Location
Here shows the capitol, you can see all the buildings around it, and probably recognize it if you've lived here for awhile. Usually people out of Texas know about Austin because of its famous music shows, and know that it is the Capitol of Texas.
Place
Even if you have lived in Austin your whole life, you probably haven't been to franklins BBQ. According to some people, it is the best BBQ in Texas, the US, and maybe the world. (opinionated)
Region
We live in the region of Austin that is in a major drought. Lake Travis is 50 feet under normal capacity. The "sometimes islands" are now the "permanent islands" on lake Travis. People are now camping on the "permanent islands."
Movement
Last year the racetrack the Circuit of the Americas, was built. It has attracted racing fans from all ove the world, from countries such as Italy, Spain, Australia, and many other places. It has expanded the Austin economy.
Human environment interaction
The Mansfield dam in Austin helps keep the lake up.
It may be just a big slab of concrete meant for stopping the flow of water, but without it we wouldn't have lake Travis. We would have river Travis. I guess you gotta take the bad with the good right?
