Not by a ton. I see what they are going for all the time. If you love living in little boxes made of ticky tacky then Austin is the place to be. The President is a fink. |

I think Austin is a really cool city I love their motto - Keep Austin weird I travelled to Austin once just to see a concert Attended Willie Nelson's July 4th picnic Had a blast Of course the Dead were on the program and they came out all wearing Willie's trademark bandana Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

When I was looking in Austin I saw many nice 3 bedroom 3 bath houses for $400k-$500k  I realize it isn't cheap but many of those tech jobs start at $100k with experience many are paying $200k a year. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

Look how close that is to the next house. And this is not even a new development. I see some that are a sea of little boxes, you can probably stand between them and touch both. I am talking half million dollar places. Blow up the houses in Levittown by a factor of three and that is all you have. All over the southwest. The President is a fink. |

I agree that it is not perfect, but for $500k in a good area I wouldn't expect more. In vegas now the 20 year old starter houses (1500sf, 3bd, 2ba) in avaerage neighborhoods are going for $360k. I'm sure EvenBob will tell us that you can get a presidential manison for $250k in Grand Rapids Michigan. Of course, I would rather spend ten times as much to not live in Michigan. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

From what I have seen it is way more a thing to do in the southwest. What I see of houses in these places in the notheast they would just do townhouses. It even extends to strip malls. In the northeast there would be an apron with green as a buffer. In the southwest they do not wast a square inch of land. Almost daily I have to check a house out as I do title. I just cannot imagine living in some of these developments. I guess I did for a few years, but still not as bad as many I see. Miles and miles to the nearest store or gas station. Sea of suburbia. The President is a fink. |

| Gandler Member since: Aug 15, 2019 Threads: 27 Posts: 4256 | President-Elect Joe Biden is officially President-Elect now. Let's see how long people here continue to deny it for (probably the next 8 years, since at least multiple members here still think Obama had a fake BC and was not a legal President the whole time). This is a brilliant day for democracy. President-Elect Biden absolutely tore the opposition in both the popular vote and the Electoral College (official now). Most popular and successful candidate in American history. Which is even more impressive when you factor in that he was running against an incumbent! https://www.nytimes.com/live/2020/12/14/us/joe-biden-trump |

You mean like the libs here the past 4 years saying Trump did not win the popular vote? Chances are the board will be quiet in comparison as we have lives outside of following every move of someone we hate. The President is a fink. |
