I moved out of Austin, Texas because it's pretty awful on rent these days... $2100 for a 1 BR in the Domain... oof.

I mostly lived around the city center in a house until the high rise condo developers came.

Fucking hell, I grew up in NW Hills, are those garbage Domain Apts really $2100 for a 1Br? That's absolutely bonkers!

I like visiting Austin, but after spending time in Boston and NYC Austin is flat out boring and self-centered.

It pains me, but for the past 2-3yrs I candidly refer to my home-town as quote "a shittier less cool version of LA that somehow manages to try harder".
