But it is not Nashville and not even close. When I drive over the down the hill on 75 and see Cincy the skyline with the two stadiums that seems like a much bigger city than Austin. They have world class Sports entertainment and so much more to do than Austin. Now Austin is bigger than Cleveland metro. Has anyone been there? No Austin is not a huge city but is an overgrown expensive suburb of Dallas Houston And San Antonio. It has a melting pot of people living in it from all around the Country. But it really does not have an Identity of its own and never will as a huge city because it is surrounded by more established ones. It is not really a part of Texas but is a bubble of its own. Sports teams are how large cities are identified in this country. That is just the way it is. But Austin has no interest in one. Austin is the largest city in the World that does not have a major sports team. Most international cities all over the world have Major Soccer Teams in their own or what ever sport is popular in that region. Soccer is not a major sport in this country and nobody outside of Austin cares about Austin FC. So there is only one place in the US that Austin is like to some degree. Austin is the Inland Empire East. A suburb of LA sort of LOL.
