I live in Austin. There's "Austin", meaning the actual city limits, parts of which are getting more expensive (although still a fraction of SV prices). Then there's the Austin area, large parts of which are half the cost of central Austin, itself half the cost of SV. There are also still low-income, low-cost parts of literal Austin, which I think has not been true in SV for a while (although I haven't lived in SV since 1992 so I could be wrong there).
