[quote=Panderso]Another aspect to consider in the California vs Texas debate is state benefits, especially if you are looking to have kids. In California, a woman gets 3 to 4 months of paid disability/family leave and I believe the husband can take up to 6 weeks as well. Texas has no such program so you’ll be relying on your wife’s work’s disability insurance, which generally pays for 6 weeks max for her alone.[/quote]
I think CA is the only state that also has maternity/paternity care since I used it and took the max time off and got paid a little for it too.
