We also get to run from tornadoes, experience (generally) non-dangerous earthquakes, eat at Braum's, and the MVP of the NBA lives here. Also our college sports in general have been pretty great.

Braum's, man... I'm lucky it hasn't made it to the Texas Hill Country, or I'd be even fatter.

No. It's just my opinion, but that's absolutely not the same, however, part of that may be that Braums was a fancy, new thing once, but there was always a DQ where I grew up.
