moving to Austin, TX | culture, people, lifestyle, cost of living

philly and austin are quite the different cities, from the culture and people to lifestyle and cost of living - but I've been loving the changes so far. Are you thinking of moving to Texas? Are you thinking of relocating from the east to the south?

Considering relocating to Texas as a New Yorker and this video as well as your Dallas vid were so helpful! 🙏🏿

Gotta say, this was a nicely laid out vid. Watched the whole thing in one sitting no distractions, i know that sounds odd, but crafting a thoughtful dialogue like this without bloat takes some skill. As someone who's lived in Lubbock, Houston, and Queens NY, i get your viewpoints. I've never been to philly, but i know it has similarties to NYC. Id be willing to bet the best parts of Philly are better than the best parts of Austin, and i think this applies to most of the NE metros. That being said, your peace of mind, and financial room for error is probably much better in either of the Texas metros. If Austin or certain parts of Houston could be picked up and transported to the east, near NY, chefs kiss. You mentioned the heat in Austin, hows the weather in Philly? And would you ever go back to a north east city?

thank you so much for your kind words. totally get it, with our attention spans nowadays I also appreciate when I can just focus on one thing! the east definitely has its perks, and I love the larger melting pots that east cost cities bring. Philly has 4 seasons - so it's perfect for those who need that. I won't be in the south forever but the main reason I'd live in the east again is to be close to family :)

Did you do an apartment tour yet?
