Freeport, Texas

As the second-largest state in the U.S., there's no doubt about the fact that Texas is full to the brim with happy locals. But you won't find too many of them in the city of Freeport - as more and more people move away from this place on a yearly basis. However, that's all down to mother nature. Due to its location on the gulf coast, this city is hit hard every single hurricane season. And it's a tough place to live.

In fact, only 30% of kids who grow up in Freeport stay in Freeport to go to college - so it seems as though they can't get away quickly enough.
