That's right, this isn't a thread about fires
I'll be moving to Austin in a few weeks. Already have a job ready, so money's not a problem. Job is a bit north of the 183 (forgive me if I use street/highway names other than the ones you guys normally use
).
I'm looking for an apartment that's no more than 15 minutes away from my job or downtown. Ideally, it'd be in the rectangle formed by the 183, Mopac, I35, and the river to the south.
Additional details:
- 2 bedrooms
- Safe
- Nice looking (for ~$1300 it better look relatively good), preferably more urban
I also have a few more questions:
- What kinds of apartment will have better soundproofing? I've never lived in one before, so I've no idea for example how loud I can play music without disturbing others, and how bad/good soundproofing can be.
- Aside from downtown, what are other good places to hang out, shop, and eat?
- Any other advice on moving to Austin, good/bad neighborhoods and areas, etc. would be greatly appreciated
