So Stephanie Klein isn’t the only one moving to Austin … my father and stepmother are moving there too, from Wilmington, N.C. (I grew up in Massachusetts, but they’ve been living there for the past few years). My father was laid off from his job at the start of the year and hasn’t found anything new in Wilmington; it’s a nice city but without much industry. They chose Austin mostly I think because my stepmother’s parents live there. I’ve never been.
I’m curious about the place too. Road trip! (Just kidding…that takes too long even for me.)
Austin is probably the only place in Texas I’d ever consider moving back to… great music & cultural scene, and lovely hilly surroundings. Very cool place.
