That's basically Mexico and I don't speak Spanish well enough.

Nice house tho, minus the quarter acre.

If you want to live next door to a Cartel boss who's beheading people in his backyard every Sunday, then go head, live in a mansion in McAllen Texas.

And just so you're aware, even the cops and judges down there are on the Cartel's payroll.

Estimating $834/month in property tax
8.25% sales tax
Median personal income in 2020 was $22.3k, median household income was $49k
Population was 87% latino in 2020

What's rare to find is a place where
-Real estate is cheap
-Taxes are low
-Incomes are high

I was just down there driving around checking the area out. It's safer than most of the US.

Everyone knows English down there, you'd be fine.

Nah everything is there. Costco, a mall, every chain that exists pretty much. It's also close to the nicest beach in Texas.



I actually think it was even cheaper not long ago. I tried talking my wife into moving down there but unfortunately everyone seems to think it's dangerous, including her. San Diego is right on the border too and no one seems to mind. Also, the beaches on South Padre Island > the beaches near San Diego.

Just looked, it probably would have been around $350k before covid.

Ya I just closed on that exact situation in Chicago.

Although I am jelly of the amount of house you can buy in McAllen Texas, I’m never moving to McAllen Texas.

Would rather scrap it out in places with stuff going on, yolo, would have rather lived in Rome than a farm in 250AD

Property taxes suck in Texas, still lower than where I'm from though (Illinois).

Local income doesn't matter if you're remote.

The people down there are really lucky everyone thinks this, otherwise prices would look like they do in Florida now.
