I'm considering moving from L.A. and am trying to determine where I might like to live. I miss seasons and the cost of living here is insane now. I'm considering Austin, maybe Nashville, or elsewhere.
Regarding Austin, I'd like to know more about the following:
Temperatures / seasons. Do you HAVE seasons (i.e. an AUTUMN???) and how humid does it get? Comparable to Arkansas?
Where are the best areas in Austin to live. Is it all flat, or is it diverse with hilly areas, too?
I know it's a big high-tech growth area, but what about other types of job -- say entertainment industry? Live music capitol, I know, but jobs?
Property taxes high/low/average.
Things to do. Musically -- all genres (including REAL rock?) or leaning toward country/western/other?
Diversity -- more "melting pot" or traditional middle America?
I want a place where there are things to do I enjoy, but that isn't such a rat race. All information, advice and suggestions welcomed.
Thank you.
