Yet,  the Austin weirdness is slowly disappearing as thousands of new
residents flock in every month for the good tech jobs bring created every
month.   The influx is more than the imbedded culture can acclimate.   As
you move away from the downtown and west of campus Austin gets closer to
suburbia everything.

The hikes in property taxes are driving out the start-ups to the smaller
towns in the vicinity.   Still a very nice place to live and go to college
in but changing quickly.

Who knows,  maybe Joe Rogan and Elon Musk can trigger the old time
wierdness.
