that's actually exactly right.
you're only 3hrs from dallas (don't know what it is to ATX). smaller than the LBK but not that much noticeably smaller...4 colleges (including the tech campus), cheaper than LBK...and more importantly way far prettier land than LBK. hills, valleys, canyons, small mtns...with dry weather, so unlike ATX or DFW you aren't suffocating in humidity during the summer heat. huge lake for skiing, fishing...pretty girls out there. and burly deer, turkey, and boar population if you hunt. you buy a nice pad for cheap. I'm not trying to sound like the damn chamber of commerce, just that on the surface one mights say "abilene wtf?!?" but I've spent a lot of time there in my adult life and rate it higher than most places in texas. |
