Is Musk going to be happy with his choice?

We have to be forward thinking.
How do we prevent prosperous Texans from gentrifying our poor neighborhood?

Survey any group of engineers and managers from around the county. Ask if they'd prefer living and working in Austin or Tulsa. I'm pretty sure that was the big factor in the decision. Sorry but "Austin City Limits "and Univ of Texas at Austin are going to beat "Okie from Muskogee" and Univ of Tulsa.

Talk about stones and a glass house.

Just get yourself some deodorant!

Burn it down and spray paint what’s left.

I dunno that they care so much as where their employees live, rather than if they moved to Texas, Texas would then turn into a large "homer" market for their cars and trucks. Many millions more than Tulsa/Oklahoma for starters. I'd wager Texas will be changing their laws so they can sell direct to the buyer.

Sixth street was always fun.

Like Tulsa was ever seriously considered after his visit to that armpit

Ya well Tulsa didn't send a democrap to Washington.

Keeping them all to yourselves. Good.

Austin has been labeled the next silicone valley region. It just makes sense that he'd build where some of the brightest people in technology have already relocated to.

Seems fitting as the original silicon prairie was up in Ft. Worth

California used to be a red state before it allowed certain cities to become "weird".

I think Texas is going to repeat this pattern, assuming this country lasts another 10-15 years.

I'm not too fond of the next "California" being right next door. We're going to become the equivalent of NV or OR...
