Yes $250k can get a decent house. You should be looking in the far outskirts of any of the major cities, I would say east of Dallas is closer to most major bass lakes, I have no clue about the duck hunting. Heartless, man - You forgot about the guys ticker. Houston area has great hospitals as well and can smash lots of ducks. Can't speak for the bass fishing. 250k buys you a starter home or in an older neighborhood. Dude, I’m a heart patient for gawd sake

Hard decision for sure trying to balance living life and tending to your medical needs. I wish you well

I have good suggestions, until the medical care part was added.

I'm partial to west fort worth. Tons of fishing close and major hospitals closer.

I just bought a DR Horton home in Denton for $270k. They're nice, but definitely super close to my neighbors.

San Antonio is your best bet for coast, duck hunting and bass fishing. $250k will get you a good home. Dallas has the best access to freshwater lakes, Houston is great for duck hunting and decent saltwater. San Antonio gets you Baffin Bay the mecca of inshore for massive trout, decent duck hunting (coast and choke canyon lake) and decent all species lakes. Whitney, Somerville, Choke, Mathis, LBJ, Buchanan etc.

First, best of luck in your move. Second, with congestive heart failure, you’ll need to be within 2 hours of Dallas. My dad had a transplant at Baylor and they loved in Quitman. You can get plenty for $250k between Dallas and Quitman.

Just chiming in to say you’re going to regret moving to north Texas if you’re looking for duck hunting as good as Kansas. Everything else is good, depending on where you move to. Yep, and from I hear goose hunting on the coast is not what it once was. I hunted near Brookshire in the 70s and 80s. Division of my dad's company had a great lease. I got spoiled duck hunting when I had private ponds to hunt. I decided not to go back to hunting public lakes. As far as housing look around Ft. Worth or head east and south of Dallas.

First 2 lakes are a haul from San Antonio.

No one mentioned Amarillo. We have hospitals, a lake, hunting, schools and it is affordable.

I would take a three hour ride in an ambulance to stay away from the metromess ..... that being said, the outskirts of Tyler will be hard to beat, and Louis and Peaches Owen is one of the best heart hospitals there is, plus Tyler has just about anything you want and 20 minutes later, you are in the back woods.

I’d look no further than Tyler area. Rolling hills of East Texas, Pine trees, awesome fishing and one the best heart hospitals in the state. Great area and would meet your needs, Tyler is a major medical area of east Texas
You bettcha! oofta!
