Anyone know what houses and condos go for in Old West Austin?
And what makes that area so great?
Does it flood there alot?
Is this an area loaded with 30 year olds or retirees?
What is there? Feedback, please.

What do you mean by Old West Austin? I think of 35 to the East, 360 to West, 183 to the North and Town Lake to South. Hard to find a house for under $500K, the appeal is that houses are varied, lots of mature yards/trees, lots of native/local businesses and lack of big boxes. Population is varied- young (college) and old (long time residents). It's a great place to live and worth every (last) dollar!

I don't know the streets, but it was said to me that Old West Austin was a great neighborhood. Is there another name for it??? I have been trying to find something about it on Craigslist.com, but no luck there. Help!

OWANA - Old West Austin Neighborhood Association
Gotcha...not "old, west austin" but Old West Austin. bounded by Lamar, Town Lake, Mopac and Enfield....well, I think what I said about it being varied in architecture, mature trees and landscaping, local businesses and pedestrian/bike friendly stand. There are more apartments and townhouse type residences there than you would find in other parts of West Austin. I love it, but $$$

Clarksville is a more specific area within the OWANA boundaries.
