Austin Question
I am going to Austin next week to look at houses. I would like to move there at some point for several reasons even if I just bought a rental unit for the next 1-3 years. Do any of you planet members know a lot about Austin as in the best places within the city to live and why? Any insight is greatly appreciated. Thanks is advance.

Trust me, when I move out of this shithole I won't be voting for the same policies and nonsense this place embraces. That said, while I have lived here for 20 years, I don't consider myself a Californian at all. I was born and raised in Missouri, and my wife is from Pennsylvania. It is what it is.

Yep. When I was in the Army and at Fort Hood - it was well known that Austin was the most liberal city in the state. That was in the late 70s and it still is....

I am trying to get a away from the Marxist movement so that is no selling point.

at least 30% of Californians have political views much more in line with the majority of Texans.. I think that number is growing, too.

There is this very common misconception that the entirety of California are Socialist/Communist Ultra-Leftist #hashtaggers. They fail to realize that outside of the Coastal Areas and Large Cities, California is predominantly conservative. And if the OP is not that way, that's just fine. He will fit in either way in Austin Texas.

I'm far from being a liberal slacker bro. I don't want to change anything about Texas

I have a rental house in New Braunfels, which is closer to San Antonio but you could probably commute to Austin, Theoretically. I really like the area. My wife also has family in that area, so it's a possible landing spot for us as well.

The entire area between San Antonio and Austin along I-35 is growing rapidly.

We were in Dallas for the World League Texas Regional Jiu-Jitsu championships which my son was competing against. We were in Dallas for no more than 30 minutes when my son said everyone is so nice here. We were there for a few days and he even said if we ever moved this would be a good place. I have to get away from all these taxes ASAP, they are absolutely killing me.

You might want to live close to one of the following clinics so you have quick access to all of the vaccinations you need:
