Texans are notorious for being loud and proud about our state, and now research backs up what we already know — if you're born here, you stay here.

Driving the news: Texans are the most likely to stay in their home state compared to natives of other states, according to a new Dallas Fed report that measures where people are likely to stick around.

• 82% of native Texans stay. By comparison, Wyoming has the lowest retention, with just about 45% staying in the state.

Why it matters: Texas is attractive to natives and non-natives alike because it offers several large metropolitan areas to live, ample job opportunities, and a relatively low cost of living compared to other states.

• That Texans stay is an additional draw to prospective residents, per the report. The state lags only Florida in attracting residents from elsewhere.

Zoom out: The report analyzed U.S. Census Bureau data to determine the share of people born in a state who stay.

• North Carolina (75.5%), Georgia (74.2%), California (73%), and Utah (72.9%) rounded out the list of "stickiest" states.

State of play: Texas, like the other "stickiest" states, recorded above average job growth between 2010 and 2019, making it more appealing for residents to stay.

• The latest employment forecast predicts jobs will increase by 3% this year.

Reality check: There is some economic cooling in Texas. Retail sales remained flat in August, and placements of new orders from Texas manufacturers have been declining for a year.

Yes, but: Overall, the Texas economy is still faring well, despite national concerns that this year could bring a recession.

• "There's reason to be hopeful," Dallas Fed senior business economist Emily Kerr tells Axios. "We don't see a lot of mayday signs."

This summer's heatwave negatively affected revenue and production at about a quarter of Texas businesses surveyed by the Dallas Fed.

Driving the news: For the first time in its monthly manufacturing and service sector surveys, the bank asked hundreds of Texas business executives about the impact of record-breaking heat.

• Retailers and manufacturers that reported a decrease in revenue or production said lower customer demand and lower labor productivity led to the declines.

Why it matters: The survey quantifies what many of us are hearing anecdotally — people are less likely to go out, and workers are struggling in the heat.

Details: Lower customer demand was the primary driver of decreases in revenue for retail businesses.

• Manufacturers reported that decreased revenue and production were driven by lower labor productivity and workers struggling to toil in extreme temperatures.

Of note: Most of the businesses that reported a decrease in production and revenue to the Dallas Fed said the drop was slight. Just about 5% reported a significant decline.

The bottom line: The summer heatwave is predicted to cost the Texas economy nearly $10 billion, per an analysis by The Perryman Group, an economic consulting firm.

• The projected losses are due in part to declining productivity as workers struggle in extreme temperatures, per the Houston Chronicle.
