Austin is hip and Dallas is conservative.

like

Austin is a very liberal city, especially for Texas. Dallas proper is also liberal. The further you go out to the suburbs from Dallas the more conservative people get. Both are great cities!

Austin is usually better when you’re young and single.

Austin is 3x the price

I can’t speak for Austin, but I would not move to Dallas if I was young and single. You’ll be bored out of your mind, and will struggle with the dating scene

New money is boujee but that old oil money is far from that.

like

Austin is turning into a dump.

Crime, housing costs, traffic, poor city planning & government.
