Austin is awful. Any escape?

Austin has been awful for the past 15 years or so. Now: Completely generic, tech-people-filled, rents jacked up by incoming Californians. (What the vibe of the town used to be: slackers who had not yet annoyingly labeled themselves "creatives.")

I'm stuck here for the moment. But, as exhibited by my recent quitting of a solid job, I will never be subservient to idiocy and illogical leadership. I can't escape for the moment, but I wish to. Can I come up with any way to get out? (Can't/won't leave cats.)

Can you move to Fredericksburg? Become a nanny or provide elder care? You’re not stuck, just time to get creative. Trade work for rent maybe. Good luck.
