The South Austin Lifestyle — Just Around the Corner

South Austin has a personality all its own. It's where Austin's quirky, creative spirit lives: South Congress boutiques, South Lamar food trucks, the live music scene at Saxon Pub and ABGB, and beloved neighborhood spots like Jo's Coffee, Odd Duck, and Cosmic Coffee & Beer. Zilker Park, Barton Creek Greenbelt, and Lady Bird Lake give outdoor enthusiasts endless room to explore. This is the Austin people fall in love with — and from Persimmon, all of it is an easy drive away.
