A little history

Austin Southeast in Austin. Austin is the capital of Texas, a city of almost a million people on the Colorado River, named after Stephen F. Austin and built around state government, the university and the technology industry. Austin Southeast is the part of the city to the south, an area of mostly late twentieth-century suburbs built on former farmland, with Onion Creek and McKinney Falls State Park among its places.

Notable neighborhoods in Austin Southeast include:

Onion Creek. Onion Creek flooded in October 2013 and damaged hundreds of homes along its banks. The city afterwards bought out flood-prone houses so that families could move away from the creek.

McKinney Falls. McKinney Falls State Park, on Onion Creek, is named for Thomas F. McKinney, an early Texas settler and businessman, and the neighborhood around it carries his name.

Suburbs on old farmland. Slaughter Lane, Bluff Springs, Dittmar and Cherry Creek are mostly late twentieth-century suburbs, built on what had been farmland south of the city.
