We stayed 8. Moved just outside Austin in 2016. By 2018, the neighborhood doubled and traffic tripled. The pandemic absolutely destroyed the neighborly facade. Then the last few summers hit peak heat and that was it. Our 2.5 acres with a $12k playground castle was all but unusable most of the year. And the people were becoming more and more cruel. We left for New England. The weather is much better and so are the people. I won't go back to CA. I spent most of my life there but it's not the right home for my family. We're much happier here.

Cruel in what way?
