Review of Austin, Texas


I Love Austin, TX!
Star Rating - 4/8/2010
I moved here to Austin from Baltimore, MD in 2002, and I have to say this is the best place I have ever lived! Yes, I have allergies, but it is all worth while to be able to raise my children in a friendly, fun and beautiful place! People are friendly, there is always something to do, live music to hear every night of the week! There is some traffic, but nothing like I experienced living in Baltimore. I was amazed when I moved here, that if you use your turn signals while driving, people will actually let you over! I also love that there are a lot of walking trails and the parks are gorgeous. If you are a friendly person who wants a great place to live, come on down!

Love it. Sounds like what I want. So is every county in Austin some what like you described? We're from the Caribbean but currently live in New York City. We want to find that island feel somewhere around us too.
