It seems to be the American way. Just about every city in this country is filled with ugliness, mostly outside the inner city. The freeways are cluttered with strip mals, billboards, big box stores, etc.. People think they're not going to see that in Austin, because it has such a good reputation, but I-35 and U.S. 183 in Austin are just as hideous as what you find in other metro areas.
Inner cities are where you find the beautiful architecture and sights that don't hurt the eyes. In Texas, the inner cities of Austin, Houston, and Dallas, for example, and really, really nice. I've seen the same in most large America cities. At least we have that.
