Living In Lakeway Texas | Pros & Cons [AUSTIN LAKE TOWN]

I lived around Astin for twenty years and do not remember a Lakeway. I lived on Lake Travis for a couple years in Volente. You might want to reference the Memorial Day Flood 1981 before you consider Lake Austin, Town lake as the place to live.

I lived in Lakeway for almost 2 years and loved many things about it. The people were great. The medical care was fantastic (Baylor Scott & White), and the sense of community was like nothing I'd ever experienced. I could go on and on. However, I was from California, and two negatives drove me away--almost DAILY scorpions and tarantulas! Scorpions ranged in size from small black ones to large tan ones. The tarantulas were in my garage, yard, street, and everywhere. My bug man was out monthly and teased me because I had sticky traps everywhere. I had to line my garage with them, which made it a pain to take the car out because we'd have to move the door-length strip each time. They still got in. Thankfully, I never found one in my house. I couldn't get used to it. My skin still crawls at the memory.

Thanks everyone who switched SF 4 Austin. You guys can’t imagine how fun SF is right now! Less people less homeless new DA nice concerts outdoor and indoor. Thanks for leaving SF sorry Austin!
