There is no 'one size fits all' answer here, John,it depends on the individual. Some people have strong roots to home, some don't. For example, people who were "army brats" (absolutely no disrespect intended) and moved from location to location in their formative years probably never considered any place to be "home". They can be happy anywhere. Then there's folks like me, and you, I think, who know exactly where "home" is. I grew up on land (northwest Louisiana, five miles from Texas) settled by my great-grandfather after the Civil War. Nearly all of four generations of my direct ancestors are buried in the same cemetery, half a mile from where I grew up. My marker is already in place there. Those scrubby red clay hills are in my DNA.
I left home for school, and then work, and a career move took me to Houston. It was only 300 miles, but it seemed like the other side of the moon. Yes, I eventually made it back "home".
So, if you can leave home behind, and not pine for it, then give the opportunity a shot. But if deep in your gut you feel it will be a mistake, it will be a mistake. The Wichita Falls area is nice country, and I'm sure the people there are as good as you'll find anywhere.
