Does Texas have state income tax?
Texas has no state income tax, making it one of the most tax-friendly states in the country. This is a major draw for relocators from California, New York, and Illinois. Property taxes in Texas are higher than average, typically 1.5%–2.5% of assessed value — which offsets some of the income tax savings. Overall tax burden is still well below high-income-tax states.
What are home prices like in Texas in 2026?
Texas home prices range widely. Dallas neighborhoods have a median around $663,000. Austin neighborhoods median around $507,000. San Antonio is much more affordable at around $259,000 median. Smaller Texas markets and suburban areas offer entry points below $300,000. Texas home prices rose sharply through 2022 but have stabilized in many markets.
Is Texas affordable compared to California?
Texas is substantially more affordable than California across most metrics. No state income tax (vs up to 13.3% in California), home prices typically 30–50% lower in comparable cities, and no state capital gains tax. Austin is the closest Texas city to California pricing but still significantly cheaper than LA or SF. San Antonio and DFW offer the most dramatic cost-of-living improvement for California relocators.
