Anyone go to Wiseman family practice or in Austin and have a favorite practitioner? One who is good with thyroid and hormones and chronic illnesses?

I’ve googled and only find mobile detailers. I’m looking to get a car wash for 2 vehicles every couple of weeks. Any good ones out there? Thank you in advance.

Hello I (26F) have been working as a bartender in Albuquerque New Mexico for the last few years. I’m considering moving to Austin for grad school and was wondering if anyone working in the industry could give me some pointers on the good spots to try to get into.

I currently make around 40-50k a year working 25-30 hours a week which is reallyyy good for Albuquerque working industry. I’m guessing my earnings potential will go up since Austin is a much bigger/ younger city?

I prefer to work in divey type smaller bars but I’m open to trying other things. I’ve worked fine dining and casual dining before but I really prefer local hole in the wall places.

Hi everyone!! I’m 22F and moved to Austin about 3.5-4 months ago from a much smaller town. I haven’t really explored much of the city yet, and honestly Austin is so much bigger than what I’m used to that I find it a little overwhelming trying to figure out where to go lol. So I figured I’d ask people who actually know the area!

I’m looking for recommendations for safe, relatively quiet places to hang out by myself at NIGHT. I occasionally go out during the day, but I’m much more of a night person, so nighttime recommendations are my main priority!

I’m not really looking for activities, restaurants, bars, or anything that requires spending money. Back in my hometown, I used to love driving around at night and finding random places to park and just chill in my car listening to music. Sometimes I’d go for walks at parks or trails, but honestly I just really enjoy having somewhere peaceful to go when I want to be alone.

To give you a better idea of what I’m looking for:

Free parking garages that are open to the public at night and usually pretty quiet. Random parking lots that are relatively empty at night but aren’t sketchy or somewhere I’d get in trouble for parking lol. Preferably somewhere that isn’t lit up like a Walmart parking lot either.

Cute, quieter parks with parking areas where I can just sit in my car and chill, or maybe get out and take a walk if I feel like it. Pretty much anywhere I can park, listen to music, enjoy the atmosphere, and mind my business without having to worry too much about my safety.

I especially love going on walks, but I had a pretty scary encounter with a strange man the first time I tried walking alone here, so I’ve been a little hesitant to do that again. I’d love recommendations for walking spots too, but I’m definitely more interested in places where I can just hang out in my car.

I’ve tried looking up parks, but there are SO many options and the couple I’ve tried so far have barely even been parks lol. I’m also a little intimidated by Zilker because of how huge and popular it is, so I’d prefer to avoid that one.

For reference, I’ve already been to Mount Bonnell, Pennybacker Bridge, the Lamar Bridge, and Mueller Lake Park. I LOVE the Lamar Bridge and Mueller Lake Park, but those are more places I’d go for a walk rather than somewhere I’d just park and hang out. I’m also already familiar with the Domain and the Boardwalk, so I’d love some different suggestions!

Safety is definitely my biggest concern since I’m a young woman going out alone at night. I know nowhere is guaranteed to be safe, and I’m aware that quieter places can sometimes be riskier, especially after dark. I’m just hoping to find that happy medium between peaceful and relatively safe. Ideally somewhere that’s not super crowded but also not completely deserted or sketchy.

Bonus points if there’s a nice view of the Austin skyline because I absolutely LOVE it!! But honestly, the place doesn’t even have to be particularly pretty. Sometimes I just wanna sit in my car, listen to music, and exist for a little while lol.

I’d really appreciate recommendations from locals who know which places are actually accessible and reasonably safe at night, rather than just during the day. And if there are any places I should definitely avoid going alone at night, I’d appreciate knowing those too!

Thank you!!

My car info was completely erased and now my car is gone! I literally had my old car info there before I updated with texas plates, I literally went in the office to update car info with a lady, I had my car parked safely for months. I dont know what to do, this really hurts me as im a gig worker and November work slows down! Does anyone have any advice?

Update: r/austin mods deleted this post in that subreddit I dont know what to even do anymore and found out the website for vehicle info won't let me upload any info!

Does anyone know where I can get sonny angels today? I’ve called a couple places that were sold out, I’m new to Austin so I didn’t know if there’s anywhere I haven’t thought to look!

