>>,,,meanwhile Austin remains the state’s most segregated city both economically and racially. Of course Austin was built to be segregated. Right now, Austin stands as the only fast-growing city in the country that’s actually losing people of color. The schools remain segregated by the same designer gerrymandering that split Austin apart at its inception. It’s night and day. West Austin and East Austin. If 'everyone you spoke to praised Austin' I'd say you only spent time talking to people from one side of it.
