    That’s because Austin is run by democrats and the crime is rampant.

      My mistake; I should have been more specific. The fear for themselves and/or their family members was related to the political climate and inability to get healthcare.

        Once again Austin is run by democrats. It’s a scary place to be because they don’t respect law and order. I go in a frequent basis and the city is a scary place. That’s what happens when you defund the police.

        For technology workers, I don’t know why there would be an issue getting healthcare. If you’re talking about abortion, that’s a small part of healthcare.

          Ah. I can see this conversation risks becoming uncivil and I’d rather not, so… Later.

            Nothing uncivil at all. Everything I’ve seen points to time and cost of living as being the reason for leaving. I’ve not seen claims of people people feeling “unsafe” because it’s a red state and I don’t know why healthcare would be an issue compared to any other state. Texas has some the leading hospitals in the nation.

            If you have a cite for your claims, I’d gladly read them.
