And just wanted to say it is becoming more of a shit hole every time I go back (have in laws that are in the area). Dirty as fuck, homelessness everywhere, businesses shut down, everyone wearing fear masks even if they were outside exercising. Just a total joke of a town. It’s obviously been on the decline for awhile now but it just a complete embarrassment at this point. I live in a north Houston suburb that was literally just voted the number 1 town to live in the U.S. and it is night and day (and that’s saying something because Houston has its problems too but Austin is just a complete embarrassment nothing else in Texas is on that level lol). The peak of the visit was getting our windshield washed at a stoplight. That is some straight 3rd world country type shit and I have never seen that in Texas and I have lived my entire life in this state and been all over it. Anyway just thought I would share because despite all this, there are still so many people acting like Austin is still the coolest place ever. So I had to share it with people that live in the same reality as me. Which is getting harder to find every day.
