Grant’s direct answer
For most Sendero Austin recent grads, Grant would start with South Congress, then South Lamar and Downtown. South Congress is the strongest all-around lifestyle choice in his view, South Lamar offers another active Austin environment, and Downtown gives exceptional office convenience. Mueller is a strong newer alternative, while Riverside works best when value and airport geography matter more than walkability.
