Once just a quirky outpost in a deeply conservative state, this capital city has grown up into a diverse, influential, and well-established city. Given its rich music scene, historic charm, and plenty of recreational green space, Austin's popularity is no mystery. It's grown as a tech hub, college town, and creative bastion ("Keep Austin Weird" is its motto), but Austin hasn't forgotten its country roots or indie heart.
