It would be more helpful if you mentioned your budget. Also - and I'm sure some will down vote me for this - if you don't want people to think you've brought a "backwoods, ignorant, stereotypical Texan mentality" with you, you might want to drop the use of "y'all" (especially "y'alls" - that made my eyes bleed, how is that even a word). Other than that, welcome.

Sorry but that is a product of 31 years living here. It AIN'T going anywhere lolol. As far as budget, it's hard to determine. I haven't looked at the pay scale for teacher there so I am not really sure on budget and here in Texas, how much you make as a teacher depends on years of experience and where you live. Poor school districts like mine don't pay anything compared to cities. I do know a 2 bedroom something would be preferable.

eh don't mind him. I'm from Oklahoma originally, I still say y'all occasionally even after 18 years. No one bats an eye. Pronounce "aunt" like "ant", on the other hand, and oh boy you will not hear the end of it.

People around here think I'm actually apologizing when my Midwestern "Ope, Sorry!" slips out.

Oh fuck off.

OP, ignore this clown. Many of us have traveled and lived outside of the Northeast and don't have tiny little minds like this jerk.

Lmao 10 downvotes. You predicted it!

Anyway, no disrespect to you, but we’re much more open-minded than that. Speak however you want OP.

Opinion:

I have never once lived down south, but I sometimes say, "y`all" and "you'll" -- There is nothing wrong with it, in my opinion.
