East Austin is Austin's rapidly gentrifying creative district, full of breweries, taquerias, art galleries, and live music venues. It's edgier and more local-feeling than downtown or SoCo, with some budget-friendly options emerging along the I-35 corridor.

Pros

✓ Cheaper than downtown — save $10-20/night on similar quality✓ Best food scene in Austin (tacos, BBQ, breweries)✓ Free parking at most hotels and restaurants

Cons

⚠ Not truly walkable to downtown — need Uber or a car⚠ Gentrification means quality varies dramatically block to block⚠ Fewer well-known hotel chains, more independent properties

🛡️ Safety: Improving rapidly but varies block to block. The areas west of Airport Blvd are well-gentrified and safe. Further east, check reviews for specific hotel safety. Stick to well-lit streets at night.
