Tucked away along the outskirts of downtown Austin, among the rolling hills lie some of the most livable centrally located neighborhoods in the area. Tarrytown sprang up by the early 1900’s and remains today as one of the preferred addresses in Austin. From cozy bungalows to spacious homes with historical designations, people can find properties that appeal to them. Generally, as you drive the streets of Tarrytown, you will see residents walking babies and dogs on their way to nearby Lake Austin or to the neighborhood parks and hiking trails. Tarrytown Center offers amenities such as a local pharmacy, coffee shops, post office and even an old fashioned barber shop.

The local newspaper West Austin News covers school and community events such as the popular Fourth of July Parade, athletic events, weddings and real estate offerings. This is just one of the central neighborhoods in Austin where people of all ages know and care about each other.
