"I moved my family from California to Austin and regretted it. Here are 10 key points."

Article
Moral of the story
It would take a lot of money to buy a "California-like" lifestyle in Austin. If you're moving to Austin, make sure it's because of the things that it offers (downtown lifestyle, BBQ, football, live music, nice houses, professional opportunity) and that you won't miss the things you're leaving behind (good weather, public spaces, etc.).
It was an expensive mistake, but my family and I now see California in a completely new light. We feel very fortunate to be living in the Bay Area.
You're welcome.

I made that joke before reading the article but that’s literally one of his points.

Everyone is going to clown him but Austin’s weather and surrounding area is awful compared to the Bay Area.

I hope this keeps more of those CA figs out of Texas.

That guy and his family are giant vaginas. Most of what he complains about could be learned by reading the Austin wikipedia entry.

Did he move there having never visited the place?

Jesus, that guys bitches a lot.
Bitches about Austin not being friendly. The unofficial motto of CA is "Welcome to California, now go home". Doesn't get much more unfriendly than that.

Embarrased to say I read all of that. 80%+ of his whining diatribe is pure nonsense.
