Suggestions By Data Reveals One Should Think Before Moving To Texas

Using data by ConsumerAffairs, all 50 states in the nation were ranked on various factors that decided if you should move there or not. The four factors were as follows:

- Affordability Rank
- Economy Rank
- Education & Health Rank
- Quality of Life Rank
- Safety Rank

Where did the Lone Star State rank overall in the standings? In affordability, Texas ranked 41st, 37th in Economy, 51st in education & health, quality of life was 16th, and 38th in safety.

So, with the exception of quality of life, those rankings aren't as promising as one would've hoped. But what was the final ranking for the state? Sadly, it's not what a Texan wants to hear.

Texas landed in the bottom ten of list. In fact, the Lone Star State was placed 49th. So, it looks like Texas is indeed too full.
