No car? You are screwed. 0.5 rating By Sweaty ( Feb 05, 2015) Don't move here. Local government is corrupt. It's expensive to live here too. Anything you need or want, you have to go to Austin. Might as well live there. It's also cheaper there. I loathe living here and am planning to move as soon as I can. I am a 63 year old senior citizen. ...Read More Listen to your elder. This town has more wrong with it than right. I wish I could come up with just one nice thing to say but I cannot lie. This is a dead zone. Save yourself. This town is a good example of how NOT to do things. Read Less
