I live in austin, from Texas, all my family is here so I’ll never leave
But as a neutral person, the west coast just seems so much better in terms of nature and stuff to do. I get the austin makes sense cause it’s cheaper, but after a few more years of 10+% growth it won’t be
Guess the grass is always greener
- ghaff 5y agoI don't live in either place but have spent a fair bit of time in both. Especially the SFBA but much of California generally seems a more pleasant climate and more options for the activities I like to do.
- igetspam 5y agoLived in the bay for 30 years before heading to TX. We're not staying but that's politics. Not going back to CA either, for the same reason. One thing I never knew about TX is just how beautiful it is. Natives don't seem to notice but it's truly breathtaking in many areas.
- lostandbored 5y agoAs a "native" Texan, whose family has lived in the state for seven generations, it is really beautiful. Especially during road trips as the state changes from east to west. Gonna miss it when I leave.

- ActorNightly 5y agoIm hoping the growth will be stunted by the rest of Texas between the Major Cities. Completely different crowd. Also things like power grid failures are good at keeping things afforadble.
- robotron 5y agoI wouldn't count on rural Texas stunting any growth. It's where the suburbs of tomorrow and current/coming new housing builds are.
- koheripbal 5y agoThe companies see the STATE taxes as cheaper. That's what is driving them there.
