What's it like living in Austin?
Seems to be a shitload of tech jobs over there so considering moving.
How is it in terms of:
>cost of living
>things to do
>weather
>crime
>rent
>food
>cost of living
pretty cheap compared to most metro areas, especially if you don't mind the living in the outskirts
>things to do
I don't go out much but 6th street and south congress is where all the fun happens from what I understand. and of course tons of yearly shit like SXSW and ACL if you're into that stuff
>weather
mostly warm year around, gets pretty hot in summer. lots of rain this year
>crime
going down due to all the gentrification
but crime rate has never been that bad here to begin with
>rent
see 1
>food
food trucks are a big thing here
lots of bbq places as well
stay the fuck out we're full
>cost of living
property taxes are $11,000 a year here because of people moving in and hyping the city up causing trouble to us natives
>things to do
camping in mckenny park, adventuring in the greenbelt, playing a few arcade games at the arcade ufo. some pretty cool stuff desu. theres lots more to do than that too if you wanna visit we have hotel space just don't move here.
>weather
hot 100.00% of the time
>crime
just carry a knife because some faggot ass kids or a ghetto ass nigger might pull some sketchy shit
>rent
expensive
>food
magnolia, maudies, torchys, salt lick, county line, thunderclouds, lots of good stuff.

>living in the outskirts
who the fuck wants to sit in traffic for hours to get to downtown

>who the fuck wants to sit in traffic for hours to get to downtown
Because it's cheaper to live there than downtown and there is less crime.

>and there is less crime
ummm no all the crime is either by 6th street or north/south/east side
