Lots of families of all ages. Easy trails to walk. Pet friendly. HOA provides lots of social engagement for all ages. Restaurants nearby. Very quiet at night.

Austin is an up and coming city that has a thriving music scene. It makes this a prime location for the young festival and party-goers. It makes it feel a little exclusionary for the young, beautiful and wealthy look for a perfect location to see and be seen.
