Austin, known as the “Live Music Capital of the World,” it’s also unofficially known as the best city in Texas, especially by those who make their home here. Ask people what they love most about living in the Austin area - for some, it’s the Hill Country, with the rolling slopes and beautiful vistas. For others, it’s the lakes, the creeks, and the swimming holes that offer a break from the work-a-day world. Others say its the culture, the arts, the university, the laid back attitude. Whether you are an Austin native or a recent transplant, Austin is a city of worldly culture where people feel welcome.
