    2-3 weeks isn’t horrible. I’m curious how the 50K deaths from April/may are going to get trickled in. And I assume a big chunk is NY/NJ are they going to get a grim second wave?

    It’s tim to move Race

    I turned to my wife and said we should move to Texas

    She didn't say no
    Do people even own floors in Texas? Might want to do some research before you pull the trigger.

    Some posters here have specifically pointed at Houston's supposed hospital issues during the latest "2nd wave"... I believe famous centrist @MelloDawg has, a few of the dumb Vid cheerleaders have too..

    The city of Houston has provided some data the rest of the state of Texas has not... the actual date of death...

    Of the 71 COVID-19 deaths so far in July. Of these, only 7 actually occurred in July.

    Update:





    Asute posters like @GrundleStiltzkin , @LesGrossman , and @LoneStarDawg will note that this is a similar "issue" that is occurring in the National data displayed by this chart posted here about a week ago.






    there's a 2 week reporting delay for deaths so that would actually make sense that July deaths are only beginning to be reported.

    The reporting delay was mentioned in another thread as part of the cases/hospitalization/deaths lag that I was told does not exist, with the evidence being from March when we were not testing close to fast enough.

    Also is your takeaway that the increase in reported deaths is not a concern cause the deaths were from >2 weeks ago?

    Worst part of Texas is the 100 degree summers and if you catch it wrong the heat index north of 110 ... the further south you go the more humidity you have to deal with.

    I generally enjoyed a lot about living in Texas for about 9 months of the year. If you can get a place that affords you the opportunity to be around water then all the better. If you like hills, mountains, etc. then you should get a summer place in Colorado.

    A lot of truth to this...if you move down here (esp Houston) make sure to get a nice big pool. Makes the miserable 3 months of summer much more tolerable.

    Rural Texas can be a bit weird in a stereotypical way, wouldn’t want to be a ragging liberal in Lufkin. suburb/urban Texas is generally metropolitan agreeable people and massive nice new homes.

    Depends on what you’re looking for.
