There’s no way living in Austin is more expensive than the Bay Area
No fricking way

Not everyone is in a position to make $1m selling a house to be torn down because the land is worth far more than the house on it.
That’s a thing in Cali that doesn’t really exist anywhere else outside possibly Manhattan.

Agreed. Great part of the lake, good fishing, nice and quiet.

Maybe he was importing South Indians to make his meals so he could keep up his lifestyle.

That gets help from the occasional hurricane that damages or destroys the current home.

Our kids complained most about the PE and music teachers (aren't they supposed to be the fun ones?). We heard stories about kids running laps or missing recess just because they didn't sit "criss-cross applesauce." Who thought of taking away recess? And it seemed the more ignorant the coach or teacher, the more he insisted on being addressed as "Y'Sir" — which is still the norm, even in Austin.
There was a massive emphasis on conformity that was good for teachers, bad for kids. I went to read to my kindergartner's class and felt like I'd landed in a dictatorship. They had aides making sure all of the kindergartners faced forward while marching in line to the cafeteria. Kindergartners.

Exhibit A was the dad (also at a kids flag football league) wearing the "Don't move to Austin" t-shirt, a play on "Don't mess with Texas." Let me get this straight, I uprooted my family, moved across four states, and that's the welcome I get?
Entitled, much?

It is great going to these places like Austin and Denver listening to people lecture and speak out on acceptance and diversity, and you’re walking around seeing carbon copies of the same basic white hipster everywhere. There is a serious lack of self awareness though
Imagine this guys shock we he runs across the gulf coast right wing Vietnamese

he's right about the cedar fever
and even with Austin being Austin it is Texas so yes the suburbs are conservative compared to CA
all the rest of that is whining..tons of outdoorsy things to do at State Parks..just no snow

Asians are about surpass whites in majority race in San Francisco. It's nearly split right now. We'll see in the new 2020 census.

Cali guy here and this guy sounds like whimp. Hope he stays in Texas.
Yes Cali is expensive, politics are wacky but being able to go from beaches, to national parks to wine country to mountains in 4 hours is pretty awesome.
