Austin, the capital of Texas, has grown into one of the best cities in America for the arts, and its growing population and economy are due in part to that. The population of Austin has grown a little over 10% in the past decade, yet its real estate has remained very affordable. Good homes and condominiums can still be found in the city for under $200,000.

A draw to Austin is the music, film, arts and sports culture that is found throughout the city. This culture is attractive to young professionals—the average age of those who live in Austin is about 30 years old.

Austin dubs itself the “Music Capital of the World” and is well known for its music venues and its large yearly music festival, South by Southwest, which consistently draws big names and the hippest up-and-coming acts. There are several theaters in the city, too. And while Austin has no professional sports teams to call its own, the town gets behind the teams of the University of Texas whole-heartedly.

The professional job scene in Austin is vibrant in the technical, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology areas. In fact, the technology industry is strong enough to have earned the city the nickname of Silicon Hills.

Austin real estate agents are well prepared to help those looking for homes, town homes, and condominiums sort through the real estate listings to find the right place for new residents to live in this thriving Texas city.
