[We vs us]

I'm an Austin newbie. I moved here less than two years ago with the hotel brand that I was with at the time to work at a local hotel they'd recently purchased. I'm in sales, fwiw. I've switched brands and switched hotels, but have remained in Austin. I'm an older (43) emigre, have kids and a spouse, don't do the festivals or the bars, but am finding it to be very much a worthwhile place to live, even for an adult. A little hot, though.

I've lived in a bunch of different places: Fayetteville, AR, Chicago, Tulsa, Louisville, now Austin. Each one of them had an online community of folks tracking and discussing community development, real estate, buildings, etc. I've hunted that group of folks down in every city, and have never been disappointed. Sometimes it dovetails with what I do, but other times I just have an interest in it. I was the kid who played Sim City relentlessly, endlessly when I was a kid, and whatever was underlying that is the reason I'm here.
