That sounds absolutely lovely.

Many of my friends left Austin after graduating only to return later when it became trendy. There are some amazingly smart and attractive women running around this city.

Upon return my friends found they couldn't afford a house in areas convenient to the live music nightlife, the best performing schools, the best places to eat and so on. Now many of them are again fleeing Austin since they can work remotely far away from Austin.

Our mayor made public camping legal and the homeless just mingle around stealing shit, shooting up or smoking drugs, pissing and shitting behind any random object, stealing little kids bikes, panhandling on busy corners. Sigh, it just sucks man. If the dipshits who live here elect another mayor like this one I'm outta here and moving into the countryside. Soooo many good small towns here in Texas where a man can buy some acres and raise a family up proper. My only excuse is I'm waiting for that newest generation of satellite based internet service to come online fully. I can do septic, solar and well water for the rest. But I need that internet to work remotely.
