Just to warn you, houses outside of Austin tend to fluctuate in value whenever the Texas economy goes sour all out of proportion to the rest of the state. If you need room and you need culture, go to Fort Worth, if only because the property is even cheaper. (Having lived all over Texas, I'll be the first to state that Austin is one of the most overrated cities I've ever visited, and I'd sooner live in Houston these days than have to drive through Austin. I'd even move back to Portland before I'd move to Austin, and lower than that I cannot get. Austin combines the worst of Portland's entitlement brats and dopy vegetarians with Phoenix's weather.)
