Well, I’ve lived at the Austin area for 53 years now. I’m always up and down i35 every day , and I’ve always looked at South Austin to be from the Holiday Inn right before you cross the lake. On down to Onion creek. I Look at downtown Austin to start when you cross the lake from South Austin and you go all the way through where all the bridges cross each other and then all of a sudden you pop out. That’s where I figure that downtown Austin ends, and North Austin begins.

[@MovingATX]

Thank you for all of your great and helpful input!

[@freddysanchez8753]

I moved to Austin back in 2010 and have seen this city change to dirty 6th while living uptown working in the Domain now at Baton Creek spa and Resort

[@MovingATX]

Thank you tuning into the channel!

Putting Yeti down as a something that is not indigenous to Austin is wrong. Yeti is a Texas company and its first flagship store was opened in Austin in 2017. Their products may be sold nationally but they are a Texas brand and an Austin brand. I would put them in the same category as Whole Foods because Whole Foods is also an Austin brand that went national.

I didn't watch the video but I grew up in Austin South Austin is the best place to live. You can still feel the culture you only 15 min from downtown you got San Marcos and New Braunfels not too far. Only thing worth while in north Austin is the domain.

[@MovingATX]

Great feedback - thank you!

[@MovingATX]

Great feedback - thank you! Are you still living in the Austin area?

[@ShoeCrewTV]

@@MovingATX your welcome

[@ShoeCrewTV]

@MovingATX I have my grandparents that live in South Austin I currently live in New Braunfels. My opinion new braunfels will be the next Austin but somewhat better cause you can actually raise a family and it's a trending city like Austin because of the hill country vibe and it's naturally gentrified. And local spots that make it unique like Austin was in 06, 07

[@TheVimeo]

a lot of cities in the world claim to be the live capital of the world.

[@MovingATX]

Yes, they do!

[@trevorwgoodchildx]

Don't encourage people to move here, as a native I see the housing shortage causing property owners to have a captive audience, and raise rent rates beyond affordable. All because of videos like this and media hyping up moving here the folks moving here ruin what brought them to the city. This includes trying to rezone historic districts to allow STRs rented out as airbnbs against the character of the neighborhood

[@MovingATX]

Thanks for watching! Since it’s my career, I take a lot of pride in informing people who are interested in Austin about the good and the bad. Saying my videos hype up a move to the area or contribute to any negatives related to Austin is quite a stretch. My hometown of San Antonio has also changed over the years, as do most cities. I’m sorry that’s your experience with Austin. Austin is not in a housing shortage. In fact, we have a 13-year supply high. It’s a great time for buyers. On the topic of rental rates, let’s take inflation as a simple example. Property owners are paying significantly more for insurance, ongoing property maintenance, property taxes (historical increases), and a variety of other factors, all contributing to rental rates. In good news for renters, there is an oversupply of multi-family housing. Recent rezoning in parts of Austin was to increase density in order to allow for more homes to be built on a single lot with the goal of creating more affordability near the city core. Will it work? We will see…

[@RedLeo-pf9yo]

Austin doesn’t have a housing shortage. That was like two years ago.

[@RedLeo-pf9yo]

This is how she makes a living, so unless you plan on paying her bills, you can’t tell her not to do her job. It’s not her fault that Austin is an amazing place to live.

[@user-tx1hy1wr2m]

Just like Cali now

[@MovingATX]

How so?

[@RedLeo-pf9yo]

No it’s not.

[@CharleneSmith-we9vh]

Austin is not safe, North or South doesn’t matter anymore. I would never raise a family in Austin. All my relatives and friends living in Austin are leaving.

[@andrevshimself]

How is it not safe?

[@MovingATX]

I'm curious as well...

[@MovingATX]

Hi Charlene - thank you for watching. I'm curious, where are your friends and family moving? Every city has parts of town that may not be the safest, but Austin and the surrounding metro have many nice, safe areas as the norm. I'm sorry you had a different experience. North & South Austin still differ quite a bit and continue to be a big topic of conversation on my end, especially amongst potential homebuyers and people relocating to the area.

[@andrevshimself]

Austone is not the live music capital of the world. Its definitely Nashville.

[@MovingATX]

Thanks for tuning in! Austin’s long-time slogan has been the “Live Music Capital of the World,” which now seems to be in the form of festivals and some of the smaller venues / long-time staples.
