Just curious, what's it like there? Has anyone been there before? Lived there?

What's cost of living like (compared to SoCal)?

I found an opening there... If they don't decrease my pay I could be better off down there maybe.

Moving from SoCal to Beaumont Texas is going to be a shock for you. You will be able to buy a huge house and still have equity left from the old one. If they don't "adjust" your salary, you will be suprized at the cost of living here.

The downside is that Beaumont is a bit "redneck", but it's a nice town. It's close to Houston and Galvestion (Note: close in Texas is 2 hours highway driving or less), so you can go to the beaches on the Gulf, but Hurricanes are known to blow through there.

You won't have to worry about an emissions test, Beaumont is a "non-emissions" county.

If you take the job, hookup with David Lee out of Houston. He can introduce you to the local 914 bunch.


And you can come to the MUSR next year!!!
