As someone who moved to Austin from Los Angeles I have to say Austin is a small town. I've live in London, Paris, Athens, Hamburg, Amsterdam, Boston, San Diego, Manhattan and Los Angeles, and Austin is nothing to complain about. All Texans complain about Austin because it's the most liberal city IN TEXAS. Austin residents complain that its getting "so big". A lot of the people who move here from outside Texas just couldn't hack it in a real city, and a lot of the people who move here from within Texas have never actually lived in a city before. What you call traffic is what I used to have to drive through twice a day just to get to the freeway. Austin is like "city life lite".
