Ah, the opinion of people from LA who have spent little to no time in any city in Texas.

Many people in Texas like Austin but laugh at how Louisiana people jizz over it. Yall overrate it to the point even Austin people get annoyed.

I moved to Texas from Nola a year ago. Cleaner, safer, better in every way for me except traffic. I was in Nola this week and naturally just drove by the crime scene of a double homicide. Just another day in Nola.


So you're comparing one city to the entire state of Texas? That's just dumb. You act like Texas is 100% crime free. Parts of NOLA are ridiculously dangerous but I can bet I'm way safer in Watson, La. than you are no matter where you live in Texas.

Just drove rush hour to north austin for fingerprinting (CC Permit) and I find the reports I the traffic to be unfounded. It was built up too much.

And I prefer liberals to gangbangers, and I like these libs. Not the corrupt hypocrite Southeast type, not the pretentious kind found elsewhere. I just like everything about Texas...except the NOLA element of Houston and their bullshite tolls.

This

I spent most of my developmental years in La and graduated with two degrees from LSU, but once you live in other parts of the country it really makes you sad to realize how poorly run La is at the state and local level. I haven't returned since graduating, and I've lived in three other states since then.

I love to visit, but I'm not sure it's the smartest decision to work/live in La for my wife and I right now.

You don't fully realize how shitty the state of Louisiana is until moving away for a bit. Congrats to you, FoxMulder, for leaving for greener pastures

It was in response to the lamentation of all those tolls in Houston. I haven't paid a toll in Houston in 5 years and I've driven everywhere.

Most of them are on the outside of the city, like Austin. Do you need a map?

I was comparing Nola to where I live now, which is in Texas. The Woodlands if you require the place.

I don't know if Watson is safer than Woodlands, but I know I don't want to live in Watson.

if those 16 points are important to you then yes its better. New Orleans is one of a kind i can go to Seattle and get a bigger Austin.
You can't get New Orleans any wheres elsebut New Orleans. You can get the stinch from china town in NYC but not the same people. There is only one New Orleans!
