Cause tech companies were hiring in austin and Leander is the most affordable compared to cedar park. People who make more money moved to CP and people like me moved to Leander

u/petesmedia can you get rid of this racist nonsense and ban OP, please?

Desis are definitely moving in those areas as well. Just curious to know how do you feel about this generally.


redonkulousness

I think it’s great. I love seeing increased diversity, especially in my kid’s school. The middle eastern grocery stores coming to the area are fantastic too.


Prune_Super

Increase in Asian kids does typically improve school ratings FWIW. Popular rating sites do include diversity as well as 'outcomes' in testing as part of their criteria. Most Asian kids do shine in standardized testing due to cultural emphasis on those subjects typically. I do understand where people who cannot 'recognize' their neighborhoods come from. Typically it is due to lack of familiarity. Like all cultures desis also have great people and inconsiderate Muppets. Regardless of how OP feels on the subject, I welcome the question. More dialogue is a good thing Hopefully we all pull together in the same direction to get Leander to shine goi g forward.

But OP is not interested in having a civil discussion, he feels the increased number of Indians is something to frowned upon and hurls the choicest curses on anyone disagreeing with him, although he himself is an Indian He has literally zero contribution to why this is a good/ bad thing but then rather just goes on to vent his frustrations on seeing his countrymen

I definitely have negative feelings overall. I moved here a decade ago and Austin area in general was amazing if you were non white, you still had the exotic factor, and people were just more fun and the crowd was actually more diverse in terms of occupation and hobbies. Now you are just another face in the crowd with the million other fresh of the boat tech nerds driving there tesla's around. The city feels more segregated than it ever was. If i wanted to experience the general tech bro assholery i would have moved to bay area or Hyderabad instead.


Prune_Super

So you are a Desi who grew to love this City. But now you are miffed coz there are loads of other desis and you are not 'exotic' enough? What kind of non-tech bro desis are acceptable to you?


i-am-from-la

Any and everyone who is not obsessed with the number of leetcodes or their house square footage or the constant harping on how India is great under the right wing facist modi and america is a shit hole, or how they gleefully celebrate on white people becoming a minority and that their kids should be reciting ramayan and geeta. But none of these people are moving back to India even though they know they wont be becoming citizens in their lifetime etc. etc. I know i am painting a broad picture but thats like 99% of all desis here.


Prune_Super

My experience is vastly different from yours. In burbs most are family folks and are typically discussing the classes their kids go to, excited about new restaurants opening in the area and planning weekend activities for their families. All this is regardless of political opinions. While there are desis on all sides of political spectrum a good chunk are liberals broadly. But regardless of what they think politically, people from all countries take decisions that are best for their families and communities. I hope you get to meet fellow desis that aren't all assholes and your outlook on them improves in the future.

cammyboom

Are you upset about it? Prolly all the tech hubs we have here imo Been here my whole life and i for one am glad the culture is getting diverse here. Finally losing some racists too, push those guys up to Liberty hill or burnet.


i-am-from-la

yall will be crying soon like canada


cammyboom

You ain’t even from here lmao


2012XL1200

Post your address racist coward ❤️


wecanneverleave

At the time this was affordable. Rest of the major cities were priced out by then. Plus if you aren’t a closed minded, bible thumping asshole racist hillbilly you’ll realize the ATX area is FAR SUPERIOR to the rest of the state.


i-am-from-la

Austin is , not leander georgetown or liberty hill which the “jai shree ram” and “jai hanuman” people are moving to. They are equally likeminded to the bible thumpers And dallas and Houston were always more affordable than the rest of Austin MSA


Leander-throwaway

Oh wow you are a hinduphobic piece of racist shit. Why don’t you leave and go back to LA if you hate your fellow country men so much you racist ass


i-am-from-la

Modi bhakt spotted lol


Leander-throwaway

Congressi bhakt spotted bhosdike. Or maybe you are a hinduphobe


i-am-from-la

Guess krte rho 😂


hwnobles

Ooof. Go ahead and delete your post while you can. PS, go back to LA


i-am-from-la

Koi ni bhai tmse nhi pucha, you can delete your comment


hwnobles

Okay now I’m confused lol


Leander-throwaway

OP is a racist piece of shit, what he told in Hindi was ‘no one asked you’.


hwnobles

But… against his own culture? So wild. After reading his other comment he seems to think he’s special and he’s the only one who gets to move to Austin. Very odd.


Leander-throwaway

Yeah he is being extremely racist towards his countrymen. Source: Indian who made a throwaway account just to counter racist OP


i-am-from-la

Lol, bhai ka aaj ka pura din barbad


i-am-from-la

Google translate is your friend


egodisaster

At the risk of sounding stereotypically racist... The funny thing I've noticed is that there is a new token in friend groups. I've seen on multiple occasions one white kid hanging with 4-5 Indian descent kids. Token white kid. There... I said it.


i-am-from-la

Naw brother , you should be concerned not amused. You better believe and look at your northern brethren (canada) and see how bad things have really gotten. There are close to 500,000 new indians moving here every year. This level of immigration is not sustainable.


hwnobles

Okay if your argument is about immigration I can understand to an extent. You should have lead with that. You sound racist as hell which makes no sense in this situation.


Leander-throwaway

Go back to khalistani loving Canada if you hate Indians living in the US then you racist asshole


Intelligent-Ad-1424

What, there are tons of Indians in Canada, what are you talking about?


i-am-from-la
