What Do I Need to Know About Staying in Texas? 

The second-largest state in the US by both area and population, Texas is home to some of the country's most dynamic and fast-growing cities. Whether you're heading there for a short-term assignment or a longer relocation, here's what to bear in mind before you arrive. 

Getting Around Texas 

Texas is a vast state, and the car remains a very practical way to get around, particularly outside of city centres. Hiring a vehicle is advisable for business travellers. That said, Texas is well connected by air, with major international airports in Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW), Houston (IAH), Austin (AUS), and San Antonio (SAT). Dallas/Fort Worth is one of the busiest airports in the world and offers direct routes to and from the UK. Within the main cities, public transport options include the METRO network in Houston, DART in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, and the CapMetro system in Austin, covering both rail and bus services. 

Weather in Texas 

Texas has a varied climate, shaped by the sheer scale of the state. Summers are hot throughout, with temperatures regularly reaching 35°C, particularly in central and western areas. Spring and autumn tend to be more comfortable, with daytime temperatures typically sitting between 18°C and 27°C, though spring showers and thunderstorms are not uncommon. Winters are generally mild in the south, though northern parts of the state can experience cold snaps and occasional snowfall. The Gulf Coast is also susceptible to hurricanes during the late summer and autumn months. Packing layers and keeping an eye on local forecasts is always recommended.

The Texas Economy 

Texas boasts one of the most powerful and diversified economies in the United States. Energy remains central to the state's identity, with Texas leading the country in both oil and gas production as well as renewable energy generation. The technology sector has transformed Austin into one of the most talked-about business destinations in the US, while Dallas and Houston serve as major centres for finance, logistics, and corporate headquarters. The state also has a well-established manufacturing base, a significant aerospace and defence industry, and the Port of Houston — one of the busiest in the country.

Things to know when visiting Texas

When staying in a serviced apartment in Texas, there are a few key things to know about the prevailing cultural norms.

Food – Texas is a large state, and its cuisine has been influenced by a wide range of cultures including Southern, German, African American, Creole, and Mexican. Some of the most commonly eaten meals in the lone start state are barbecues, hamburgers, chilis, steaks, and corn dogs. Pecan pie is also very popular in most southern states, but Texas is the only one that claims it as its official state desert. The state is very big on their meats and their serving sizes are larger, the cities are more spread out, and the vehicles are bigger. So if you’re ordering at a restaurant and don’t eat a lot, it is recommended sharing a dish.

Slangs and Phrases – Everyone knows Y’all is common lingo in Texas but not many people point out other words or vernacular used in the state. For example, “Coke” refers to any carbonated beverage, not specifically Coca-Cola. “Bless your heart” is an expression used to show pity, the famous “Howdy” means hello, “This ain’t my first rodeo” means to have experience in something and last but not least, “Y’all” is short for ‘you all.’

Climate – Although there isn't a particularly bad time of year for the weather, the state's semi-arid and desert parts have especially hot summers. Despite a little spring rain, the spring and fall are moderate and comfortable in terms of temperature. Fall sees less rain and day temperatures ranging from 70⁰F (21.1⁰C) to 80⁰F (26.7⁰C). Winter in Texas may be chilly and snowy in certain areas, especially in the north. Additionally, the state is susceptible to tornadoes, hurricanes, and thunderstorms.
