re: Austin Very Unfriendly and Unjust - 2/23/2010
You are correct that stereotypes are incorrect, but I still beg to differ on some things you have said. It's not that people in NYC are unfriendly, it's that it is so fast paced that most people there do not take time to stop, breath, look around, and smile and say hello to the people walking past them. It's a different life style than Austin, or most of TX. However, IMHO because so many people from the north have moved to TX, it has changed what TX stood for. There are a lot of rude people, and they are not from here! I think you have a biased exaggeration in the area dealing with crime and your apartment. The teachers salaries vary depending on district. Do your research, TX has some of the highest paying teacher salaries. Most first year teachers start between $40 and $46 with a bachelors. BTW where in Austin did you live? Every PART of the city differs.
