Hee hee just kidding...Austin joke.

Like Diva said the closer to downtown is going to be more exspensive. Right now downtown and just south of the river are in the middle of urban renewal and so are going to be the most exspensive. The edges of these area will be less exspensive obviously.

But by what you have exspressed to be looking for I would suggest that you look in the area north of 24th street up to Koening ln/fm 2222, with loop 1/mopac to Airport blvd/loop 111 being your west/east borders. In this area I think you will find the $$$ is right and the places have character.

As far as the water issue goes that is plenty of that; the Colorado river runs right through the center of town. Austin is bordered by lakes and rivers that are as close as 20 minutes away to a couple of hours. There is no shortage of water fun here...well unless we are in a drought!! hee hee

In all fairness there is so much going on in all areas of Austin as far as music, food, entertainment, shopping that, with the exceptions, there arent really bad areas to live in here.

Probably more then you wanted to know but there it is
