That's one of the best - if not the best - driving videos of Austin I've ever seen. Austin really is one of the nicest, cleanest, and most beautiful cities in the entire country.
@@thetaleofrain There is no state income tax in Texas. But there is a combined state, city and county sales tax of 8.25%. Property taxes in Austin are very high. I live in a mobile home on a half acre of land in a food desert of Austin and the property taxes run about $2800 a year. In 2010 they were about $600 a year.
When I'm bored from my studies I came here and watch any video of Utah channel, which is actually fresh my mind; focus back what I need to do further with ease.
Austin is beautiful! I enjoyed the 10 years I lived there. I may have missed it... did he drive by the new (at that time) Jenga building? Possibly it wasn't completed yet. Oh, and right at 50 minutes, you see the traffic on I-35, and this is possibly the worst part of living in Austin.
Always amazing videos !! I am Brazilian, seeing your videos is the closest thing to travel-- I can travel from my home , also is a great opportunity to see how US is rich of culture - is a whole world in one country - Also is helping me to choose next city I will visit!! Thx man ( J Utah) - Amazing job!
@@acbc3543 Legal. Eu estou pensando em me mudar para Austin em 2023 como um estudante internacional e depois imigrar permanentemente. Você diria que Austin é uma boa escolha ou recomenda outro lugar?
It just came up to me just now by unknown algorithm! Oh my gosh as soon as I saw thumbnail I'm overwhelmed cuz I've been missing a lot Austin since I came back to Korea even though I lived there only over a year in 2018. Always I wanted go back there. This vedio remind me that time I was in there, so I might visit Austin for a short trip for a week next spring. Thank you:)
I really like your channel because your in different states and driving around and living at these places you go to seems fun but I don’t travel to much so I can look at your channel and see the experimces
Texas is an amazing state, I just don't live there because of the hot weather :) The climate of London already pleases me, if I ever move there, I will definitely choose the northern states, where they are colder.
wow was watching this video as been nostalgic for last years holiday and did not realize, this was shot 2 weeks before I visited .so many good memories
I lived in Austin in the 80's. It is much prettier than what you are seeing here. West and NW Austin is very scenic around Lake Austin and Lake Travis. The hills are breathtaking.
thats great ron. just subbed to your channel and watching your top q&a video (love going to a party with jazz music and a stand up bass). if im ever in the same city your playing, ill make sure to go
Nice downtown & campus. Very clean. Lots of trees. The traffic moves at a nice pace without people being immature or rude. What about the neighborhoods? Downtown Austin looks like a CBD, not very residential.
Austin is a vegan city Im vegan and Im planning moving to Austin next year from San Antonio. My first visiting to Austin was like magic for all the vegan restaurants there. Cant wait to move.
I was French born in Paris and my dream is to come and live in the United States. And as a rather affordable city at the end of the price of living, I may perhaps move to Austin later. After first, I will come to the United States on vacation to see it in person because it is not good to have an idea without having really seen it.
@@sajanaryal6932 Yes but when I wrote this message I was not yet mature lol (Yes in 10 months I matured). So now I would like to visit the US but not particularly inhabited. But it comes back to the same debate. Which city would you recommend me to visit please ? (Price, place...).
@@monolap222 The biggest difference between european cities and american cities is that the european ones emphasize humans over cars. They have much better public transportation systems and are very walkable and bikeable. Most places in the US look identical to each other. Majority of the US is crappy and car dependent and full of ugly and inefficient stroads that give you the highway feeling in every grid. It's true that you shouldn't judge the entire country by looking at one city but if you do some research, most american cities look very similar as they follow the same euclidean zoning pattern. There are only a handful number of cities (some of which you mentioned above) that have similar walkability and transportation system compared to average european cities. But even those are affected by car dependency as they are surrounded by car dependent suburbs and highways literally go through them. Plus you don't find much pedestrianized streets and the roads are almost as wide as highways. Compared to this, european cities have narrower roads, several pedestrianized streets, better biking infrastructure and they contain several alleys that are totally devoid of cars. This is what makes most european cities more livable than american cities.
@@monolap222 I admit I haven't been to Europe but have done a lot of research. I live in the US in Nashville right now and have been to more states than most Americans have, or at least that's what they tell me. It seems like you completely and utterly missed my point about livability and car dependency lol. I don't care if you find most of Europe to be boring. That is totally subjective and has nothing to do with infrastructure. My point is that the European ones emphasize walkability and their public transportation systems are far superior to the US. Look at the infrastructure and city design of Amsterdam, the Netherlands, for instance. The primary method of transportation there is walking and biking. Then comes trams, metro and finally cars as automobiles shouldn't be the primary method of transportation. And while the European countries, Japan, China, etc are building high speed railways to connect their cities, US is still building highways lol. Majority of the US, in my opinion, is an absolute wasteland. Almost all cities have this central compact downtown with some skyscrapers (although some have more parking lots than buildings) and they instantly descend to car dependent suburbia nonsense as soon as you leave the downtown. I suggest you to look up "Not Just Bikes" who talks about underdeveloped american cities and suburbs are.
I lived in Salt Lake City many years !! Austin almost empty streets looks almost the same !! I love San Francisco people always walking in the streets except for the crazy homeless
@@Lejjend832 the mideasterners and hicks I experienced in ATX were horrendous! Changing prices on a whim unless u called them on it...hicks just suck ...
You set it up nice but I don't know about the route.. you went from City to the suburbs back to the city.. you just start from the middle of town and then go spread to the outside
Reminds me of the story of Rip Van Winkle 10,000 workers K2 its Town started working an overnight with Van Winkle had nowhere to sleep and nothing left to eat now with Van Winkle is homeless and only went to sleep overnight😮
That's one of the best - if not the best - driving videos of Austin I've ever seen. Austin really is one of the nicest, cleanest, and most beautiful cities in the entire country.
No wonder it’s the fastest growing city in the country. With over 100 people moving in a day.
*one year later*
I heard there is no income tax in texas, is that right?

Austin is where you move because joe Rogan tells you to, and if you don’t he won’t book you at his club.
I'm in Uganda and I have never been to US but these videos make me fall in love with America over and over

I liked Austin from your videos. Then I applied for a job there and now I'm in Austin lol
Congrats, What job did you apply for?

My god it seems Austin really has a lot of job opportunities...Nice city and if the salaries are good too, no wonder it is best place to live in US...
Traffic is usually way worse!
I love right by west slaughter and i cant sleep because of how loud the cars are.

Where in west slaughter? Isn’t that one of the longer roads?
I was visit in 2016, Austin is very nice.
Nice video thankyou!!👌
This is NOT a typical Austin day on the road. There ALOT ALOT ALOT more traffic. Must have driven on a Sunday morning. Lol!
Beautiful travel bro, wonderful places but this is a 4k resolution image?
1st visualization, like and comment. Thanks J. Utah!
Amazing! ❤️
I just miss my homeland, Austin, where i had some good memories there now I'm in Casablancan Morocco
It looks so beautiful, I come from Germany and love usa.But it sees everything slower than with us from we have on "Autobahn" no speed Limit.
autobahn is full of potholes
Austin looks so cool! 🤘
Looks great what camera do you use? Looks really good 😊
Nice downtown & campus. Very clean. Lots of trees. The traffic moves at a nice pace without people being immature or rude. What about the neighborhoods? Downtown Austin looks like a CBD, not very residential.
I liked seeing the publisher of the Austin Chronicle pass by on 6th street
More Videos!!! pls!! oh! thanks btw for you great work!! #Germany
