The quality of life is what attracts new-comers to Austin
The quality of life is what attracts new-comers to Austin, TX
A cool map of Austin, TX
Music: No matter how many things you’ve heard about the music scene in Austin, you can’t visualize its full depth and breadth. More than 150 venues offer regular musical sets. At any given time, more than 3,000 musical acts navigate this maze, and public places are a magnet for live music. Almost across the board it’s a consistently high level of musicianship that twice a year peaks in mammoth festivals: South by Southwest (SXSW) in the spring and Austin City Limits Music Festival in the fall. The SXSW Conference & Festival offer the unique convergence of original music, independent films, and emerging technologies. It’s a unique environment and experience and could only happen in Austin. You have a chance to discovery the hottest up and coming bands and artists that are coming out of the music world, you also get to gaze your eyes on some killer independent films that are on display, and take a bath in the latest innovative technologies where the brightest minds in emerging media and industry leaders share visions of the future through the latest digital tools and platforms. The SXSW is dated for March 11-20, 2011. Austin City Limits Music Festival know as ACL is a three day, eight stage event that happens in Austin every fall that will feature over 130 of the hottest and most popular bands and artists from around the world. This year the event will be held on September 16-18th 2011. If you love live music – Austin, TX is for you!
Arts: Second only to music, the arts are ubiquitous in Central Texas. In a select group of cities with professional symphony, opera, ballet, and theater companies, Austin also has benefited as those offerings improved exponentially during the past decades. There’s only one large art museum – the Blanton Museum of Art – but plenty of high-quality galleries and smaller museums. Comedy is red-hot in Austin, with dozens of transient sketch , improv and hybrid comedy troupes winning international fame.
Movies: Austin has been a movie mecca, more or less, for about 20 years. Besides giants like Robert Rodriguez, Mike Judge, Richard Linklater and Elizabeth Avellan, other directors, actors, designers and technicians wander our streets every day. Austin has been nicknamed Hollywood’s third coast and is rumored to be second in movie film and production only to Hollywood. And Austin was also featured #5 out of 10 best cities in the US to live, work, and make movies in 2010. The Alamo Drafthouse phenomenon started here and if you haven’t experienced a movie at the Alamo Drafthouse you must on your next visit. Not only do you get to have the opportunity to view old movie classics but you get to eat, drink and be merry while taking in your favorite cinema. Depend on the good folks with the Austin Film Society, Austin Film Festival, SXSW film festival and other hyperactive groups to keep this city cranking out the films. The most recent box office hits: Machete and Predators were both filmed in surrounding Austin area, Bastrop, and film/edited at Robert Rodriguez studio named Troublemaker Studios located in the Mueller master plan community of Austin which is located right off I-35 five minutes from downtown Austin.
Alamo Draft House
Nightlife: As money poured into Austin during the past two or three booms, club scenesters multiplied the “going out” options. Ultra-lounges were all the rage a couple of years ago. Now the night tribes follow celebrity party planners, social media mavens, and mixologists sparking the next cocktail revolution. Newer entertainment districts include West Sixth Street, East E. Sixth Street and Rainey Street. If your looking for a point in the right direction I would be glad to share with you some of my favorite nightlife spots from pure clubs, to outside roof top bars, to lounges, to old gutted houses turned into a chill scene to meet friends for drinks after a long day of work.
West 6th Street - visit Dogwood & Molotov I know the owners!
Sports: In Austin, sports count as entertainment. Especially the University of Texas Longhorns on any field of action. They’ve been joined recently by superior minor-league teams, such as the Round Rock Express, Austin Toros, Texas Stars and the amazing freshman Austin Aztex. The University of Texas has an impressive winning record when it comes to Football, Basketball, & Baseball. The teams each respectively are always in the top 5 or 10 in the nation year in and year out. Which is very impressive considering it’s tough to keep that level of consistency going in a college program. Add to that fast-expanding local sports bar phenoms, such as Third Base, Bikinis, Cover 3, and Cuatros.
Sytle: Not long ago, the only fashion show in town was staged annually by the UT design program. Now it seems models walk the runway every night of the week. The presence of powerful national stores (Neiman Marcus, Saks, etc.) helps, but more influential are the masses of designers and boutiques that make up the backbone of the Austin fashion scene. If you are in Austin on a first Thursday – take in the sights and sounds of south Congress as all the local boutiques open up for extended hours to show off their latest fashion forward designs, sales, along with offering up cool music by some of the hottest Austin DJ’s, and delicious food and drinks.
Food: When asked what they do for entertainment, Austintes often say: “Eat out.” As you will soon discover, dining in Austin often comes with a dash of design, music, comedy, or film. Austin is home to the most restaurants and bars per capita than any other American city! So take it all in!

Austin a top spot for young entrepreneurs
Austin, TX. keeps making news headlines again. Austin was one of the top 10 cities for young entrepreneurs last year according to Under30CEO.
Austin, TX
Austin, TX was ranked number 3 on the top 10 list. I can remember like it was yesterday when I decided to move to Austin. It was back in November of 1999, I was living in Harrisonburg, VA. at the time and just returned from a long 3-day weekend visiting Austin over Halloween weekend. I was a young 21 one year old entrepreneur with ambitious dreams of making it big in the ‘live music capital of the world’. At the time I had a home-based business where I sold air and water purification equipment and decided Austin was a great place to further my career as an entrepreneur. One of the many reasons why I decided on Austin over several other cities as it was a small-business friendly city. At the heart of Austin beats the entrepreneur spirit. And since Austin is so forward thinking we attract lots of start-up companies, green companies, hi-tech, computer-science, investing, etc.
It’s no surprise to me to see Austin now in 2010 and 2011 leading the nation in the recession recovery. With the Texas Workforce Commission predicting a 2-2.5% annual net growth in jobs through 2012.
If you are a young ambitious entrepreneur part of the generation Y moving to Austin to start your own firm, or land a cool hi-tech job at Samsung, or maybe trying your hand at the leading social networking site Facebook, this Rock’in city has a place for you. And because Austin is so cool we attract young and old, Austin is one of the leading places in America as well where baby-boomers go to retire.
To read more about this article visit the Austin Business Journal here: http://www.bizjournals.com/austin/news/2011/01/04/austin-a-top-spot-for-young.html
If your thinking of moving to Austin and have questions about the city from weather to business networking I would be glad to help out anyway I can. If your thinking of calling Austin home I would highly encourage you to make an official visit to explore and see the city for yourself.

Town Lake Living & the Austin Skyline …
Back in late April I was able to take a few hours off from real estate and meet up with some old friends and walk Town Lake in downtown Austin, TX. I brought my dog Maximus (Max) with me so he could enjoy the beautiful weather as well along with the refreshing water. Maximus is quite the water Buffalo or Otter…. he loves playing in the water and getting wet. I’m glad I carried my flip video camera along with me because I decided to film the forever expanding downtown Austin Skyline since I had a perfect view of it from Town Lake. Austin is growing by leaps and bounds especially the downtown Condo scene. Take advantage of the low end price points to buy in to one of many amazing projects. Years from now you will be saying: “I’m so glad I did…… or I wish I did.” Don’t let yourself be apart of the 2nd group.
