0 Upvotes

Born and raised in austin but finding it harder and harder places to find and make friends. Young 20’s who works remote are there any places, groups or clubs to join that is not a total snooze fest but is a great place to meet new people. Thanks in advance!

0 Upvotes

These Austin neighborhoods are hottest with buyers, even as the overall housing market has slowed down. Based on Redfin data, these are the top 5:

  1. Tanglewood Forest
  2. Buttercup Creek
  3. Behrens Ranch
  4. Milwood
  5. Johnston Terrace

Do you agree with this list? What other Austin neighborhoods should be in the top 5?

Moving Anyone else dealing with extensive Amazon delivery issues?

2 Upvotes

I’m redoing a couple rooms in the house / deep cleaning and ordered quite a few things. Like 25-30 separate items many grouped together as same day, overnight and some more miscellaneous next day. Of the 6 separate orders I made over the past week, 1 has arrived on time. Everything else delayed to the following day at the least or is just sitting not moving now. It’s beyond frustrating

Best way to find space to rent?

1 Upvotes

I need to rent a room that can hold ten people for a few hours and I can't think of any places that might work for that besides the library. I know some breweries have tap rooms but I'm not really interested in setting up at a place that sells booze as a person who doesn't drink at all. I considered an airbnb but I need the time in the afternoon and most don't have check in until at least 3, and having ten different cars would probably be an issue. Suggestions anyone?

Looking for a gardener who knows tropicals in Austin

1 Upvotes

Helping a friend find ongoing care for a collection of tropical plants, mostly in pots. The regular lawn services are not the right fit. Has anyone hired a gardener in Austin who genuinely knows tropicals, including getting them through winter freezes? Recommendations and what to look for both welcome.

Hey everyone! I'm moving to Austin soon and am considering the lakseshore area. I love the proximity to the lake and trails, and the area seems very walkable. However, I'm seeing mixed reviews about safety.

Would you recommned the area? Any inputs on Bell South shore, Alexan , and Azul Lakeshore from current or past residents?

(side note : why do so many aparments not have windows in every room?!)

Thanks in advance!

Visiting Anyone down for a drink & comedy tonight (40M visiting from Finland)

9 Upvotes

Hey Austin! I’m a singer from Finland, currently here on tour, and tonight is my night off!

I’m planning to catch the Buzzkill Comedy show at The Buzz Mill (Riverside) tonight at 9:00 PM. 

I’m flying solo and would love to find a comedy buddy or a small group to join me. Platonic vibes, open to hanging out with anyone (male/female/all) cause it’s more fun that way! 

Drop a comment or send me a DM if you're down to hang out. Cheers!

Health & Wellness Allergy Shots

1 Upvotes

I'd like to find somebody competent and kind for allergy shots. I've done the drops but the idea that they're going to take 3 years to actually work seems silly to me. Plus, at the previous place I was going to, I felt like I was just being managed for money with no real stake in the outcome. The drops just never worked and the provider just never really cared.

Health & Wellness Help finding therapist for pre-divorced Dad.

6 Upvotes

The one guy I really had a connection with is a 50 min drive, and its just not feasible to go, hoping for in-person twice a week. The break up is not my choice at all, no big betrayal on my end, early 30s, have kids, my whole life is changing way too fast and Im at a breaking point. Always had terrible luck, usually find therapists that just dont feel like they give as shit. Do have insurance atm, but wont last. Im in the Pflugerville/RR/Hutto and desperately need the communities suggestions. Ty in advance. 😞
