You are pretty well confined to cities, even f they are small ones if you are dependent on public transport. I would suggest Albuquerque myself. If not there, then San Antonio. Stay away from Dallas or Phoenix. IMHO

Hi ATS, I want to direct a few questions to members who live in Texas and or the Southwest US. Why this area? Well, it's kind of pertinent for my job as an EFL/ESL teacher as I'm quite fluent in Spanish. I wish I could stay in Peru, return to Mexico or stay in another Spanish speaking country, but I want to keep my distance from certain people for a while. I also would like to keep to a warm area for my health.
As I currently lack a car for the moment, I'm looking for a place that has fairly reliable public transportation until I make enough to get a used car/insurance.
Fairly affordable housing or rent in safe-ish neighborhoods? I wouldn't know if I qualify for any type of benefits.
LGBT tolerant or people who don't give a # if i'm an effeminate homosexual....don't worry, I'm not annoyingly flamboyant
I just want to get a good scope before I dig into Indeed, Couchsurfing or whatever.
Thanks guys

Why stay away from Phoenix? It's the second fastest growing city in the country? It's also growing more liberal by the day.

I'm not Spanish...i'm mostly German descent, my home state was Wisconsin
I just love Spanish/Latin American culture and love helping people, so not celebrating isn't that big of a downer for me...
Funny, I'm also trying to learn Navajo too and debating on picking up Arabic to help LGBT MENA people.
