Central Austin Neighborhoods

Central Austin Area Map Central Austin is one of the most desirable Austin regions to call home, and for good reason. Residents enjoy easy access to all that makes Austin one of America’s top ranking cities to live and work. Downtown is minutes from every Central Austin neighborhood, and few places have as many things to see and do in such a small area. The Town Lake hike and bike trail, 6th Street, the Texas State Capitol, the University of Texas, the Austin Children's Museum, Central Market, and the Whole Foods flagship store are just a some of the things in Central Austin that define our town. Having said that, there’s no wonder Central Austin homes come at a price. That cute little 900 square foot bungalow may run you $250K, and the new downtown Austin condo even more – but it’s true, you get what you pay for. In this case it’s location, location, location. Central Austin is an incredible place to call home.
