I am in downtown Austin. My rent is just shy of double that and I only have a 500 or so square foot apartment. I have a hard time believing you moved to something comparable to SOMA.
I'm going to guess you live either more North or South of downtown and have to commute if you work or want to get downtown. Which I think many would agree is not even close to comparable of living in SOMA. Also, if memory serves BART is far superior and actually a legitimate means of transportation. Our transportation situation here in Austin is a bit of a joke unless you live directly downtown.
- enraged_camel 11y agoNot the OP, but I live less than four miles north of downtown Austin and my rent is $800. I have two roommates and we have a 2000 square feet backyard. I wake up every morning to bird's chirping outside my window. It's amazing.
- b3b0p 11y ago4 miles North is definitely not downtown Austin and to me might as well be in Oklahoma, haha. I enjoy being directly in the middle of everything, not having to commute, and no car. I'd much rather pay double, live in a smaller area, in the middle of everything. The last thing I want is a yard, again. Different strokes or something like that, right?
