We Texans are well known for our warm hospitality and friendly nature. So it should be no surprise that many visitors take well to the welcoming atmosphere they find here.

Honestly, why would a live music lover want to live anywhere but in the "Live Music Capital of the World," Austin? Our entire state is known for its thriving music scene.

In addition to our strong sense of pride and independent spirit, we've got some pretty rad scenery too. Have you ever been to Big Bend National Park? How about Palo Duro Canyon or the Gulf Coast beaches? The fourth-best-ranked road trip in the U.S. is right here in The Lone Star State.
