Austin Travel Guide
Texas, United States
Austin is the capital of Texas, in the southern United States, with a population of 1,013,293. It is an inland city, so the main travel considerations are its airports and the distances between different parts of the urban area.
The city is served by Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (AUS) and Austin Executive Airport (EDC). There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Austin, so beach trips require travelling beyond the immediate area.
