A few other reasons to not move here: sky rocketing crime, not being able to walk around downtown and not constantly be hassled for money. But yes, the traffic is awful, the prices are awful, and every where you go there is a long wait. It’s just grown too much too quickly.
Sky rocketing crime? Maybe for austin standards 😂😂😂 i was born in austin, I’ve been residing in houston for like 15 years. Austin used to be cool now its the fake LA. Houston has a crime problem, not austin. Come walk around downtown houston and you’ll realize how great austin is in terms of crime and safety. Anytime theres an explosion in population, crime typically follows.
I feel sorry for all the true born and raised Texans. All these blue voters are moving in and destroying the state. It’s got to be heart breaking. This state will be completely blue in about tens years or less. I’m sorry😢
@@mml1426 not crowded compared to NYC or a lot of the other east coast cities, but when your from rural Midwest in perspective it is crowded. I usually don't complain about because there are worse cities, but I was noting that because she mentioned that in her video.
I was out in Austin last year in the middle of June to scope it out for a possible move and boy you are right, that heat was unbearable, it was crazy. I was considering moving there , the heat I can get used to but what made me change my mind is that the cost of living in Austin has gotten ridiculously high. In just a couple of years cost of living has sky rocketed. I can’t believe Austin is now the most expensive city to live in Texas. It’s astounding.
The main concern is about the people, especially the women - are they entitled or are they open to dating men who are not the best looking, short, or racial minorities?
I am a rarity because I was born and raised in Austin! To be honest it’s so sad to watch the city change the way it has. Not to hate on people that move here but so many people have brought where they moved from culture here and really changed our vibe. We were once a big city but it still felt like you were in a small town. The very first house we bought was 119K and later sold that nine years later for 240K, it is now going for 800K because it is so close to the domain where a lot of tech companies are headquartered in. If you want to buy something larger than what you just sold then you have to look outside of Austin, which is exactly what we did and moved to Georgetown. I think a lot of the old locals moved to smaller towns around Austin because we messed what it wants was. Everyone knew everybody… If you ever want to see if someone really grew up in Austin then ask them ” do you remember who Leslie is?“ if they can tell you who he is and what he used to do then they’re a real one lol Also, something that really helps with allergies around here is finding someone that harvest raw honey within 15 miles from where you live I am taking a spoonful of it every morning! If you have an allergy to Cedar the best thing to do is to barbecue with it at least once a month I need to just start becoming more immune to it. Just some local advice :-). I’m glad that you love Austin as much as I do, that means a lot.🎉
Wow thank you so much for your comment! I completely resonate with all you had to say. It really is a somber feeling watching the old Austin slowly disappear. And thank you for the allergy recommendations!! A little hair of the dog always does the trick doesn’t it?🤍
You have a very southern mentality, where you’re constantly clinging on to the past. Either keep up with the program or remove yourself from it. Move into the outskirts or something. Places change.
Been here since 1997. First time in 25 years without an outage. Now, happening frequently. This city is being held hostage by evil. My property taxes jumped from $2500 to over $6000. Evil leaders driving us out.
I lived in Austin for a very miserable10 years and was so excited to finally move out. If you're playing live music to make a living, go somewhere else. Austin sucks hard.
I moved to Austin 21 years ago. The traffic, crime, homelessness, cost of living, and heat is the worst it’s ever been. It’s definitely changed for the worst and not getting better.
I did a solo trip to Austin for the first time in October 2022, I left the next day😂😂😂😂. Luckily I had all my refunds for the one week hotel I paid for. THE HEAT WAS UNBEARABLE! I was burning! I took a walk downtown / the domain with Uber and all that was just unbearable. It felt strange. The energy was off and I really wanted to move there this 2023.
Life long Texan here, it didn’t used to be like this. It was totally different before the last few years, the people moving here + government ruined this place
Great list but you missed the word "property tax" - it is brutal here. I've been in Austin for 10 years and fell in love with the city - it was welcoming, charming, unique, & weird. With each passing year, the city has greatly changed and has lost all the qualities that made it wonderful & stand out. Its still a fine city but not the city I fell in love with. I hope to leave some day.
Great video! Lived in Austin and can relate to a lot of this - I started making videos like you recently too and found the Blue Yeti Mic helps a lot with audio quality. No worries if you're not concerned about that - feel it could bring out your voice more though. Keep it up!
I spent some time in Austin when I was in the military. Loved SXSW, and I also went to an open air party on the outskirts called Airport. Now I'm thinking about moving there due to a tech company I'm working for. Btw I'm not moving from California, but I'm originally from there, don't hate! 🤣
I was born in Austin in 1987, but in 1992 I moved with my family to Santiago de Chile (my parents are chilean by the way). In 2019, after so many years, I visited Austin for vacations, and during the last days I took the decision of moving here someday. Well, I finally moved here in April 2022 and I noticed some changes. I knew the traffic in Downtown can be awful, but in 2022 I noticed the drivers became more reckless than usual, so I have been very careful when I take a walk and cross the streets. Besides, the public transportation is still very limited, in special when I want to go to Round Rock, Georgetown, Cedar Park or Lake Travis. Yeah! Texas summer is hotter than Chile, but I feel 2023 is being wetter than 2022. And you forgot to mention... mosquitoes! snakes! hammerhead worms! I know Austin is not a perfect city, however, there was something here that made me feel like home when I visited the city in 2019. Cheers ;)
Hola! Soy chilena, vivo en santiago. mis tios chilenos viven en austin y me han invitado para visitar austin, así llegué a estos videos. Me gustaría conversar contigo y compartir experiencias, saludos
Im thinkin of moving to Austin from Florida, I visted a week ago I felt there was more things to do + food was amazing, and a change of scenery (hills, etc.) I been here quite some time like 18 years lol... One thing was the traffic but thats no biggie there some insane traffic here too. Have you been to Florida? if so any differences from TX and FL you see?
