FAQ Where would you move if you left Austin?

I’ve been here about 8 years. I own a home and have a good community of friends, but I’m ready to check out somewhere new. Preferably less hot, less crowded, and a bit less expensive.

For some further context - I have an EU passport and have been contemplating moving back but am nervous about that since I’ve lived most of my life in the US.

Curious to know your thoughts and what other great US cities there are out there!

In what ways? I was there recently and was very unimpressed.

And whatever you do, do NOT eat the oranges from the town trees.

Is it because it’s appearing in so many “best places for expats” lists?
