Austin is probably the only truly blue area. SA, Dallas and Houston are blue in the city proper but are completely surrounded by far more conservative burbs.

Speaking for SA the only place you will find pro-Hillary signs and bumper stickers are in town. Once you exit the city limits, especially North, you can still find Hillary signs - but they are the ‘Hillary for Prison 2016’ type.

N and NE Dallas is decently Republican, but not necessarily conservative. And once you're out of the city, 5-10 min north on 75 you run through Collin County, which is one of the most conservative counties in the country.

N Austin, Round Rock area used to be pretty conservative (there's still pockets near my grandparents), but most of Austin's pop growth has been much more liberal city-slickers. Esp compared to Collin.
