Top 10 Cities for Hispanics to Live In
Hispanic magazine
(August 2005)
“Austin tops the list for the second year in a row for good reason. The capital of the Lone Star State had all the basics: low crime rates, reasonable housing costs, and a happening cultural scene.”
The Last Buccaneer
Rolling Stone
(June 30, 2005)
“The reason Mailer is in Austin … He has sold his massive archive – 20,000 pounds of letters, manuscripts, jeremiads and journalism that form an incomparable record of the six turbulent decades in which Mailer has starred as one of the most important cultural figures of the second half of the twentieth century – to the Ransom Center for a handsome $2.5 million.”
AUSTIN
Meetings South (U.S. Edition)
(July 2005)
“Ask someone who’s not from Texas what their favorite Lone Star State city is, and they’ll likely start raving about Austin. The town was originally called Waterloo, but Stephen Fuller Austin, the founder of Texas, liked it so much he named it after himself. Planners considering Austin will also find plenty of reasons to bring groups to town, starting with its healthy business community, walkable downtown, first-class facilities, and rockin’ good times.”
The 10 Greenest Cities
Vegetarian Times
(July/August 2005)
“Austin #2: Despite the heat, Austin’s abundant water and progressive politics make the city feel downright un-Texan at times. The Highland Lakes begin in town and stretch 85 miles northwest into the Hill Country. With its positive energy and usable green space, it’s not surprising that the Texas capital is one of the fastest growing cities in the country.”
Austin City With Few Limits
Everett, WA, Herald
(May 29, 2005)
“A more interesting combination of attractions might be hard to find: largest urban bat population in North America, enough music to warrant the title of ‘Live Music Capital of the World,’ …a festival that celebrates Spam and the largest organic supermarket in the world. Welcome to Austin, Texas, where the improbable is possible, where dining is a destination and a compliment to live music.”
