Originally posted by glen View PostBurnt- downtown areas of Houston and Dallas are better than Austin now. New Orleans downtown district is better than Austin. Austin has been destroyed both in safety and beauty by all of the feral citizens that the city government is supporting. Sure all cities seem to have a handful of tents etc set up. Last count I got about the big camp at Congress/ Cesar Chavez- 287 tents. That is 287 tents in the greenbelt next to where tourists come to look at the bat colony. Its bad- But I agree- the outlying areas of Austin (Greater Austin) area is still best area of Texas for multiple reasons
I tripped out driving down Cesar Chavez the other day. Hopefully they start to clean that up.

My kids live on the outskirts in the Round Rock/Cedar Park area. I spend about half of my time with them and the other half in Robertson county. I've learned to just exploit the Austin area for the good it has to offer and avoid the non-sense as best as i can.
But i can tell you when i get back to my rural living, i can breathe and relax much easier.

Round trip to central Austin from Llano of 72 miles used to take two hours. Yesterday it took me four hours, with a gas stop. On each trip, new traffic lights pop up, with a five minute sit at each light that is red. More subdivisions keep tying in to the road system, and the clogging gets worse. More people, roads can't keep up. Parking pretty tricky as well, not to mention scary traffic.

We like it here. I always wonder why do people still go to 6th street? There are a lot of areas that are more fun and nicer.

Houston and Dallas are no doubt worse than Austin as far as trash and crime. The greater Austin area is twice as good as the DFW metroplex. You couldn't pay me enough to live within 100 miles of the Houston area. Obviously Austin is being screwed up from all the liberals moving in, but its still a way nicer city compared to Dallas and Houston. Don't forget, Dallas and Houston have been controlled by the democrats for decades. Some people pretend that Dallas is still like it was in the 90's when Chuck Norris roamed the streets as Walker Texas Ranger.