Of course there’s going to be changes nothing stays the same forever I don’t think those were good enough reasons to NOT move there but will definately take it into consideration. I’m going to be visiting in a couple months.
Been in Texas all my life and been living in Austin for the past 4 years, it definitely doesn't support a middle class family. Overpopulated, infrastructure & govt services are non-existent due to the understaffed/overworked govt because of extremely low tax rates (and people fighting property tax increases), oppressive heat, and deteriorating natural scenery (pollution), and increasing homelessness. And like you mentioned the original Austin music and art scene is gone now. The city (and really the state) is only serving wealth investors, landowners, and corporations IMO.
Went down to Austin during 2018's SXSW. Crazy thing when I was down there was it was around the time that guy was doing Fedex bombs and leaving booby traps on the side of the roads. They literally told us to never touch anything on the side of the streets. The cops were chasing that asshole down near the Le Quinta inn I was staying at before he blew himself up.
I agree. Austin is not really capable of sustaining this many people so quickly. There is no form of public transportation here so if you don’t have a car, then you’re essentially screwed. The bus system here is extremely incomplete and the train system is nonexistent. There’s one little downtown train that probably has like three or four stops that’s it. And that’s more for the campus area. Keep Austin weird is no longer viable in this city because the corporations are here and the mom and pops locations are closing down so the concept of keep Austin weird was meant for small business owners. Small business owners are struggling. Also the taco truck community here is gotten out of control. Pay just as much as a taco truck as you were going to go into a restaurant with Service. The tipping culture here is astronomically ridiculous. It’s worse than LA or Cali in general. People here want to get tipped for working at a fast food joint. What that’s absolutely crazy. You hand me something from behind the counter, and they expect to give them a tip. Austin is a huge disappointment and a huge hype
Crime is increasing here. Our mail box banks have been broken into 3 times in one year in South Austin. The heat is bad too. Also taxes, insurance, and home prices are still absurd. Planned on retiring here, but may leave for another state when the time comes to stop working.
I have been living in Austin for seven years and it is hot, yes. but once you live there for a while, it becomes an amazing place! Downtown Austin has a lot of people who love our culture. One of our sayings "Keep Austin Weird" is right! It has things like this for a reason! We don't want to be like other cities and States. We are our own people and we love it!
I left Austin last year so i wasn’t stuck paying high rent all year. I moved to Savannah w family even hotter and more drastic economic differences. The poor are MUCH poorer here than Austin. Even Savannah is getting ridiculous w rent. Yes its hot in Austin but dryer heat makes it bearable for me, unlike Savannah. I regret leaving Texas but it’s getting rough everywhere. Oh and good jobs in Austin were hard to find bc of so many ppl. Uber/Lyft apps are flooded w drivers.. its a little harder in Austin in that way.
The weather can be ridiculous anywhere honestly. I’m from and live in Miami Beach Florida and everyone thinks it’s sunny and beautiful…. We’re shocked if it doesn’t rain. Many scary thunderstorms especially if you have pups. I have six and they’re terrified of the thunder 💔 We’re looking to move within the year to a new state so I’m looking at videos of different states and why one should or should not move there
@@NatashaIbrahim I am from San Francisco, CA and have been living there since I was born for the past 48 years. A lot of people move out of the Bay Area after they retire from their professions because of the high cost of living.
It sucks, I moved away from Dallas to get away from Dallas & it just followed me. Luckily I’m leaving the state as a whole when my lease is up. I hate to leave bc I know I’ll never wanna come back.
But still way smaller and way more expensive with no pro team and DFW has the better Airport. Last but not least, Austin traffic is probably worst due to the poor infrastructure. I don’t understand why anyone would live there due to this over Dallas. If your in tech I can see, but anything else, nope! Hill country? Most people just drive through it and visit because 99 percent of people can’t afford to live over there. I can visit from Dallas lol!
I think it’s gotten very safe! It’s really developed a lot and has a lot of young professionals thanks to the oracle campus and cool restaurants and cafes 😊
That´s some interesting news, Natasha. On the other side, a significant part of the Millions who left California ended up in Texas and it´s clear that Austin as the capital is effected/gained many new citizens. Austin is the City you grew up so I can understand that you will always have a special relationship with this place. I have not been flying for 10 years now, for multiple reasons. On the danger I mention it twice, Natasha is a veteran in travelling, I will book some sessions on Colombia with her before I go there.
I am a true Unicorn woman of color and my family were slaves in Travis County. We are tired of all the new comers. We no longer have Southern Hospitality because “ you people” have forced us ‘ people of color’ out of our birth homes. I understood you can not stop change, however, I no longer have smiles and Southern Hospitality for all you new comers.
@@NatashaIbrahim Which Theater In Austin Was Your Favorite? The Fox or The Aquarius Theater? What Was a Better Music Venue The Black Cat or La Zona Rosa? Which Festival did you like Aquafest or Riverfest? Give up the info Austinite.
@@FrankC71 I'm 26. I was not able to go to those venues when they existed. I went to the black cat and la zona rosa - I prefer la zona rosa.

Maybe if you watch the one on my upbringing as a third culture kid you will feel a bit more empathetic to my story and why I consider this place home. Don't just someone based on assumptions.
