SOPHISTICATED PROJECTS ARE
DRAWING URBANITES TO THE
GREAT WIDE OPEN FOR SECOND

Austin regularly tops city roundup lists as the
fastest growing, most innovative, fittest, and
friendliest. But with so much development, the
urban core has become crowded, inspiring
families to look beyond the city limits. With its
convenient span between Austin and San

ideal place for urbanites seeking a more
peaceful lifestyle.
