I never found the Austin are to be too bad as far as humidity. Not really any bugs there either. With the exception of the occasional flash flood or wildfire I find the Austin/San Antonio area climate to be pretty nice most of the time. It does get pretty hot there though in the summer.

Both of my brothers live just outside of Austin and have been there for probably twenty five years or so.

Definitely plenty of good food and plenty of good music. The bats are pretty cool too.
