If you’re making the move to Austin, then you are in for a treat. According to Forbes, Austin is the third-coolest city in America! While our highest cool-factor was due to the amazing arts and culture this city has to offer, there are so many other things that make this one hip place to live.

The food
Austin has been featured in Travel + Leisure as one of America’s Best Cities for Foodies. While we’re known for our Tex-Mex and BBQ, there arealso our ever-increasing gourmet restaurants, food trucks, incredible breakfast tacos and so much more to enjoy.
What else is this city known for? Try the margaritas, enchiladas, pies, burgers and fries, fajitas, and ice cream, but not all at once!
The great outdoors
In Austin, you can have the best of both worlds by living in the middle of a thriving city while also having immediate access to the great outdoors. There are places to hike right in Downtown, or, with just a ten-minute drive, you can leave the city behind to check out some amazing views.
The music
We don’t call ourselves the Live Music Capital of the World for no reason. Pick any night of the week and you’ll find live music playing somewhere in the great city of Austin—it’s kind of our thing. Whether you’re in the mood for country or soul, R&B or rock, you’ll find nearby venuesfeaturing local talent that will knock your socks off.
Austin has definitely earned its cool-city cred, and we’ve enjoyed watching this city come into its own over the past few years.
