re: Great places to live, work & raise a family

Austin is basically BR plus the green belt as far as "things to do" goes

St. Charles, MO.

still waiting for the genius' to tell us all about the fun things in Austin.

and I'm a longhorns fan.

I'm not saying it's the Mecca of the universe or anything, but it makes BR look like a third world country

quote:

---

Lakes, rivers, more food options, more drink options, more music options, SXSW, hiking/biking trails, comedy clubs, better movie theaters, and surrounded by another metro area in San Antonio.

---

Those may not be as high on some people's list on where to raise a family.

he is giving reasons Austin is fun

That's true, but the original post suggested moving in the outside areas of Austin, so you could have the best of both worlds in a growing area. Then someone said there's nothing to do out there which is a wild statement to me. There's clearly things to do out there especially for someone used to living in th 225

Why are we disqualifying the green belt? That seems like a huge bonus of living in that city. Austin is a booming tech city that can sustain businesses that aren't chain restaurants and has a better public transit and traffic situation (not great, but better) despite being a much denser population

Your statement of Austin not being barely better than BR is just ludicrous. They exists on two different planets

Idk what your obsession with food trucks is. I haven't mentioned them one time.

So besides having better scenery, better restraunts, more jobs, more events, and more things to do, and better infrastructure, they are basically the same thing. I guess I would have to agree with that

Next you can tell me how similar San Francisco and Hammond are.

i'm only talking about "things to do". austin barely beats br in that department.
