When I think of Houston I think of hideously high humidity, no zoning laws, and roaches the size of SUV's.
And traffic. 
Austin's gotten so big and chock full of "foreigners" (non-Texans), it's completely changed the character of the city.
Plus the traffic is ghastly.  | Yeah, but what about Ft. Worth? | From what I remember, the traffic is ghastly, but the roaches are only about the size of an economy car, so's it's a tad more tolerable.  |
Traffic wasn't a treat by no means and I suppose it's gotten worse since 1981. I used a pellet gun to bring down the roaches...kidding.
I loved my time in Ft. Worth, but my perspective is colored by being a seminary student the whole time, working full-time and going to school full-time, having our first daughter, fellowshipping with a wonderful group of Christians, etc. It was a wonderful time in our lives.
But these are wonderful times for my wife and I too.
