Hey, I just saw your FFFC! If you have any specific questions on Tx, I can definitely answer them.  We went to visit Austin a few times and loved it there!  We're back in Seattle this week and while it's nice to be back, I'm so glad we made the move!  The cost of living is insanely cheaper.  I know Austin and Houston have pretty similar COL and both are low.  It's sunny/warm year round and the only hard parts are getting used to the summer.  But it stays grossly hot 2 months out of the year, maybe less.  My DH, who grew up here and did not want to move at first, admits how he is glad he did and between the weather, cost of living, and how friendly the people are, he doesn't want to move back.  I can definitely tell you more, I'm just drawing a blank right now.  Feel free to PM me and I can tell you more.  How exciting!!

    I'm butting in here, but just have to say that I love Austin. I lived near there for a few years as a kid and we always went to Austin on the weekends. I just went there last weekend for a fun getaway and it's amazing. It's the only place in Texas I could see myself living, it's like an oasis of awesomeness in Texas. The food is amazing, the music is incredible, and the city has so much going for it!

    Thank you so much! I'm trying to tell myself this will be a good change for a bit in our lives and Austin has a lot to offer. Plus I know the schools are really good there which is a bonus plus the fun stuff in Austin - I'll just miss my parents terribly but they can get to us easily and frequently so we'll just make the best of it if this is what happens.
