I've lived and worked in many places, from shortest to longest duration: London area, Stockholm, and Munich Marin County in the SF Bay area (my family lives in Sonoma) Dallas, Texas Boston, Massachusetts Des Moines, Iowa Detroit, Michigan Austin, Texas I'm retired and I could live wherever I choose; I liked all but one of these cities--Austin is where I decided to remain. I like the weather more than most of the places I've lived, there is a top-ten CS grad school, and my friends are fun and very interesting (some from California). My California friends hope that Austin won't go the way of San Francisco.
