Over time there has been a major quantity of migrations in Texas that have affected this state with its effect on the current political landscape. The four major migrations that have happened in Texas would be the northern migration, the great depression, the southern-western migration, and lastly the California migration. Four big migrations have affected Texas each in its own way, but I believe the one that caused the most damage while affecting Texas was the southern-western migration. The southern-western migration can be considered the one that affected Texas the most because it was like two big migrations in one. One way it affected Texas was because of people coming in to receive shelter from Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and staying permanently rather than going back home, the other would be people leaving Texas because of the great recession in 2008.
First off hurricane Katrina was a very tragic event that caused many people to move to Texas just for shelter but ended up moving to Texas permanently rather than going back home which was the main cause of the migrations in 2005. All those who decided to stay in Texas only added to the population, which brought the Texas economy down on the supply of jobs. In addition to increasing the population, schools were also being affected since they would have to squeeze in all the new incoming students who were seeking rescue since they could not be left uneducated. Some schools did not have as enough space as it seemed and still took in students while reaching their capacity limit. As a result of the overflow of people coming in for jobs, homes, and education, many people who were already living in Texas had to push themselves ten times more to make sure they were able to keep their jobs without having to lose them to the people who decided to stay. Most Katrina victims were given some sort of help according to Lex Frieden, in his article, ‘The Impact of Hurricane Katrina and Rita’. All victims were helped but those whose job site was destroyed by the hurricane chose to leave to find a new one. In most cases, they would give jobs to the people who already lived in Texas, they had the advantage, however, if a new employee worked better well let’s just say they had to take one for the team. Over a series of years after many people lost their jobs to those who were coming in, therefore causing struggle to get a new one and, along with the economy going down it resulted in the great recession of 2008.
Many think the Great Recession was just a random downfall of the economy, but In theory, it can it be also be said that it was truly started when foreigners who were affected by Hurricane Katrina started to stay for good in Texas rather than going home when it was all clear. Not only can it be said it started because of the newcomers but because of all the money that had to be used for the reconstruction of places like New Orleans, which Texas invested towards lowered the Texas economy even further. Along with the reconstruction money, all those who moved to Texas had to use many of the shelters and resources to get by before they could continue on their terms. The recession, of course, did not only affect many of those who got replaced by the new incomers, but the new incomers also started to lose their jobs. Thus, making them pack their bags once again to leave for another state in search of a new living area along with a new job. The recession was just a repetition of the great depression but of course, no one would want to admit to that since it was a lot ‘minor’ than the great depression. In theory, both the great depression and the Great Recession were caused by the government’s ability to keep the Federal Reserve intact, by keeping their interest rates low enough to keep stability according to the article on the FEE. Along with the fact it stated that they both started with the Federal Reserve, it also stated that it was also caused by massive federal spending. In 1929 and 2008, some sort of executive decision was made to ‘better’ the economy.
As a result, I can conclude that the southern-western migration is the greatest migration that has impacted Texas because of how much money the Texas economy lost all at once from the executive decisions made by our president. It was overrun by people wanting higher wages and better opportunities that not many jobs could offer as much as the public asked for. Even the president tried to avoid this issue by adding a new law that gave a ‘$787 billion stimulus package that sent tax dollars to various cities and voting groups across the nation’ to help jobs with ‘expensive’ job bills. Along with that, it made Texas increase in population because of the Hurricane Katrina victims by a high population of ‘about 130,000 new residents in Huston’, according to The New York Times article written on June 7, 2006, by Rick Lyman. In some cases, many may believe that not very many but as a whole it is since at that time in 2005 Texas had a population of 22,859,968 thousands of people already but Huston its self-had 5,273,595 people while adding 130,000 more which is over 5,403,595 people all in one small part of Texas imagine all the other places. The southern-western migration can be considered the most impactful of all migrations because of its two big events in one. The first event had people coming into Texas adding to its jobs causing people to think it was too much causing them to act like ‘it was survival of the fittest’. The second major event in the southern-western migration was the great recession that happened three years after Hurricane Katrina causing many people to leave the state looking for jobs and a state with a better economy. Making the southern-western migration the most powerful migration that has occurred.
