Austin may be known as a space for nature lovers and folks looking to escape the big city vibes of places like New York or Los Angeles, but the Lone Star capital simultaneously provides a sleek, urban atmosphere as well. Nowhere does this quality become more evident than in Downtown Austin, both the cultural center of the city and its literal, physical center.
People who love to live in high-rises with instant access to walkable coffee shops, the best restaurants in town, and classy cocktail bars will thrive here. The skyline changes on a monthly basis due to the booming population size associated with big-time cities (although, considering the size of Austin, those Downtown apartments become even more rare and coveted).
Since this is Texas, this cityscape comes with a twist when you live Downtown — you’re never too far from the scenic, natural beauty of Lady Bird Lake, which serves as the southern border for this neighborhood.
14,108 people live in Downtown Austin, where the median age is 42 and the average individual income is $137,860. Data provided by the U.S. Census Bureau.
