No, Texas blows arse. Texans are too full of themselves. I have more reason to return to Louisiana because of family and absolutely no reason to go to your shitty state.

This largely depends on what industry you are working in. In Louisiana, it's more accurate to say that outside of specific industries, you are going to have a hard time finding a good job.
Also, consider that "good job" is subjective. What's good enough for some isn't good enough for others.
Example: If you want a teacher job paying approximately 40K a year, there are plenty of those jobs if you go for certification. But if you dont want to do that for the rest of your life, you need to reevaluate yourself.

Hard Pass I enjoy speaking English.

I find the service workers have a better grasp of English here in Houston than their south Louisiana counterparts

Never once heard of someone moving to the city of dreams Houston to make it big. I lived there for a year and it was fricking miserable Posted on 10/24/19 at 10:32 am to TigerNlc

No, maybe popeyes in marrero, if you work at just about any sitdown restaurant they speak english in New Orleans.
Say what you want it is entertaining watching new orleans finest communicate.

26,469 moved to TX from Louisiana 2015-2016

Or maybe we're tired of the one horse pony that is O&G in Louisiana....yeah theres jobs but not enough that provide clear advancement opportunity, there is a reason Louisiana's population is declining, but a good ole boy like you wouldnt understand why i guess

I lived in Memorial (between Loop and Beltway) in the 80's, and loved it. Office was near the Summit (now a mega church) Public schools were as good as the best private ones here in Louisiana.
Housing outside of Beltway 8 is twice the home for half the money as anywhere in BR, or was a decade ago.
Just hang out where people go to take a smoke break outside Galleria area office buildings, and they are talking excitedly about millions on this deal or that being made. I ain't talking about anything close to senior management of major firms either.

I agree with this. High paying jobs are at a premium, but if youre good at what you do it dosent matter. If youre average to bad then there are no high paying jobs here unless youre a relative.

New Orleans is more like New York than Houston is.

Lived in Dallas for a bit, I think it's a lot better than Houston, although I'd rather live in Ft. Worth. Little slower pace, down to earth people, and still a lot to do.
