I can definitely understand where you are coming from and from a financial standpoint, it is difficult to argue against your statement. I know a lot of people can't stand Los Angeles but for me, it is a perfect fit (if I was married and/or had kids to worry about, I would flip it the bird and stay in Texas unless I was making close to 6 figures).

I assume you are asking me. You don't recognize them? The one with the river is obviously Austin. Can't mistake that for anyplace else. The rest are Texas Hill Country. Nice huh?
