their water
They can build a waterpipeline or desal plant,thats what they do in Australia
yes after we are gone
@@thylacine1004 not allowed to pipeline water from the Great Lakes. There’s an agreement with Canada
@@danholm4952 idk, I go thru the Vegas area a few times a year, and you can see the water levels in the Colorado river, and where it used to be. SoCal are already installing these water limiters on peoples individual water mains, and water desalination is way to pricey
For their water? What sort of post apocalyptic setting are you talking about? The west coast will be fine for the time being as far as water is concerned.
Yes summers in Texas are hell but we have mild winters so in essence our summers are like your winters (summer is our worst season in our year) the rest of the year is lovey.
Charlotte? Yes! Flourished there 1995-97. Huge potential!
When I tell people that Denver gets over 300 days a year of sunshine people think I’m crazy but it’s true. We don’t get all that snow that’s up in the mountains. In the middle of December, It’s more likely to be 55° and sunny then it is to be snowing and cold in Denver.
Tell them it's miserable, and we get a 4 foot storm every year.
Sooo...sunny then snowing?
They get most of their snow in spring. It does get cold there without a doubt sunny or not.
@@michelew6618 well, it’s not Miami but when the suns out in December and its 50° is pretty damn nice. Let’s say it’s a lot better than being in Wisconsin where it’s -20 and you can’t see the sun. That’s the point the point is is that it’s sunny 300 days a year that’s a lot compared to any city.
Home prices at least in South Austin have been going down and homes are sitting on the market for months. I suppose anything priced right would sell, but many sellers still have their heads in the clouds here.
For the most part Austin is growing to the north and northwest, rather than to the south. Newcomers seem to want new neighborhoods and to be closer to the Hill Country.
Hey now! We haven't called my town Mooseknuckle in years and I technically live just on the good side of the tracks!
Fun fact: a city in Montana called billings is called magic city because it grows an average of 0.80% a year. It’s already grown about 93% from 1969-2022
I used to live in San Antonio but I moved to the Hill Country, out near Bandera because it's kind of scary to see how much San Antonio is growing. Now don't get me wrong, I love San Antonio but it is just growing too fast.
I miss san antonio so much I live in houston and houston would be a great city if it was for this damn traffic and crime here
Lived in New Braunfel several years… loved the Hill Country
Love San Antonio. But yes the growth is fast
I hope Texas has not become another California like Florida. Housing and renting prices are getting crazy
TX doesn’t have the beautiful geography of CA, so prices shouldn’t skyrocket like CA.
FL also has a coastline, so prices also higher.
I have lived and owned property in all 3 States.
SERIOUSLY. I live in Orlando and it’s unaffordable 🤦🏽♂️
Florida is expensive AF. And the crime is getting out of control
Florida is just right wing California
Mixture of Texas and California
@@vinnie8495 Seriously
As a long time Floridian, we might not have state taxes but local taxes can be high-and getting higher. Also, all my expenses have sky rocketed. Insurance is a big one. Its almost as high as my mortgage. Lots of people I know looking to leave, as cost of living has gone up but salaries are still low.
The new city that I just moved to is great. It's a small town or small city and its nice. I just have to get used to the weather
Phoenix is getting hotter. For some, the intense heat June thru September may not be a good trade off for a mild winter. Keep in mind that PHX does have Winter. It is not like Florida where it stays warm in the winter months. December thru Feb highs are usually in the mid 50s to mid 60s. And lows are quite chilly with nighttime temps and morning temps in the 30s-40s. Jackets are required in PHX in the Winter months. But its typically dry and no ice or snow. Be aware that PHX has LOTS of homeless and drug use. If you don’t like urban blight or homeless people don’t move to PHX it’s pretty urban. The PHX suburbs are different and Scottsdale is nice but not afford for the average person.
Yes, this summer was unreal. However the previous 2 summers were amazing with the Monsoon actually arriving here. We need another 2021 or 2022 next summer.
Only July and August are untenable for me to enjoy being outdoors. March through June and September through November are awesome for me here, especially April, May, October, and November. I love gardening, so I'm loving the weather this month. December through February are a bit chilly at night for me, but nice during the day.
Yeah 27th Avenue 😂
Mesa has their share of homeless.
Scottsdale is Phoenix & Phoenix sucks. Believe I know, I live in the high desert about an hour from there; don’t want to say where because we’re being invaded by CA, WA, OR, CO, TX… ridiculous
@@timothygarrahan2122 Oh, Be Nice! 😘
I love where I've been living more than 4 decades!
N California!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
True North? Meaning north of Sac?
Beautiful area❤️
🙋🏼
You should see my neighborhood seriously a house goes up for sale and like three days later the sale is complete and I see moving vans already. The next week I see construction then quiet as people settle down again. It’s crazy how fast the houses are going up and at asking price too.
Where’s that ..????
Great job Briggs ❤❤❤😮😮😮😊😊
Very interesting indeed 🙂
Glad you think so!
People generally don’t retire in Phoenix, mostly Scottsdale or Sun City.
Yes they do people love Phoenix.
If you can afford it 😊
My parents retired and are living in casa grande Arizona. They live in an adult community. My parents originated from Portland Oregon live there all of life. They have been living there for maybe 20 years or so. And I'm also from Portland Oregon.
1:55 the beach clip is actually Clearwater Beach,fl 2:37 ybor fl that's pretty much all bars restaurants and nightclubs
Moved to Florida.❤ I love it here!! From California. Lots of people are moving to Florida, amazing. There is so much to do and lots of places to visit.❤ My friend flew to Florida and stayed for 1 month. Hated to leave Florida. 😢
Me too! So happy to be outta CA! Love being in a well run state!
Would love to be able to own a home in Florida or San Antonio ( as a native long long time Californian ) just can't give up the weather here though
