Hello Team:

I was layoff in mid March and now I'm considering moving to Austin if I found a good job there. Currently living in Katy, TX a suburb west of Houston.

I work in IT (Desktop/Computer support)

I think I'll like to live in the Manor, Elgin or Bastrop areas, Anyone knows how's the commute at rush hour going towards Downtown Austin..?? or will be better to live in Georgetown or Round Rock areas..??

Also how are the property taxes compared with Houston, TX? I pay around $3,000 a year, not even sure if is worth it to buy another house, Wife will like more to sell the house and move to an apartment complex.

Finally..Is it worth it to live in Austin..?? I really like Houston but so far no good job leads, so I need to expand my job horizons.

If Austin is not a good option I'm thinking NM or AZ

Any ideas/advice will be really appreciated.

Thank you very much.
