I moved from California to Texas but only stayed 4 months. Texas isn't much cheaper, and everyone was politics-obsessed.

Much of the US, even Texas uses natural gas for heating. Houses in much of the southern US aren't designed for cold weather so people add space heaters. Plus if I remember correctly the cold shut down the natural gas providers in Texas so that wasn't even working.
Yup, I believe ten years prior the federal government told them that the gas plants were susceptible to freezing pipes of incoming gas. Since texas grid is independent, they couldn't force the plants to winterize. After the shit show, the governor blamed windmills, even though they over produced, because a few windmills stopped working.
