Dallas - no state income tax, more affordable rent than the other cities, great night life, good weather 9 months out of the year (July-Sept is miserably hot... but then again pools and lakes are abundant). Also, if Austin is a choice, it’s a fantastic city (music, food, outdoorsy activities).

@KPMG OP not necessarily. I had a friend from Texas interview at PwC LA. Her inflation difference was 8% (and we all know LA is way more expensive than 1.08x Texas COL). She tried to negotiate (lol I know) and the recruiter said the demand from students for offices in high COL cities was high, so they didn’t have to match salaries after adjusting for COL.
