Should I move to North Scituate or stay in Austin?
The unemployment rate is 3.9%, which is pretty low. Average temperature is around 51--F, so expect cold winters. Homes are going for about $771,000 on average. The weather takes some getting used to. What would you do? The suburbs are where most families end up. Property taxes are high but you get good services. I'd say it's better for families than young singles. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. The parks and outdoor areas are a huge plus.

Public transit is average here. You'll probably need a car for most things. it's improved dramatically in recent years.

Bought a house here in 2016 and I have mixed feelings honestly. Property values have gone about the same since then.

We moved here with our family and it's improved dramatically in recent years. Schools in West area are surprisingly good. Kids love it here.
