Texas, state in the southern United States. As of 2020 state had an estimated population of 29,360,759 inhabitants. The state was created 178 years ago in 1845. Its capital city is Austin.
With nearly 29 million residents, Texas is home to many lively cities and charming small towns. From the bright lights of Dallas to the historic streets of San Antonio, Texas offers an incredible amount of diversity when it comes to local culture and communities. Sprawling metropolises, college towns, border cities, and West Texas outposts each provide their own flavor and appeal.
Some of the most notable Texan cities include Houston, the fourth largest city in the United States and a major global hub for the energy, manufacturing, aeronautics, and healthcare sectors. Austin, the state capital, is beloved for its live music scene, outdoor recreation, and the famous South by Southwest festival. Dallas shines as a major economic engine and culture center in the American Southwest.
Smaller towns like Fredericksburg, Marfa, Jefferson, and Gruene offer quieter charms like bed and breakfasts, antique stores, and cozy cafes. El Paso and Laredo provide tastes of Texas life along the Mexican border.
From the gorgeous beaches of Corpus Christi to the mountains around El Paso, the cities and towns of Texas are as diverse as the state itself. The unique blend of Wild West, Southern hospitality, and Mexican influences make for addictively distinct Texas communities that proudly call the Lone Star State home.
