You are talking out your *** as usual. I have lived in the rurl areas all my 75 year old life. Sure there are drugs, teen pregancies, alcoholism, balh blah blah anywhere and everywhere there are PEOPLE and crazy people sometimes with a desire to kill, BUT the difference is the sheer nmber of people in urban areas make all a bigger problem. Cops in Houston are overworked and yes underpaid, and just what 2 years ago the idiots there were screaming to defund the police. George phoebia. Gangs are rampant. Why? 90% of them came over illegally to better pickens.
Funny how this county has not seen a murder in 40 odd years and he killer was just passing thru.
Yea Austin is a high dollar city. Plenty good to say about it IF you want solve there. Plenty of reason many people chose NOT to live in Austin or Houston of N.Y. City.
You will never convince me. Watch the local Houston news tonight if you can, you will see it is a chithole.
