Where should Aggie grads live in Austin for the best commute?

Quick answer

There is no single best Austin commute neighborhood. Start with lifestyle fit, then use the exact employer address, office days, work-hour flexibility and route quality. Downtown workers often fit Downtown, SoCo, Mueller, South Lamar or Riverside; Domain/North Austin workers going in 4–5 days often fit The Domain, Brentwood, Hyde Park, Mueller or Downtown.
