North Austin Apartments
That area north of the east-west portion of Highway 183 between 1325 (aka Mopac, Loop 1) and IH 35 (and a bit east) up to Wells Branch Parkway and Shoreline Drive is the area known as North Austin. Home to many high tech companies including IBM and Texas Instruments, the area includes major park and recreational facilities too. In general, the further north of 183 the lower the North apartment rental rates.
