yeah, anecdotal but I had to have a conversation with a Cali family on a boat tour last month in Puerto Vallarta.
They saw the Texas gear my crew was wearing, and made assumptions about us. Started saying how they were looking for a vacation home in Galveston bc Cali is SO terrible, the homeless, needles etc., and why all the people leaving Cali who would still vote the way they did back home when they're leaving for something better is so stupid etc.
And the dad was a hulking L.A. county deputy who made a point to mention his firearms and had sinister tatts all over his body, including his knuckles. Mom lamented that prices in Galveston had shot up so much the last couple of years. I tried to tell them, housing/taxes aren't low in places like that, property taxes can be insane, and they wouldn't have it.... "but but you don't have state income tax HERR DURR everything so much better there derp"
