Nope. I like Austin but couldn't live there. Too "weird" for me in large doses. Enjoy visiting though.

And I must say our mayor and county officials have been doing a great job with information and coordination through this strange time. How have your officials been doing in Houston happy?

For being the 4th largest U.S. city, it seems they are doing ok. Cases are low compared to the other densely populated cities. But, only at the end of this will we truly know how the officials, and residents handled the crisis.

We had some crime break out this week though. So I’m assuming that some of the residents are going back to their old ways.

Sounds about right. We led the nation in DUIs last year and you would hear about at least 2 or 3 every night. That's calmed down considerably. Still have a shooting or two every night but that's almost always on the east side. I'm guessing gangs and dealers aren't practicing social distancing.
