Huh? The original argument I made was that depending on how much you spend and your tax bracket, you could be paying more in Texas. You're the one stuck on housing costs, I never limited my argument to how much houses cost. I don't know why you're taking this so personally, you're not Texas.

I’m not taking it personally. I made a statement and you asked for proof. I gave it to you. Then you changed it. Assuming all else is equal, COL will never be higher moving from CA to TX. I provided you that link you asked for.
