From so.cal, where would you live in texas ? Austin or dallas? |
Travel Info I am coming to visit texas this week. need to make a choice Austin {less tornato activtiy} but Traffic[ i35] I or dallas I hear about ICE Storms. and more tornatos, which city? Travel Tips It depends on what you are looking for....Austin is very eclectic and known for its music scene....people like to refer to it as the "Live Music Capital of the World" and more recently people have chosen to use the slogan "Keep Austin Weird" ...I think they are talking about preserving the local music culture and businesses the way they are, unique. I suggest you visit 6th Street to get a real taste of what Austin is about. Austin also has the University of Texas. Austin is also known for being a big party town. You've also go the Colorado River that runs through there...(great for tubing and rafting) and it is a hop and a skip from San Antonio. Dallas is bigger and more populated....it is right next to Fort Worth...both are so big and growing so fast that most people just refer to it as the Dallas/Forth Worth Area....plus you've got the surrounding areas...I know so many people that live in Dallas, but do not actually LIVE in Dallas, per say. Fort Worth is known for its Stock Yards with shops, restaurants, night clubs, rodeos, stock shows, historical landmarks and events. You've got Denton, just north of Dallas that has the Texas Motor Speedway, if you are a NASCAR fan....DFW International airport....Canton Trades day, the biggest shopping event in Texas (happens once a month) is not too far away...and you are a few hours from all the casinos in Shreveport, Louisiana. Dallas has the University of North Texas in Denton and many, many more colleges. Others Austin, Dallas you have to drive to far to get away from the aholes. Dallas we are the best city in Texas we also have THE BEST shopping in Texas! Austin is small and the only thing they have down there is the Music and THAT IS IT!!!Dallas we have everything it is also a fun city dont let anyone lie to you!!!! AUSTIN! dallas to live, austin to visit, if youre judging by weather don't do it its unpredictable. Dallas!!!! I am from the DFW area and now live in San Diego because of my husband's job and I hate it here! You will love Texas! So much to do and people are way nicer in Texas than in Cali! I'd definitely go with Austin. It's a much nicer city, with lots more cultural activities, not as hot as Dallas (despite being further south), and fewer rednecks per capita. Traffic in Austin isn't that much different from that in Dallas, especially when you consider that Dallas is the intersection of I-35, I-30, and I-20! Whoever said above that Austin was small must not have been there in the last 25 years or so; the Austin metro area has about 1.4 million people - not as big as the DFW metro area, but certain not "small" by any standard that I understand. |
