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."
"According to the 2010 United States Census, the racial composition of Austin was 68.3% White (48.7% non-Hispanic whites), 35.1% Hispanic or Latino (29.1% Mexican, 0.5% Puerto Rican, 0.4% Cuban, 5.1% Other), 8.1% African American, 6.3% Asian (1.9% Indian, 1.5% Chinese, 1.0% Vietnamese, 0.7% Korean, 0.3% Filipino, 0.2% Japanese, 0.8% Other), 0.9% American Indian, 0.1% Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander, and 3.4% two or more races."

The main reason Austin is no longer a nice place is because of the Californians who moved there. They have changed many things there, including the cost of local living. Anytime you crowd people in a tech rich area, you're going to create a demand for housing. That's what happened in the SF Bay Area. Can't you make the connections? The valley in California is also suffocatingly hot in the summer. And it's a long valley. Those people who left the bad things from Cali are voting the same way that created the dire situations in their former state.
Alot of people are just waiting for house prices to drop alot but I don't see that happening anytime soon
And with this logic in mind, the “right time” was yesterday… (or 10 years ago)
Housing will dip, or stagnate. Federal reserve has stopped printing money this year which it did for past 15 years. Carried housing to new heights
Can you imagine plus with having Car Paymets how can you expect to buy or save when you have car payments
2024 be ready
Texas needs to chill about weed. It hurt nobody ever. Texas is about freedom. Let us smoke weed.
Thanks, man, really useful
Happy to be of help!
I will say one other thing: I dont find Austin laid back anymore. The Austin I grew up outside of was very laid back, but now I personally find Houston much more laid back.
it can't be, too many outsiders have come in
Stopped. Too much intro.......................
After someone from Austin moves from Austin, you realize how pretentious Austin is. The logo, the music, the food. It's a mid, average city at best. It used to be a hidden gem, but now it's just hype.
Okay what's a top city in the United States then, and how is that city superior to Austin?
As someone that has lived in Austin for over 20’years I couldn’t agree more. It used to be a nice little city but those days are long gone. It has lost its charm. Being one of the fastest growing cities and the city wasn’t built for that. It was built to be a college town.
@@kjhuang NYC, surrounding LA areas, Bay Area, Seattle, San Diego, Houston, Miami, Asheville, Reno, Flagstaff, literally a huge list of cities that are better than current Austin, Austin was really good before 2015. Now it sucks & all the people moving here ruined the city.
@@kjhuang establishing a titled top city elsewhere in the country doesn't make Austin better.
Fact: In the 80's and 90's Austin was the place to chill for all liberal Texans. A generational hippie haven. Since then it has become much more commercial, moved away from its more 'harmony' orientation and replaced Joplin/SRV coolness with Extra heaps of Pretentiousness along the way. Is not the same Austin. But I will always love Barton Springs.
100% agree. The skyline was beautiful even five years ago. Now, it's been dominated and destroyed by cheap-looking boxes...
I moved to Houston for 5 years. For the first time visited Austin and I can tell you it suck in all levels compare to Houston food, activities, diversity, cost, events. Was so glad to be back and never again.
I thought the same about Houston. Depends what you’re into and where you went in Austin. Austin in general for city living has a lot of natural vibes you don’t find in many cities. Will agree that the food is overhyped for the most part
Houston is guetto
@@BPbruv Austin sucks admit it. Houston has everything. Liberal hellhole
I agree, but for Dallas too. I grew up in the DFW area, moved to Austin for a few years, but am glad to be back in Dallas. Austin is overhyped in a lot of ways and is lacking in all the things you mentioned.
That's interesting you say that because I was deciding between moving to Austin and moving to Houston in 2016 and I chose Austin. I was so glad I chose Austin a year later when Hurricane Harvey hit. Considering how poor I was there's no way I would've fared well in that.
Real estate will cost $1000/sqft + like those major metros you mentioned. Some places it’s already there despite of course having a much smaller population.
I grown up in the atx rent is too high I went to blackshear
When I was living in Austin, I didn't see much of a shortage of weed 😆
I will say that while I was living in Austin, I was pleasantly surprised by how many water activities there are and how fun they are. No there aren't "real" beaches comparable to those on the coasts (though there are sandy spots in Volente and a few other places) but swimming at Barton Springs and in Lake Travis is in some ways better, because you're swimming in calm and fresh lake water. The biggest downside is entry into the water - gingerly stepping on sharp pebbles or scrabbling over slippery rock slabs - which is why boat parties are so great, cuz you can just jump off the boat straight into the water.
You're not exactly giving me confidence when you say the best way to live in Austin is to not live in Austin.
Frank’s speaking to people like himself. The City of Austin is neither a hellhole nor that weird place of legend. People are different and Austin is great for some people and bad for others. Depends on what’s important to you.
@@jamesdwithrow tell me more about it! I am interested in this particular one because I am looking for a city in Texas that vibrates with me
@@nesmaryful People who use the phrase “vibrates with me” tend to like Austin. I think this video is the fairest I’ve seen. Austin has lots of outdoor activities, even in the city, and a terrific food scene. The weather is difficult and other big cities in Texas have cheaper housing. ruclips.net/video/vlcll2JppXA/видео.html
Video too long, what are the 5 things?
I will talk about this right now. Don’t move here. Our power grid can’t handle it. We don’t want anymore people moving here any way. From a native Texan.
also there is or will be a water shortage soon, Hill country has limited water sources
Good thing it doesn’t matter what you want lmao
How about Mueller and Hyde Park? I’m 34, single and have to move to Austin for work. I’d like somewhere fun with things to do but not overly crowded. I noticed in your video on the Domain you said it was packed and people are always everywhere haha. Thanks!
I live in Muller and it's been overridden quite recently in high-crime. Might not want to get something so close to downtown Austin. You are going to pay a HIGH price.
Thanks for the heads up! I’m still looking. Now I’m considering up by Walnut Creek Park in North Austin.
@@tvbuster you should consider Cedar Park
Mueller is great. If it’s in your budget, consider it. My friends who live there love it.
The recent extremist conservative and religious government is a big problem ignored by most people too, until it's very evident compared to where they come from.
If you're losing sleep at night over something like that seems like you just need to stay in Cali friend..... You're saying the Texas state government is extremist yet people are moving from Cali to Texas in droves. Get the picture.
Stay in your unlivable blue state.
Extremists??? Try California.....
You can ship your goofy self back to California
One truth from a community of Austin Texas ....we don't want you here go home
only come in if you have great job lined up or going to school, otherwise stay home
