They have the same Texas pride that everyone else in Texas does, there just more open-minded about things.

You nailed much of it. Though I'd rather be shot than tuck my jeans into my boots. Otherwise... NAILED it. Texas born and bred here!! Though, like others, I warn of one thing: Texas is a big state. Austin is night and day different from other areas of the state. ("Keep Austin Weird" is not just a slogan. haha) Take time to explore more of it if ever you make it back! Even Dallas and Fort Worth (direct neighbors to each other) and distinctly different from one another. You may have to make several trips to get a taste of it all... but, most of your generalities are going to be found everywhere. And its nice to see a POSITIVE review for a change. Thanks!!!!! haha!

Any further east and inbreeding starts to kick in. The prevailing color in Houston is brown. Stay around the hill country and throw in a trip to South Padre.

While, yes, boots are popular, they're not worn by everyone. Secondly, go to Houston and you will experience humidity like nothing you've ever felt before. Anyway, I've lived all over the state, in Lubbock currently. I highly recommend never coming to Lubbock, nor ever venturing west of I-35. Dallas is snooty, Austin rocks, and Houston is my town. Anyway, enjoy our state and our unending hospitality! Ok, that boot thing is false. While, yes, boots are popular, they’re not worn by everyone.
