Dallas, which is a bit cheaper than Austin. The $325k number was comparing Dallas to Seattle.

Moved from Seattle to Dallas...yeah, COL is way lower here in Texas. Both states have no income tax, so there is that, but...housing is the killer. Just settle for LESS house than you would buy in Texas. We bought too much house in Texas just because we could. We didn't need as much house as we bought.
