美国最有动力和宜居之城-德州奥斯丁

今天我们再次走进久违近两年的德州首府奥斯丁，沿着七十一号州际公路，到处尘土飞扬，大型吊车沿公路两旁林立。

现任特斯拉公司老闆马斯克在此许下了豪语，他将在德州建立特斯拉电动车的世界王国，并将把生產基地放在奥斯丁。

世界知名品牌苹果、三星、谷歌、亚马逊近年来也纷纷在此设厂，由于电子电脑科技之不断迁入，它已成為了美国的另一个矽谷。

超过五万学生的德州大学，是奥斯丁最重要的学术重镇，整年温度在七十摄氏度，这𥚃的山丘湖泊使它成為全美最宜居城市的前三名。

為何有如此多的外州居民和企业不断涌入，其原因应该是多方面的，德州没有个人州税，对於土地取得和工厂之兴建，持开放和调合之态度，其中最重要的还有地產价格相对非常便宜，由于公立大学有大量各科毕业生，人才不缺。

生活在这个德州首府有郷村和城市结合之氛围，詹森总统曾是这𥚃的德州人，如今詹森夫人湖已经成為超过四百亩可以蓄水之水厙及风景湖，走在德州大学附近之街道，那裡的乡村音乐和正宗烤肉已成為观光客必访之地。

今午我们又重游市区拉马北街的中国城，市容整洁，超市餐厅林立，又重回疫情前之荣景，我们感谢这些勤奋努力的华亚裔同胞，他们的努力代表了美国多元民族社区不可或缺的成就。
