I've lived in all three. DFW, Houson, and currently in Austin. Austin FTW!
Houston pro's:
Awesome car scene! some of the best street races I have ever seen!
Gulf Greyhound Park drift events
Great tuner support with performance shops and parts suppliers
Some cool people
intuitive road system
Lots of job opportunities in any field
Houston con's:
TRAFFIC!!! no seriously, it sucks major dong
crime
more shitty people than cool people
Did I mention traffic?? cause it sucks
Heavy police presence that is pretty much worthless for anything besides giving you tickets
Dallas pro's:
job opportunities
Some cool city highways to haul ass on.
Descent music scene
Good Tuner support with shops and parts
Dallas Con's:
pretty much everything else
stuck up elitist crowd (no offense to you dallas folks... just an observation)
Austin Pro's:
LOTS of really nice people
really laid back atmosphere
lots of diversity
F1 track coming soon (maybe. read recent news)
Like women? Austin has a wide variety of gorgeous lady's
TONS of outdoor activities (greenbelt, Texas Hill Country, rock climbing, kayaking, rivers, lakes, and much more)
Some really really amazing roads to drive (limecreek, Spicewood springs, etc)
Central to the other noteworthy Texas cities
Very open minded
Great music scene
Lots of really good bars/clubs
Lots of job opportunities for any field
great economy
Austin Police have always been friendly to me
Austin Con's:
Car scene is a bit lacking but there.
Road system... WTF?
Traffic can get a bit frustrating (still not as bad as houston or dallas if you stay off I35)
more than our fair share of shitty drivers. Yup. Lots of em
Lot's of college kids
Not a whole lot of Tuner support but what we have is excellent (MZM, Boost Logic, etc.)
Summary:
IMHO, Austin blows any other city in Texas out of the water. The people, entertainment, beer selection, women, fun roads, jobs, housing market, outdoors activities. All great stuff
I will personally never live anywhere else in Texas.
