Agree completely. This area reminds me a lot of what you are seeing in Eastern Pennsylvania with NYC/NJ pushing out that way.
Texans buying up property in OK has actually been a "thing" for some time now. Much lower property taxes is the main draw. Also, I find Southern OK to be far more scenic than anything in N Texas. Over time I image the scarcity of water rights in TX will continue to push people north of the Red River.
Speaking of taxes, part of the reason Durant has had a ton of success in luring logistics firms is these types of companies are usually very land-intensive. One could cut their property tax in half just moving 10-15 miles north. I was actually quite surprised to see Bryant County growing much faster than Grayson County TX across the Red River.
