Austin is my complete city. I feel so engaged, and the people in and outside of the City staff and politicians have all been incredibly welcoming. I made more friends here in my first year here than I had in 11 years in Tallahassee, which is where I moved from. This city rocks!
I’m curious: what does belonging mean to you? How do you think of a “complete city”?
I think of a “complete city” as a place where everyone feels comfortable anywhere in the city, at any tme of day or night, where everyone is housed and fed, and treated like a human being, but then I'm an old phart. A lot of problems stem from a dire lack of housing, but there is a very good solution to that problem in the works. If it pans out, affordable housing will be available in quantity, rapidly, and it looks likely.
