Attn' Texas resident growers

Looking to the future and a highly possible move to the Lone Star state.
 
I dont like big city life but 25-50 miles from them is reasonable. Access to shooting, hunting, fishing a must. Low humidity climate sought.
Looking for recommendations.
Pros and cons welcome.
 
 
 
Sounds like you would like West Texas or the Panhandle where it's not as humid. The bigger cities on that side of the state are El paso (if you want to look at mexico), Abilene, Lubbock or Amarillo up in the Panhandle. Google Texas Hill Country, I would say it's the most favorable area in Texas. It's the region around San Antonio and Austin, that's where I hope to be someday..
 
I couldn't live in San Antonio. I spent two weeks there in July and it's too hot and dry for me. It isn't the heat but no humidity made it unbearable. I would wake up every morning with dried blood in my nose and had to put damp towels on the hotel A/C.

That was just a clip from the movie 'Bernie'.  You'll have to watch the movie to see the rest.  
 
There's great hunting and fishing in the Piney Woods, however it's humid all year round.  
 
For fishing, you've got Toledo Bend and Sam Rayburn Reservoir.

Well that idea will make for a great vacation retreat then. But as far as living it wont do, Need a dry environment.
 
Yea, you're gonna have to head west to escape the suffocating soup.
