Is that blue box in North Texas not Dallas? It's an even darker blue than Harris County (Houston). People can assume all day long, but you cannot deny these results. Sorry, the city & county of Dallas leans to the left. Period. Sadly, Dallas is now a Republican's whipping boy like Chicago is thanks to the Fire & Police pension fiasco.
Regardless, the OP is concerned about the SoCal "Kardashian lifestyle," not so much politics.

You'll have to find another city to compare Dallas to, or else he will only be cemented further into his misconception.
Generally Dallas is one of my least favorite large cities, but it does have a good sized financial industry. It's probably the best mix of affordability and decent job market of your three. Tampa is cheap, but the job market isn't great and the pay scale is low. Austin is my favorite city of the three, but it is also the most expensive and finance isn't a big sector of the economy. So, go for Dallas.
