As the city of Austin grows, the area defined as Central Austin has also grown. Neighborhoods that were once considered to be the outskirts of town where the rich’s “country homes” were built, have now become considered part of the “downtown” area. You’ll find the most established neighborhoods in Central Austin with many of the homes built in the 1940s and 1950s. You’ll also find some historic homes, built closer to the turn of the century, near the area that’s now considered Downtown Austin. Central Austin is perfect for someone who wants to be close to downtown amenities and who would prefer to live in a unique neighborhood setting than a cookie cutter neighborhood in the suburbs.