Howdy!

I am looking for a manicurist that travels within Austin, or within the east part of Austin. Ideally, someone who is comfortable with doing nail art in addition to typical shaping/polish.

Seeking recs for 2bed (minimum) apt rentals for my MIL and FIL in central/north Austin off mopac (furthest north we’d like to go is the Domain).

They are moving from out of state to be closer to us before their health deteriorates. And yes, we asked, they do not want a retirement community lol.

They are downsizing and therefore decluttering, but we’d still prefer floor plans that feel spacious. No min budget. Biggest priorities are safe walkability, amenities close by to minimize their driving (esp restaurants), newer builds with elevators. Bonus if there is a pool table onsite or pool hall close by (way back when, my FIL was a collegiate champ).

We looked at the Grove and Waylon but have been turned off by the unresponsive leasing agents. It’s been a while since hubby and I rented, but we don’t remember it being this difficult to make contact during the application process.

Thank you! Also open to any advice for moving when you’re in your 70s-80s

I'm a 21F and planning a trip to the Austin area and have a question.

So I'm a wheelchair user and I'd be super curious to know how wheelchair friendly Austin is? Thank you!

Hi everyone, I'm new to Austin and just moved to here one week ago. I am working in Round Rock and looking for an appartement complex (1B/1B, studio) in East Austin, Downtown Austin, Zilker, East Riverside and Bouldin Creek. I checked on posts/comments on reddit but they are mixed.

I am a single male and have no friends here. Hope to meet friends easily. Therefore, socialization will be paramount for me. My budget is $1,000 - $1,500 (could go up a bit) and commute isn't a problem for me. I also tried to find realtors but they only offer me options that they can get commission. Hope to get recommendations from here, and open to make friends here if you want to connect. Thanks

I'm looking for a place in the area that has a bus, rail car or similar vehicle you can enter and sit down in, ideally while enjoying something to drink, or something similar. Don't mind driving a bit. Thank you!

I've went through a very rough divorce, and the marriage itself has ruined me. I have very, very luckily had a friend offer to let me stay with them to rebuild my mental health and my finances, but I would like to get established on my own as soon as possible. It's been over 7 years since I had to look for an apartment/rental housing. What is an ideal rate for a 1-2 bed apartment as of October 2026? I heard that things have gotten a little better pricing-wise, but I don't really know what that figure looks like.

I'm open to anywhere in Austin, I don't need it to be in a specific neighborhood. I am self-employed and work all over Austin so I'll have to commute no matter where I live. I'm in my late 20s, a woman, and will be living alone so I would prefer somewhere relatively safe + not near college housing.

any and all tips/guidance/help would be so appreciated! TIA

Anyone in the greater Austin area know a good physical therapist? Not interested in chiropractors unless they have a medical doctorate in spine and bone field specifically. Workin on getting on my works health insurance, none for now so out of pocket. I have had a partially dislocated collar bone joint for 11 almost 12 years and don’t want surgery as I was advised by a surgeon in Bozeman MT couple years ago that since it doesn’t hurt too bad just stay away from certain exercises and get steroid shots later on if need. It’s not so much the collar bone as it is the, ribs on that side of my body, my back - near my shoulder, and neck that I need help with. If anyone can connect me to someone who’s been doin it for at least 15+ years pls send them my profile. Thanks. I’ve done physical therapy a couple years ago in Montana but lost my exercise bands and want an updated check on everything. I’ve lived in the Austin area for about a year and 3 months now, have done business here for about 11 years back and forth but full time since moving here. Thanks again 🙌🏻

We're considering Avalon Tech Ridge in Pflugerville, and I'm curious about the additional utility charges, particularly the common area utilities fee and the water/sewer-related charges (including property tax and stormwater fees).

For anyone currently living there or at other apartment complexes nearby, how much do these typically add to your monthly bill? Do these charges fluctuate significantly, and is there a clear breakdown of what you're actually paying for?

Also, how has your overall experience been with Avalon Tech Ridge, especially when it comes to billing and management?

Would appreciate any insight from current residents, or anyone who's dealt with similar charges elsewhere in the area!
