Central Texas
Hill Country surroundings
Central Texas is the region surrounding Austin and extending roughly from Waco south to San Antonio, characterized by Hill Country terrain, live oaks, and limestone geology.
The term lacks precise boundaries but generally excludes the Panhandle, Gulf Coast, and West Texas.
We moved to Central Texas for the tech jobs and mild winters.
