Hello all,

I am joel from india. I am permanently moving to USA in summer this year.

I am not sure how much democratic or republic i am but i am more leaning towards you all as i have read that..democrats are more open to immigrants.

I have 2 options to live in USA : Florida (Tampa) Or Texas (Austin)...i am not sure which one i will choose...can you guys tell me pros and cons of each ?

{Company has offered me job and told me to select location according to my wish}

thanks
joel

Can't speak for Tampa, but.. absyntheminded Jan 2013 #4

I'd suggest Austin, too. Probably better pay and benefits. Unless the Florida locale has a beach... freshwest Feb 2013 #20
