TEXAS or SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA?

It's really up to you, but Southern California has more unpredictable events, humid weather, and worse air pollution. Central Texas, especially the Austin/San Antonio area, has amazing food, wide spaces to live only 10 minutes from a major city, hurricanes and tornadoes avoid the area, and the people are voted most hospitable in the country repeatedly. Both are fantastic, but I choose Texas, and have never regretted it.
