Anyone here live in the Eastern outskirts of Austin?
Another point Steve made is fact that Houston's criminal courts are baked up so very far. Part is die to the size of Houston compared to Austin. I believe Houston is like the nation's 3rd largest city maybe. Part of the back up is due to the utlra Liberal city management. It is pretty pitiful when a perp is arrested for murder, then out on a pretty small bail and a few weeks later arrested for another murder. I know, innocent until proved guilty! I don't remember if he was released the second time for another bail or not!
I am by no way saying where people should live.
