Support for Colleges in Austin, TX
Officially known as "The Live Music Capital of the World," Austin is home to a diverse selection of
attractions, including of course, live music events. In fact, Austin has more music venues per capita than
any other U.S. city, justifying its nickname. And while there are other cultural venues to explore, locals
are most proud of the city's strange statues and landmarks, such as the Hyde Park Bar & Grill fork, the
Mangia dinosaur, the Loca Maria lady at Taco Xpress, Pots and Plants Garden Center's pink flamingo
front lawn, the Hyde Park Gym's giant flexed arm and the Hi, how are you? frog mural.

Austin has been named the No. 2 Best Big City in "Best Places to Live" by Money magazine in 2006, and
No. 3 in 2009, and also the "Greenest City in America" by MSN. Meanwhile, Travel & Leisure magazine
ranks Austin No. 1 on the list of cities with the best people, which relates to the city's unofficial slogan,
"Keep Austin Weird," referring to the eclectic and liberal lifestyle of the residents. This unofficial slogan
came about in an effort to preserve small businesses in the SoCo (South Congress Avenue) shopping
district, which is home to coffee shops, unique shops, dining and more.
