Austin Texas or Houston Texas?
Hi everyone , I was going to buy one of the investment on Houston Texas , now one of my friend who loves to travel told me, she think Austin Texas is better than Houston, specially weather wise. But she is not on real estate. I did research Austin seems has lower property tax then Texas? I could be wrong.
Any advice which property is better?
Thank you!

Austin = a better place to live
Houston = a better place to invest.
Oddly, there is an inverse relationship between places to live and places to invest. San Diego (where I live) is the best place to live IMO. But a terrible place to invest.
