Travis County, Texas
The heart of Texas beats in Travis County. Austin, the state capital, dominates the scene here. It’s weird. It’s wonderful. It’s growing like crazy.
The county stretches from the Edwards Plateau to the Blackland Prairie. You’ve got hills to the west, flatlands to the east. Lake Travis is a popular spot for boating and swimming. Travis County is a melting pot of politics, music, and innovation.
The tech industry is booming, but you’ll still find plenty of old-school Texas charm. Traffic can be a nightmare. But the food scene? Out of this world. It’s not your typical Texas county, that’s for sure.
