    Moving to Austin in the coming months

    Hi All..
    We are considering moving to Austin in the coming months. My husband will be working in SW Austin so was wondering what are the best areas for housing/renting.. How are the elementary schools? I've heard about Eanes School District and my son will be heading into 3rd grade.
    We are originally from Delhi so anyone who's nearby, Hi :)

    Thanks.
    H.

    This is a great area to live. The EANES school dist has great schools and I believe all the elem schools are rated exemplary.
    The Indian population is not as high as in the north but there are quiet a few.
    The house prices might be slightly higher than other areas of Austin.
    When is your planned move?
    I am from north India as well.

    i have enrolled my son in Eanes ISD elementary school for this coming year.. Overall the impression was good but lack in diversity at the schools..
    Where my husband is working, moving anywhere else (like round rock) would mean too much of a drive..
