Austinites are pretty easy to spot…no matter where you find us! It’s an unspoken badge that we wear, and that we’re darn proud of too. People call us weird, hippies, hipsters – you name it! We embrace it! If you’re an Austin transplant, some of these may not be familiar but don’t worry…you’ll get used to them eventually! Here are the ways you can spot someone from Austin.

1. We fashion some sort of "Keep Austin Weird" memoribilia.

2. We wear flip flops during winter, summer, spring, and fall...as long as the sun is out it's fair game!

3. When we order QUESO from a restaurant, we don't mean shredded or melted cheese...we mean QUESO.

Here in Austin, we’re pretty chill. We don’t ask or expect much…just a good time, happy smiles, and for you to be yourself. This is what we preach and what we exude every single day. Maybe this is why you can spot us from anywhere in the world.
