A good fit if
- You want a block with a life of its own
- You will use the kitchen and the shared evening
- You are new in town and would like that to be easy
Austin
Lively side
Porches, food, and the kind of block people picture when they move to start something.
The lively side is where a lot of new arrivals want to be. You can eat well without a plan, sit outside most of the year, and meet people who are also in the middle of building a company, a practice, or a first year here.
Social living is the house here: a twin-sharing room, a real kitchen, and a place the house actually uses in the evening. The exact place is told when you want to visit.
The tradeoff
Weekends are busier than the slower side or the practical side. The house rules hold the line indoors.
Getting around
A bike or a rideshare covers a lot. A car is useful and not required for daily life around the house. Downtown is close.
