Looking at Texas
Well as most of you know already, we have a 3rd little one on the way. As much as we are excited about this does change things for us quite a bit.
The first way that it changes things is that our house is not large enough for a family of 5. With 4 we would have been alright but 5 in a 2 bedroom house is just too much. The second thing is that we feel the area that we live in isn’t the place for the kids to grow up and go to school in. We considered moving back to Corona but the houses are 1 ½ times the amount that they were when we lived there 2 years ago. Also the traffic is also 10 times worse.
Well after some research as to housing prices, job availability, and overall quality of living, we have narrowed or search down to Austin, Texas. Austin is know as the “Little Silicon Valley” in regards to jobs, has nice 2000 square feet house that start at $135,000 and has some really high rated schools for the kids.
We are planning on visiting Austin the last week of December to get a feel for the area and look at houses. Elsy’s parents will accompany us as they have accepted our invitation to move with us and retire. Both Elsy and I were really happy that they decided to move with us as they are a very large part of the kid’s life.
There will be more post in regards to our schedule for moving when we get back.
