Who are we and why did we decide to write this site? My name is Rebecca Stoklosa, and I was in the same position you are in not too long ago. I was born and raised in Belmont, CA a city in San Mateo County about 20 miles south of San Francisco. After attending college at Georgia Tech in Atlanta, I was set on moving back to San Francisco. So, I did. And I lived there for about 5 years. But, what we found was the San Francisco Bay Area wasn’t the same as it had been when I left. I started researching other places to live and found Austin.
The decision to move to Austin wasn’t as easy as that one paragraph story. I did a lot of research, narrowed it down to a few cities and finally, after careful consideration, decided to move to Austin. Not knowing Austin, it was a bit difficult to research it online and compare it to what we knew – San Francisco. We decided when we opened up our real estate business in Austin, we’d make it easier for someone relocating.
The amazing thing was when I got to Austin, I realized just how many people from California, and the San Francisco Bay Area in particular, had made our same move. And, I thought, why not give someone an easy way to compare the two cities we know so well – Austin and San Francisco.
The goal of this website is to help you make an informed decision about moving to Austin. I’ll be as honest as I can in sharing my experience in both cities.
