I live there!!! Loveeeeee this city but it’s growing too much too fast :( I’m starting to miss the cattle, horses and the green pastures as they start construction on a lot of the areas

A lot of different vibes in austin, places to check out would be leander, cedar park,, Pflugerville, mueller, holly, manchaca, and Kyle for hones not too far from the city. What's your budget and hhi? A 3/2 could be 350k or 600k depending on the area

like

Check out homes in the deer park elementary area, cedar park. I think 500k will get you a good 3/2 home (maybe a bit older)

What is affordable for you? What type of life are you looking for?

If you’re talking less than 400k, then will be in some mundane suburb. If 800k+ is affordable to you then maybe you can gat something more central.
