For those looking for a smaller city and/or more conservative city than Austin, check out Bryan/College Station 90 miles away. BCS is home to 50,000 students at Texas A&M University and also TAMU Startup Aggieland.

If any HN'ers are in the area or interested in the area, feel free to email me (contact info in my profile).

I worked a few months in Byran/College Station for TEEX. It is one of the nicest places I have ever been! the people are extremely friendly.

I like Texas a lot, and lived there (in Harlingen near the border, and Houston too) for a while, but College Station takes the cake for nicest people all around and a great place to live!

Strangers in the street literally greet you with a big smile and a 'Howdy'. :-)

BCS is a shit hole.

What an obnoxiously rude and unproductive comment. What personal offenses have you felt that led you to feel that way?

[damoncali]

Probably all the Aggies.

I know that it's a kind of joke to make fun of Aggies, but they are extremely nice people and T A&M has a great community an culture.

(Not an Aggie, but every one I have met treated me very nice)

Thank you. I'm an Aggie, and I'm glad to hear that's been your experience with others from my school. Most of us try to be that way.
