Ranked as the second most livable city in America by CNN/Money Magazine, Austin is by far the most diverse and lively city in Texas.  With a mixture of musicians, students, professors, hippies, cowboys, techies, and the newly rich "Dell"-ionaires, it is impossible to stereotype this up and coming city.  Known as the live music capitol of the world, Austinites (and the roughly 60,000 students at the Univ. of Texas) don't have to look very far to find a good time.  If partying on 6 th Street until four in the morning isn't your thing, Austin is also a sanctuary for mountain bikers, cyclists (Lance Armstrong is a native), hikers, kayakers, and anyone who enjoys a good game of Frisbee golf. 

Nicknamed Silicon Hills in the mid 1990's, Austin's technology bubble is fueled by a steady source of Engineers and Computer Scientists graduating from UT each year.  With numerous Venture Capital firms and large corporations including Dell, AMD, Freescale Semiconductors, Vignette, and National Instruments, Austin offers a Silicon Valley feel at a fraction of the price.  In fact,  Austin was recently named the 4 th hottest real estate buyers market in America.  Whether you are looking for an upscale loft on South Congress or to build a mansion in Round Rock or Circle C, Austin is a beautiful, vibrant, and affordable place to own a home.
