Austin, Texas
The Hippest City on the Planet
Austin frequently appears on "best of" lists. RelocateAmerica's "Top 10 Overall" Money Magazines's "Best Big City", MSN's "Greenest City in America" just to name a few.
Austin is quite simply a melting pot of sights and sounds that can't be found anywhere else on the planet. From the quirky cast of characters that populate South Congress Avenue and “The Hip Zip 78704” to burnt orange-clad University of Texas students, bats to Longhorns, four-star restaurants to down-home barbecue joints, corporate CEOs to struggling musicians, Texas' capital city stands apart from the rest. Austin became a tech center, home to many large employers, in the 1990s. Today it maintains these identities and also fosters an increased prominence in the film industry.
It's hip and trendy, yet in a vintage sort of way. It's high-tech and laid-back. It's politically charged and culturally rich. It's eclectic by nature and creative by design. Most of all, it's a place where people like to have a good time.
The city is the cultural and economic center of the Austin-Round Rock metropolitan area with a population of more than 1.7 million residents. Its diverse neighborhoods include urban lofts and large country estates; starter homes and affordable apartments, making Austin truly a community for everyone.
