You should live here if you have no need to pay the high prices around downtown Austin, or live by all those liberals. You'd prefer to live in a quiet subdivision in the suburbs. The fact that this area has a low crime rate is a big motivating factor, plus the schools are really good. You or one of your family members may have a job with one of the big corporate employers of this area and won't have much of a commute at all. Or you are of a mindset that a 45-minute commute to downtown Austin isn't that bad.
