My six-month-old daughter, Amelia; my husband, Scott; and I moved to Austin in August 2019 from San Antonio — literally an hour and a half away. There really just aren't that many high-paying tech jobs in San Antonio and we both loved that industry and wanted to stay in it. Austin, being the next-closest tech city, had an abundant amount of high-paying tech jobs. I enrolled in the Entrepreneur Center of Austin, which San Antonio doesn't have.

Portugal is ending a hefty tax break for foreigners in 2024 that incentivized many to move there. But come 2024, it will be significantly more expensive to live there if you're coming from another country. Now those moving to Portugal in 2024 and beyond will have to pay the same amount of income tax as everyone else, Le Monde reported. Americans already living in Portugal, like Dan Bagby and his wife, Michelle, who moved to Lisbon from Texas in 2021 , won't be immediately affected. But with the cost of living going up and reaching levels of parity with other countries, foreigners may not move to Portugal at all.
