Austin, Texas
East Austin
Creative, walkable, fast-appreciating
East Austin covers the neighborhoods just east of Interstate 35, roughly from Lady Bird Lake north to Airport Boulevard. It is the most architecturally varied part of the city: 1930s bungalows, mid-century cottages and sharply modern infill often sit on the same block.
Buyers come here for walkability and character. East Sixth, East Cesar Chavez, Manor Road and the Springdale corridor each carry their own restaurant and gallery cluster, and most of the area is within ten minutes of downtown by car or bike.
Values have moved faster here than almost anywhere in Austin over the last decade. Lot value drives a large share of pricing, which makes East Austin equally attractive to renovators, small developers and buyers who want new construction close in.
