Alright good people of Austin...

I have been trying to get a handle on how Austin is divided up... lol.. the flow of the city, so to speak...

If someone or two or how over many would care to add their thoughts... It would be most welcome..

Questions...

I keep running into these *Gated* communities that look great and are not expensive for what they offer... They do not look cheap at all... What exactly is meant by gated? Are these suburb properties? Sort of Stepford communities? The price has me confused.. In omaha, the further OUT you go, the more expensive housing.. (Except in the heart of down town.. Have to LOVE urban renueal.. eye rolle...) Apts that I am looking at for 800.00 would be at least 1200.00 up here, if I have the lay of the city right..

Is Round Rock a suburb of Austin or a separate city?

What is a green belt?

Is there a part of town that is a good eclectic mix, queer friendly, good bookstores or a library? Where one could find a mid priced house/apt(has to have out door space if apt.. 5 cat's don't cha know..) with a little personality.. (I will take older and a lil run down over a box with no soul) Access to water would be very nice as I am a shrinking flower about extreem heat... (What can I say.. I'm a Northern California girl who has never gotten used to actually having seasons..)

What part of town should I be looking at??????? lol..

Here we have mid town.. Damn Urban Renual is pushing working class poor out, but there are still pockets where you can actually afford to live and have a claw tube bathtub and hard wood floors...

Help!!!!
