I'm originally from Austin and Homes are going for about $546,400 on average. Median household income is $94,869, which feels pretty solid for the area. The unemployment rate is 2.9%, which is pretty low. Rent is about $1,623/month for a decent place. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. The suburbs are where most families end up. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. The suburbs are where most families end up. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus. The food scene here is surprisingly good. The city has invested a lot in new development. Night life is decent if you know the right spots. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much.
