I chose Dallas, Houston, and Austin. I think Austin would be the most home at Austin since I live in Charlotte. I think I would really like Houston. It has good southern culture and nice internantional flair to it. Dallas because it's a big city.

I choose Dallas/Fort Worth and Houston.

I work for the airlines and I have to have a major hub airport with nonstops to every corner of the globe. DFW and IAH provide that, no where else does in Texas.

I also need internationalness and diversity. Dallas and Houston have that.

Austin, San Antonio, El Paso, etc. are all great cities with alot to offer. But those are the most important things to me.
