How Moving to Texas Transformed a Veteran's Life
From the welcoming communities near Fort Hood to the peaceful neighborhoods of Central Texas, our state offers veterans more than just warm weather – it offers real financial freedom. Here’s how one Marine Corps veteran discovered the life-changing benefits of calling Texas home.
Finding Freedom in Texas
Meet Steve, a Marine Corps veteran with a 100% disability rating who was looking for a fresh start. In his previous state, high property taxes and income taxes stretched his VA disability benefits thin, leaving little room for the life he dreamed of living.
That all changed when Steve learned about Texas’s veteran benefits. With no state income tax and complete property tax exemption for 100% disabled veterans, Texas offered something his previous state couldn’t – genuine financial breathing room.
A Texas-Sized Welcome
After moving to Texas and purchasing a modest home, Steve experienced firsthand how our state takes care of veterans. His 100% disability rating qualified him for complete property tax exemption on his new home. Combined with Texas’s zero state income tax, he found himself saving thousands of dollars annually.
“It felt like I had gotten a raise,” Steve said. “For the first time in a long time, I had breathing room in my budget.”
Living Life on His Terms
Those tax savings opened new doors for Steve. He put the extra funds toward experiences he’d always wanted:
- Taking his grandchildren on a road trip to visit national parks
- Starting woodworking classes at his local community center
- Supporting the veterans’ charity that helped him years ago
“Texas gave me more than savings,” Steve said. “It gave me the chance to actually enjoy my retirement.”
Why Texas Makes a Difference
Steve’s story shows how Texas supports its veterans. With no state income tax and property tax exemptions for 100% disabled veterans, our state creates real opportunities for veterans to thrive.
For veterans thinking about relocating, Texas offers more than just financial benefits – it provides a fresh start in a state that honors military service. “Coming to Texas changed everything for me,” Steve said.
