About Austin, Texas:
🟢 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austin,...
🟢 www.austintexas.org/
🟢 www.austintexas.gov/
"Austin is the capital city of the U.S. state of Texas, as well as the seat and largest city of Travis County, with portions extending into Hays and Williamson counties. Incorporated on December 27, 1839, it is the 11th-most populous city in the United States, the fourth-most-populous city in Texas, and the second-most-populous state capital city (after Phoenix, Arizona). It has been one of the fastest growing large cities in the United States since 2010. Austin is the southernmost state capital in the contiguous United States and is considered a "Beta −" global city as categorized by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network."
"As of the U.S. Census Bureau's July 1, 2019 estimate, Austin had a population of 978,908, up from 790,491 at the 2010 census. The city is the cultural and economic center of the Austin-Round Rock metropolitan statistical area, which had an estimated population of 2,295,303 as of July 1, 2020, roughly 84% increase from the year 2000. Located in Central Texas within the greater Texas Hill Country, it is home to numerous lakes, rivers, and waterways, including Lady Bird Lake and Lake Travis on the Colorado River, Barton Springs, McKinney Falls, and Lake Walter E. Long."
"Residents of Austin are known as Austinites. They include a diverse mix of government employees, college students, musicians, high-tech workers, digital marketers, and blue-collar workers. The city's official slogan promotes Austin as "The Live Music Capital of the World", a reference to the city's many musicians and live music venues, as well as the long-running PBS TV concert series Austin City Limits. The city also adopted "Silicon Hills" as a nickname in the 1990s due to a rapid influx of technology and development companies. In recent years, some Austinites have adopted the unofficial slogan "Keep Austin Weird", which refers to the desire to protect small, unique, and local businesses from being overrun by large corporations. Since the late 19th century, Austin has also been known as the "City of the Violet Crown", because of the colorful glow of light across the hills just after sunset."
"Austin, the southernmost state capital of the contiguous 48 states, is located in Central Texas on the Colorado River. Austin is 146 miles northwest of Houston, 182 miles south of Dallas and 74 miles northeast of San Antonio.
In 2010, the city occupied a total area of 305.1 square miles. Approximately 7.2 square miles of this area is water. Austin is situated at the foot of the Balcones Escarpment, on the Colorado River, with three artificial lakes within the city limits: Lady Bird Lake (formerly known as Town Lake), Lake Austin (both created by dams along the Colorado River), and Lake Walter E. Long that is partly used for cooling water for the Decker Power Plant. Mansfield Dam and the foot of Lake Travis are located within the city's limits. Lady Bird Lake, Lake Austin, and Lake Travis are each on the Colorado River."

as with any place, don't move to a place for cost or jobs. move to a place because you want to be there. don't listen to realtors.
I want to be there because of cost and job opportunities.......
So true. I listen to the information. My visit was wonderful, but I obviously need more visits to decide if this is for me as a retiree in the next 3 years.
I visited Georgetown recently and I have to say all the neighborhoods were unexpectedly nice. I don’t know if you’d still consider it Austin but for 2000+ sqft at 400k, I’ve never been in nicer neighborhoods…. 🤷🏼♂️
You are the first person on these types of videos who is honest about crime and homelessness!
The Austin economy has had significant ups and downs. It is expensive, clicky, and divided economically. Mainly, there are no seasons, and summers are super hot. It's very transient; people move within five years. Traffic is horrendous on inadequate roads, a 20 minute trip winds up to an hour trip. Potholes, weeds, and beggars are normal After 14yrs. I moved.
Same as any city
Property taxes are a little high but insurance is stable and reasonable which is much better than the situation in Florida for example or insurance keeps skyrocketing and people keep getting dropped and advantage of Austin is no hurricane rare floods only downtown no tornadoes no earthquakes so insurance isn't that bad
I made six trips to Austin March to June 2023, most of what I saw was old, needed repairs, had high taxes, too many properties were overpriced, you need 400K plus to get a house in Austin now, it's a very pricey town now
Rent actually appears reasonable, though, compared to other places at least
QUESTIONS, in regards to your one of your videos you mentioned theres black widow spiders and scorpoions, is that also a problem IN the city (downtown) - if you have a DT specific video, please kindly link to this reply
More recently Dallas has been absolutely flooded with migrants and to some degree so has Houston both are big cities with big traffic and big highways everywhere or is Austin has bad traffic but it doesn't feel like such a megalopagus
Where is the best for operating food truck and living a family and education? Austin or Dallas?
What about living off Rainy street?
Problem is people. "Many will come in my name." 😊
Been in the Austin School district and have lost so many friends too how expensive it has for them to live here and the traffic to Austin SUCKS because of all of the suburbs and people who need to come to our town on our AWESOME 3 LANE INTERSTATE 💩Love the culture here tho fr
The construction on I-35 these past few months have made a bad situation worse
you left out our serial killer!
Where are the houses for under 650k in the city limits? All the houses we've seen on redfin are 850 to 1.5 million 10 to 15 minutes from downtown.
Our team would be happy to help, feel free to reach out 👍🏼
Is there a lot of live music?
Musician asking here.
Austin texas is the live music capital of the world.
How far is too far from downtown? Do you need to live near downtown for all the fun stuff? Complete newbie here but possibly movibg to Austin soon.
