West Congress is a colorful community shored up on the south side of I-35 in southwest Austin. Its proximity to St. Edward’s University makes it a great spot for students, but families will appreciate the characterful homes and lush landscaping of the area too.
West Congress is characterized by the vibrant ranch-style homes and contemporary apartment complexes that Austin has become known for. The neighborhood is bisected by Williamson Creek, with lush trees and trails to explore along the shore. A number of casual Austin restaurants and taco spots serve the area, and all the offerings of the city are just a few minutes away thanks to the nearby Interstate.
