In Austin, I can affordably live in the middle of the city and bike to work, and the specter of having to move to the suburbs to afford hypothetical children isn't there since the public schools are decent. The far fewer walkable neighborhoods make me sad and the summers are probably trying for non-native Texans, but considering the things most people optimize for when choosing a city, it isn't surprising that so many people are moving here.
