The capital of Texas, in the south-central part of the state. Austin was selected as the capital of the Republic of Texas in 1839 and became the permanent capital of the state of Texas in 1870. The main campus of the University of Texas (established 1881) is here.

The capital city of Texas, where Longhorns, hippies, yuppies, scenesters, frat boys, sorority girls, rednecks, WASPS, and transvestites all live together peacefully. The most liberal, liveable, and fun city in Texas, or anywhere. Popular for being the live music capital of the world and home to the coolest university.
I went to Austin,TX and I saw a guy wearing tight jeans with a plaid shirt, a dreadlocked hippie, and preppy pearls-and-a-polo wearing girl all in the same taco bar.
On Friday I went to Austin, TX and went to sixth street and got really drunk, then I went to a club and saw some awesome local bands, then i went to eat some awesome food at one of the 24-hour restaurants. I also got hit on by a crazy transvestite wearing nothing but a purple thong. It was the best night of my life.

A Beautiful place, with neighborhoods with hills where you can acutally see scenary unlike some West Coast State..
There are many lakes, many cool restaurants and enough bars to satisfy anyones' pleasure.
It is a city of art.
There is not only many films made in Austin, or TV shows but it is called the "live music capital of the world". You can see a live show any night of the week.
It's the capital of Texas and the home of different celebrities.
We are the Longhorns, we are liberal people everywhere, we are Austin Texas.
