KEEP AUSTIN WEIRD!

By
Real Estate Agent with Austin Texas Homes

 

 

Keep Austin Weird is the official city motto for Austin Texas. It is all in fun. The city of Austin is a wonderful mixture of all that is America and all that is Texas. Called the Live Music Capitol of the world each evening over 300 venues feature live music. Typically three bands a night per venue. All kinds of wonderful music from Country to Rock, to ballads you will find it all.

The culture some have called “hippie”. In truth you can find it all in downtown Austin. The suits standing beside the filp flops and shorts, the dress with cowboy boots standing beside the blue jeans in high heel pumps.


 

Sixth street all night parties to south congress charm. Great food, great music, great people. Standing in the center of SOCO looking north you can see the capitol of Texas. Find a bench to sit down and surf the web on the city wifi it’s FREE.

Come for a visit. You will want to stay.

more areas should have wifi for free,  helps bring in people that spend money to build the economy of the area...  Nice to know of all the functions that are happening all the time... Should put Austin on my travel to list..

Austin is a vibrant city filled with culture and excitement.  As you well know, many students who attend UT, choose to live in Austin post graduation. Others move back as fast as they can!

I absolutely LOVE to visit Austin! If I were a city girl, Austin or The Woodlands would be where I would want to be.

Alan I have been to Texas but never to Austin.  This is something that I would love to experience first hand.

My Nephew's name is Austin. You bet he will get a big kick out of this post. I am going to reblog it and send him the Facebook link. I know what makes that Kid smile! Music and outrageous will be right up his alley. I did not know this colorful and unruly alliance with his name. Great post!
