Central Austin

Around MOPAC Expressway (Hwy 1)

You should live here if you enjoy the finer, well-tailored things in life. You want to live near downtown, but in a fabulous older home with a manicured lawn. You can appreciate the bohemian vibe of Austin but lean more towards the sophisticated and cultured events/restaurants/gallery openings/etc.
