Right across the street from St. Edwards University is one of the most laid back and residential neighborhoods in South Austin, but you'd hardly notice with so many local coffee houses and cool bars in the area. The Dawson community is the epitome of South Austin and with an elementary school at the heart of the community, it's a nice, quiet place to raise a family in a growing city. The majority of homes in the area were built in the 1970s and most have been remodeled and refurnished with a uniqueness people can only find in Austin. So whether you're stopping by the Crow Bar for a nightcap or a bite to eat at El Gallo, Dawson is a great place to live and just a stone's throw away from everything Austin has to offer.
