About Student Housing in Austin
Austin, TX is the Texas capital and a fast-growing tech-and-music hub, built for students around the University of Texas at Austin and its 50,000-plus enrollment just north of downtown. The student world centers on West Campus, the dense high-rise district right beside UT, with North Campus and Hyde Park stretching north and Riverside across Lady Bird Lake. Downtown's live-music venues, the Texas Capitol, and a calendar of huge annual festivals keep the city buzzing. Outdoor life is central: Zilker Park's 361 acres, the hike-and-bike trails ringing Lady Bird Lake, and Barton Springs give you somewhere to be outside nearly year-round. With Longhorns football and a deep music scene, Austin blends college-town intensity with a real city.
