Not sure if this is sarcasm, but obviously this is not a valid comparison given the population size.
OTOH, Texas and Florida are both a fraction of a population compared to the sum of NY + CA + MA + IL.
By the way, even the states you listed (not nearly growing as fast as TX/FL) are still building more per capita than the NY / CA / MA / IL.
