As the Texas capital, the live music capital of the world, and the home to the University of Texas, Austin is an incredibly desirable place to live. Even with scorching hot summers, the population continues to swell; Austin currently boasts around one million residents and shows no signs of slowing.

Downtown Austin is growing rapidly, with new condos, bars, and restaurants constantly springing up. These new developments are bringing a huge amount of new living space in this part of town, though many of these condos are quite small, so storage near downtown Austin is becoming increasingly important. Those who live downtown are fortunate to be in such close proximity to the city's myriad live music venues, which put Austin on the map as a music mecca. Downtown Austin is also home to countless events and festivals, ranging from the Republic of Texas biker rally to a gay pride festival to a reggae festival.

Downtown Austin is also home to the regal Texas State Capitol. Congress Avenue, which dead-ends at the Capitol, begins again on the south side and is a major artery through downtown. It crosses Lady Bird Lake and becomes SoCo, or South Congress. Populated with an eclectic mix of vintage stores, artists markets, food trailers, boutiques, a music club, and independent restaurants, it's a hotspot for those looking to live in a unique area close to downtown. It's considered one of the most authentically Austin parts of town, and "Keep Austin Weird" bumper stickers are often seen here. Austin self storage is readily available for those planning a move to the popular South Congress area.

A primary aspect of Austin's livelihood is the University of Texas, with over 50,000 students. The school is home to a championship-winning football team and one of the top law schools in the country. Due to the constant flow of students coming and going home for summers, storage near University of Texas is key for those who don't want to lug all their belongings home each break. While the immediate campus area is the most common place for students to live, you can also find many Longhorns living just north of campus in Hyde Park, a charming residential area that's more than 100 years old. Students looking for much more affordable apartments choose to live in the Riverside (south) or Far West (north) areas, and Austin self storage is also conveniently located in these parts of town.

The Greater Austin area has grown significantly, with suburbs sprawling in all directions. Pflugerville, Leander, and Round Rock are becoming increasingly popular, while southwest neighborhoods are also flourishing with families looking for a quieter place to live. The Lake Travis area is also lovely for those who love the ambiance of the Hill Country but want to still be somewhat near a larger city. Despite being away from the hustle and bustle, Austin self storage is not far from all of these areas.
