Ex-New Yorkers who are now living in ATX—how was the transition? Anything you had a harder time with than you thought? Already missing all my favorite restaurants, being able to walk basically anywhere, and as shitty as it could be, public transportation.

It was really hard! The first year was pretty brutal for me, especially as a native New Yorker. What helped was when I stopped trying to compare ATX to NYC, because it’s not and nor should it be. As it happened, my core group of friends now are NY-ex pats so it’s like we have a little support group. I’m here if you want to commiserate :)
