Close to grocery stores, shopping, restaurants, schools, and parks/green spaces - great & convenient location with quick access to highways. The demographics here are also pretty diverse, so it's easy to feel comfortable and at home. "

    "Manchaca has gotten very busy in the last few years. Many people use it as a cut-through neighborhood to avoid traffic and get downtown. There aren't a lot of lights, so people drive way too fast in the area. Left turns are a nightmare."

    "I would not recommend this area for families. Cars drive too fast, and shoulders on the sidewalks are non-existent, which means a distracted driver could easily jump the curb and hit a person. There also isn't a lot of green space or parks for kids to play in."

    "I have been a resident of this neighborhood for over 30 years. It is safe, quiet and well-established. The location is great, with access to Ben White, Mopac, I-35 and South First is a straight run into downtown. There are two bus stops within a block. The house is located in between Central Market and Southpark Meadows and four movie theaters are 5 minutes away."
