(78704) SoCo / Zilker / Bouldin / Barton Hills / Travis Heights Apartments
Living in 78704 Comes Down to the Block You Choose
South Central Austin Apartments (78704) Walkable pockets, new and older buildings, premium ZIP pricing, and real trade-offs.
The reviews below tell you what’s actually walkable (most of 78704 isn’t), which pockets actually have the vibe, and whether the premium is worth it for you. 78704 properties screen harder than other South Austin ZIPs. Know that before you apply. Saves you money and frustration. If Barton Springs matters to you, here’s the local knowledge: free swim runs 5-8am and 9-10pm (no lifeguards), Tuesday and Wednesday mornings have only 20-30 swimmers versus weekend chaos, and it’s closed Thursdays 9am-7pm for cleaning.
South Austin’s reputation is earned—but so is the price tag. The difference between “I love it here” and “I’m paying for a ZIP code” comes down to which specific block you land on.
