A diverse neighborhood of wide streets and single-family homes, North Austin is anchored by beautifully landscaped parks and recreation facilities. Long rows of brick bungalows and wood-frame houses epitomize North Austin, which has a limited amount of commercial business and nightlife. Instead, this west side Chicago community loves its tranquility and undeveloped nature. Public parks and playlots cover acres of neighborhood land with greenery, athletic fields, tennis and volleyball courts, jogging and walking paths, playground equipment and even an outdoor swimming pool. The indoor park facilities provide North Austin residents with gyms, meeting rooms and an auditorium.

North Austin is a part of Austin.
