About Austin, Texas:

"Austin is the capital city of the U.S. state of Texas, as well as the seat and largest city of Travis County, with portions extending into Hays and Williamson counties. Incorporated on December 27, 1839, it is the 11th-most populous city in the United States, the fourth-most-populous city in Texas, and the second-most-populous state capital city (after Phoenix, Arizona). It has been one of the fastest growing large cities in the United States since 2010. Austin is the southernmost state capital in the contiguous United States and is considered a "Beta −" global city as categorized by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network."

"As of the U.S. Census Bureau's July 1, 2019 estimate, Austin had a population of 978,908, up from 790,491 at the 2010 census. The city is the cultural and economic center of the Austin–Round Rock metropolitan statistical area, which had an estimated population of 2,295,303 as of July 1, 2020, roughly 84% increase from the year 2000. Located in Central Texas within the greater Texas Hill Country, it is home to numerous lakes, rivers, and waterways, including Lady Bird Lake and Lake Travis on the Colorado River, Barton Springs, McKinney Falls, and Lake Walter E. Long."

"Residents of Austin are known as Austinites. They include a diverse mix of government employees, college students, musicians, high-tech workers, digital marketers, and blue-collar workers. The city's official slogan promotes Austin as "The Live Music Capital of the World", a reference to the city's many musicians and live music venues, as well as the long-running PBS TV concert series Austin City Limits. The city also adopted "Silicon Hills" as a nickname in the 1990s due to a rapid influx of technology and development companies. In recent years, some Austinites have adopted the unofficial slogan "Keep Austin Weird", which refers to the desire to protect small, unique, and local businesses from being overrun by large corporations. Since the late 19th century, Austin has also been known as the "City of the Violet Crown", because of the colorful glow of light across the hills just after sunset."

"Austin, the southernmost state capital of the contiguous 48 states, is located in Central Texas on the Colorado River. Austin is 146 miles northwest of Houston, 182 miles south of Dallas and 74 miles northeast of San Antonio.
In 2010, the city occupied a total area of 305.1 square miles. Approximately 7.2 square miles of this area is water. Austin is situated at the foot of the Balcones Escarpment, on the Colorado River, with three artificial lakes within the city limits: Lady Bird Lake (formerly known as Town Lake), Lake Austin (both created by dams along the Colorado River), and Lake Walter E. Long that is partly used for cooling water for the Decker Power Plant. Mansfield Dam and the foot of Lake Travis are located within the city's limits. Lady Bird Lake, Lake Austin, and Lake Travis are each on the Colorado River."

So true my friend, thank you for an honest assessment.

[realdata]

Thanks for the video so another words and Austin is becoming like the city I got away from, Chicago.

You just Saved me a road trip. Thanks pal.

[blifx]

Austin used to be weird because all of the state's rejects would move there from the country towns they didn't really fit in, so it sucks when californians move here and make everyone feel like shit for being different or uncool when that's what everyone moved to Austin to escape.

[omaralvarado]

Just choose somewhere like Leander Texas or even Menard, Texas or even Cedar Park, Texas or hutto, Texas or liberty Hill, Texas but it is true that Austin Texas wasn’t meant for a lot of people the city was built small

[Fairshanks]

Can you talk about or even later do a video about their transit system and what you speculate the development around that will be in the future? If I move there I am planning to live within a 10 minute bicycle ride away from one of the train station for their one and only train line. I am hoping in the future that train will be developed to go faster and be more practical than driving, and hoping that they will continue to develop other rail lines

[omaralvarado]

I also recommend down in Laredo Texas. Life is much simpler. Down in Laredo Texas you could find haircuts for eight dollars.. you got the border right across crossing new into Nuevo Laredo Mexico, quite a very nice place to visit and go and eat out at a restaurant or go home by medicine.

[SmileAustin]

And we/Austin may even have a "seriel killer" too...Rainey St. Ripper is what they're calling "him".

[GeauxTigers]

I’d like to visit Austin just because it’s a dream of mine to go to a Texas Longhorns football game but I wouldn’t live there it’s just way too liberal for me

[hannahl]

I honestly thought this was jared padalecki for a minute and was so confused😅

[oldcopper]

If you like San Francisco, you'll LOVE Austin.

[debishaw]

Lower the property taxes and then it will be more like California….. it’s definitely not as pretty as California…

[wisewisdom]

Just wondering, which city is the better alternative to Austin(if there is) for business/work and just overall life.

[MsHarasan]

Do you know how many transplants come to California? I hope to be a transplant to Texas, very soon.

[stormchaser]

Austin in some ways wants to compete with it's bigger brethren in Dallas and Houston in some ways. Yet in other ways it's just another Texas city that is still trying to keep up with all the people still moving to the state in general. I think I read yet another article that the north Texas area is still the fastest growing in Texas but let's get real, Texas is growing period. Austin in 10 years, will be LA is so many ways...unfortunately.
