Texas is the second most populous and the second-largest of the 50 states in the United States of America. Geographically located in the South Central part of the country, Texas shares an international border with Mexico and borders the U.S. states of New Mexico to the west, Oklahoma to the north, Arkansas to the northeast, and Louisiana to the east. Houston is the largest city in Texas and the fourth-largest in the United States. Other major cities include Dallas, El Paso and Austin - the state capital. Austin has been the top inbound moving destination for 2012 and is still one of the preferred cities for Americans to move to.
