Which of the unis would provide the best location?

Here is my worry about Austin. I don't know much about it, but Texas doesn't appeal to me. I don't want to live in an area like Big Steve describes where being Gay is seen like some kind of disease and you are persecuted because of it. Being around religious people is fine but I don't want to be around Bible Bashers.

Austin is the most open minded city in Texas, so there shouldn't be any problem with the bible thumpers. However, the weather in the summer is hotter than hell and the cost of living isn't cheap.

I voted for San Diego but I'm guessing the cost of living there is expensive too. I bet there's alot of hot, gay marine action though.
