78749: My Favorite Zip Code in South Austin
I live in 78749. I’ve lived here since I moved to Austin. And I’m not leaving.
If 78748 is a Kia, 78749 is a Lexus. Not flashy. Not loud. Just incredibly reliable. The kind of place you can drive for the rest of your life and never feel like you need to “upgrade.”
It’s comfortable. It’s practical. It’s quietly elite.
Legend Oaks… More Legend or More Oaks?
Legend Oaks is one of those South Austin neighborhoods that quietly wins without needing to brag about it. It doesn’t scream for attention. It just sits there being incredibly practical, well built, tree covered, and reasonably priced while everyone else argues about whether Circle C is worth it.
South Austin Parks: One of the Most Underrated Reasons People Love Living Here
One of the best parts about South Austin is something people don’t always notice right away. The housing is not packed in like a game of Tetris and when the city built out the infrastructure, they actually left room for green space. Real green space. Parks you can use without an HOA password or a secret handshake.
