Texas' Big Bend named one of the world's must-see destinations for 2023
The pandemic took a toll on pretty much every industry, including travel. But some destinations suffered less than others: Big Bend National Park out in far west Texas became a hot spot for road trippers from Texas and beyond. To that end, National Geographic Travel included the vast natural wonder in its recent Best of the World 2023 list.
The annual list rounds up 25 global destinations "under the radar, ahead of the curve, and ready for you to start exploring," according to the article. National Geographic editors frame the list within five categories: Community , Nature , Culture , Family , and Adventure .
Big Bend landed in the Nature category, "5 wildly underrated natural escapes for 2023," and it's in good company: The list also includes the Azores, Botswana, Slovenia, and the Scottish Highlands.

Apartment rents finally start to decline in Fort Worth and across the U.S.
In good news for renters, rates finally appear to be dropping in Dallas-Fort Worth and across the U.S. — and it's a trend predicted to prevail through the end of 2022.
After more than a year of record-setting rent hikes, rent prices decreased in October for the second month in a row. According to a report by Apartment List, rent across the U.S. went down by 0.7 percent in October — the largest single-month dip since 2017.
Rents went down in 89 of the nation’s 100 largest cities for the second straight month, following a peak in August, and a welcome reversal to major rent increases that have occurred since the pandemic.
Here are current rates among 10 of the largest cities in the U.S.:
- San Francisco – $2,640
- Los Angeles – $2,200
- New York City – $2,170
- Seattle – $1,990
- Austin – $1,830
- Washington, D.C. – $1,790
- Dallas – $1,470
- Phoenix – $1,470
- San Antonio – $1,320
- Houston – $1,290
The current national average rent for a two-bedroom apartment is $1,348.
The October decline offsets what has been a major increase in the past year: In 2022, rents are already up by a total of 5.9 percent, compared to 18 percent at this point in 2021.
