Imagine a city where residents play in verdant parks and along miles of nature trails, where a rich cultural scene offers the best in music, film and theater, where a vibrant economy and diverse industry

provide residents with a high quality of life. Now, imagine that this city enjoys some of the mildest weather in the U.S., with temperatures rarely dipping below freezing. This city also boasts affordable real estate and a low cost of living. And, this city is home to some of the friendliest, most easy-going people on the planet. This imaginary place actually exists, and it’s one of the best kept secrets in America. Where is it? You’ll find our city deep in the heart of Texas. Austin – the Live Music Capital of the World, the heart of Silicon Hills and home of the University of Texas Longhorns – offers a lifestyle envied across the globe. The capital city of Texas, Austin lies in the center of the state, seventy-five miles from San Antonio and less than two hundred miles from Houston and Dallas. With a population of about 1.6 million people in the metro area, Austin offers the right balance of big city culture and small town charm.

Add to that its natural beauty, a thriving economy and a burgeoning creative class, and it’s easy to see why Austin is consistently ranked as one of the best places to call home. U.S. News and World Report, Money

Austin – MUCH MORE THAN JUST THE CAPITAL OF TEXAS

Magazine and Men’s Journal are just a few of the publications that have ranked Austin among the best places to live in the U.S.

And, to the west and north of Austin stretches the gorgeous Texas Hill Country. The Hill Country offers some of the most beautiful scenery in Texas, including lakes, rivers and swimming holes for virtually endless water activities. The Hill Country’s Highland Lakes provide un-crowded waters and beautiful scenery for boaters.

Whether you’re looking for a luxury downtown condo, a family home, a lake house or a weekend ranch, Austin and the Texas Hill Country are great places to call home.

Abundant green space ranks among the top reasons why Austinites love their city, which boasts more than seventeen thousand acres of urban park land. Its public system of trails, parks and pools has helped residents become some of the healthiest in the country. Public and private golf courses and unlimited cycling opportunities are other reasons Austin consistently makes the annual list of the Twenty Five Fittest Cities in America by Men’s Health Magazine.

Austin offers plenty of indoor activities, too. Dubbed the “Live Music Capital of the World,” the city boasts more than two hundred live music venues. More than two thousand up-and-coming recording artists from around the world descend upon Austin for the highly-regarded South

by Southwest Music and Media Conference. A growing film industry has earned Austin a reputation as the Hollywood of the south, and the Austin Film Festival has become one of the most prestigious film events in the U.S. Austin is home to Ballet Austin, the Austin Symphony Orchestra and the Austin Lyric Opera. The University of Texas’s Blanton Museum of Art serves as the city’s hub for the visual arts. Austin enjoys a thriving economy bolstered by strong and diverse industries. Because Austin is the capital of Texas and the home of the University of Texas, the state government ranks high on the list of Austin-area employers. These state entities also attract a broad array of businesses to the area, from hotels and restaurants to law firms and lobbyists.

Beyond the Capitol Building and the university, Austin has earned a reputation as a city of creativity, innovation and invention. An influx of high-tech companies beginning in the 1980s earned the Austin

area the nickname Silicon Hills. Hundreds of small start ups have sprouted from Austin’s business-friendly environment. Texas fosters this environment as there is no personal or business income tax, and the state government has taken steps to attract new businesses. Interestingly, Austin ranks as the fifth most educated city in the U.S., according to the U.S. Census Bureau. The cost of living index for Austin ranks below the U.S. average. One reason is Austin’s affordable housing market. In 2007, the National Association of Realtors reported that the median price of an Austin home was 16 percent lower than the national average.

Austin and the Texas Hill Country just may be the world’s best kept secret. Mild weather, plenty of green space, a business-friendly environment and a low cost of living make it a great place to start a business, raise a family, or enjoy your retirement years. Austin, Texas. It’s a great place to call home.
