Austin is the perfect place for companies that are expanding administration, finance, operations, legal, marketing etc. Talented individuals with specialist skills now have the freedom to be anywhere. All of this is a good thing.

I completely sympathize with the personal assistant, accountant or support agent (normal commodity jobs) that has a family and is forced to live on the SF peninsula and commute on the 101 each day back to their crummy home that is extortionately priced because they have to compete with the salaries of CEO's and VPs who live a few miles away.