Pflugerville which is just North of city limits takes about 30 minutes without traffic and 40 minutes with to get dead center downtown I think that's about the limit there's also the toll road which is much faster and if you live further north and round Rock proper it just seems like it takes closer to an hour and it seems too much but the advantage of living just north of the city are many mainly to do with safety and having none of the poverty issues
Well damn. I’m from L.A. and am looking to possibly move to Austin 2025. I work in tech and work from home. Just makes sense. Traffic would make me feel like I’m home lol… What exact areas can you recommend for young professionals?
Del Valley, Rundberg, South East Austin, MLK, Airport Blvd.
South Austin 78748 best bang for your buck. 15 min from DT.
Tech boom has ruined Austin.
@@Chris-ij8tb
Suck it up,@@FlarkusChunswen. It's what we do.
I want to move to Austin so bad cause they pay well in my career field !
I live in San Antonio and I want to move to Austin the pay in SA is really bad no money.
Also Im vegan and Austin has lots of vegan places in SA there are 3 or 4 places.
@mzzzol feel free to reach out, 512-299-6030, we get lots of buyers coming from SA, we would love to answer any questions you have.
Pflugerville is great you can get downtown in 25 to 35 minutes and if you work just north of downtown you could actually commute no problem even with traffic the big issue is crossing the Colorado River that always backs up another good area is dripping springs and the Barnett road area closer in is nice but once you start getting closer in you get more 1930s tiny houses that really are broken down if you get into the edge of the birds you get modern housing most is about 20 years old which isn't bad the new stuff costs much more and that's a lot of what you're going to see in the advertising but if you get a used existing home you can easily find stuff in the 300 to 450 range at about 2,000 ft to 3,000 I don't like Cedar park and I don't like anything in southern Austin because of the crime I would say if you worked at Tesla factory consider Southern but other than that I wouldn't
I have never saw the hype about Austin. I have always seen it as a practice city full of entitled college students. Now Houston… I have no idea why Californians are not flocking there… great affordability, all the amenities of an international city, great real estate finds, and the beach is half an hour away… I’ve always considered Austin to be OVERHYPED by all the small town college students that experience a “city”. 🤦♂️ I’m sorry but overhyping Austin is only perpetuating the problem of the unflux. Other great areas in Texas for Californians would be the the Rio Grande Valley metroplex… great weather, south Padre Island with the most beautiful and most visited beach in Texas and affordability. But hey I get it, you have to talk Austin up because you are a realtor in Austin. 👍
Not to mention Mexico right next door to the Rio Grande Valley. Makes for an awesome daytrip. Also, both Houston and the Rio Grande Valley metroplex actually have HIGHWAYS that support big population. Who would have thought!
All that hype about Houston. You forget to mention the crime rate in Houston. Not to mention the corrupt broken justice system ran by the black community. Crooks and thiefs looking down on crooks and thieves.
Gentrification😢
😅 *promo sm*
I have to say after being here well over five years moving from Florida and Georgia Austin was the absolute disappointment. This is to anyone who’s thinking about moving to Austin I highly recommend that you pay attention to detail. Austin is not what it hyped up to be, and I am moving out of here. The infrastructure for transportation is non-existent. Let me say that again the infrastructure for transportation here is non-existent. Things are as expensive as New York City, and Las Vegas, as well as LA. I can say this because I’ve lived in the middle of Austin and I’ve lived on the outskirts of Austin. Even the outskirts of Austin are expensive. Food trucks are as expensive as an actual restaurant makes no sense. The cost of living does not equate to the environment in which you are living. If I had to describe Austin, it would be a non-denominational city. There is no hip-hop, there is no R&B, there is very little Latin, which is unbelievable for this area, clubs, and venues to go to. What you do find a lot of is live music. But it’s a certain type of live music if you know what I mean. I highly recommend you look elsewhere is the bottom line. Driving here is worse than LA. People don’t use their indicators. I’ve had almost 6 head-on collisions just in Austin because people are on their cell phones or women who are 5 feet are driving trucks that are lifted and they can’t see over the hood.
La is it disgusting pit Atlanta is getting very violent now you can't compare these cities with how they were five years ago Austin has been improving now that the no urban camping has been thrown out yes it's still suffers downtown it's more dangerous than before but it's got nowhere near as far downhill as those other places if you want to live closer and he'll pay a premium it's ridiculous but it's meant to suck the blood out of trendies as for music there's the elephant Room which has jazz and speakeasy has a lot of different kinds of acts
No hip hop, r&b, or latin is a major plus
@@greg4094nobody wants to listen to your boring no flavor country music. That’s why you guys are so unhappy because you have no culture
You lost credibility at driving there is worse than LA. I’m from LA. There’s no comparison.
I think the homeless all moved onto the city busses because they have been a nightmre since@giannagiavelli5098
Nope. Nothing to see here.
The carpetbaggers decimated the local culture. It really was special back in the day. Now it's just hot, overpriced, overhyped, bland and mean.
Austin used to be Austin's own version of Texas, weird but charming and still Texas; now Austin is just a bunch of transplants' facsimile of what they think Texas is.
Austin sucks. One of the most overrated cities I ever lived in. I’m sure at one time in the past it used to be very nice. Those days are long gone.
No city can be everything for everyone. Hope you have a nice day.
