Agreed with others that you need to figure out the property tax thing. States get their money one way or another. Sometimes it's good to retire somewhere that has a high income tax since you won't have any income and property taxes are lower. Since you won't need to commute you can go live in Marble Falls or somewhere in the hill country where it's beautiful, cheap, and easy to find a rural/farm tax break.
It is FREAKIN' hot, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I am from Texas and might retire there someday, but the heat is one of the things that drove me away. As much as I love the food and the people, I was miserable 9 months a year. But I'm one of those guys that wears a t-shirt when it's 48 degrees out, so YMMV.
