So I looked that up online(Since The Hill Country I am not familiar with, just familiar with the major big cities in Texas) There are 25 cities in that area, which one would you pick to live in or are they all good

San Marcos would be a good choice. Hays County. There is a major tho not widely known university there. Formerly Southwest Texas State but now just Texas State.

Also Aquarena springs.

I had a friend in Kansas who was moving to a job in Austin. I told him to check out San Marcos and he did and bought a house there. He had a car pool to his job. He later thanked me for the tip.

Luckenbach is in the Hill Country. Fredericksburg is a popular tourist place with lots of good peaches. But the weirdoes are taking over.

I was kidding about Luckenbach. It does exist but mostly for people to get together, drink and listen to music. I don’t think anyone actually lives there.

Knowing I will catch flak at FR by saying this....but Austin is a great town for a variety of reasons...& it's in the heart of Hill Country

..the job market is more plentiful...it is a pretty town and has much to offer in entertainment, music, the arts, etc....

..yes, it's a college town and leans liberal, but there are fine, upstanding churches and good people there....

..upscale shopping areas, amazing food!, art galleries, beautiful scenery, lush green hills (not arid like other parts of Texas, but don't get me wrong, I love all of Texas)

I have relatives there.
