Austin is more than plaid-and-denim-loving hipsters, taco trucks and late-night live music. Besides the Texas state capitol building, Austin is also home to Southern Careers Institute’s corporate headquarters and campus–both located in South Austin.

With the city expanding and growing in leaps and bounds, it can be hard to keep up with what’s happening. Thankfully we leaned on our very own SCI Austin staff members, aka SCI Austin Map & South Austin city guide experts to give us their top picks for getting down and around South Austin.
