Jeff Howe lives in Buda

I have stayed in the area a few times

I personally think it’s a very cool town and a good spot, but others could say otherwise

My dad was the manager of the Foremost Dairy Farm back in the 50s and we lived in Buda.

When I was in HS in the late 60’s, we played at Buda. Their water had so much sulfur in it no one took a shower. That was the smelliest bus I’ve ever been on. 
I would expect that they’ve made improvements since then.

My wife's parents live in Kyle. They love it. Great restaurant selection too. 

I was by Hays HS the other day and looks like they're getting an indoor facility. Looked really nice.

We sold our house in Buda a couple of years ago, but only relocated to San Marcos because of my wife's work.

More restaurants/bars are popping up every week, it seems. There's plenty to do away from the I-35 corridor.

I live in Buda, on the west side.  My son has a house on the east side.  I've lived in the general area for almost 60 years, but in Buda for only 10 years.  Traffic is getting worse by the day/month/year.  I never go into Austin unless I'm heading to a UT game or it's something that I can't do/attend without it.

Thanks man, I shot @Jeff Howe a message.

We are both old and I refuse to pay out the wazoo for a house in Austin.  Just need a small yard, with a few small trees (I have about 20 mature oaks and hackberry and they are hades when they drop their leaves), and a pool for the grand kids.

Gotcha.

I've already adopted Brooklyns down South in Buda, and like the 6 creeks area because it is way thew heck out of the maddening traffic.  620 now is murder.

They have, but I'm still getting the water softener/conditioner whole house, and a r/o system under the sink.  Save the plumbing.

Well, if I pull this off, there's a big OLED TV at Best Buy with my name on it😄.  BBQ and brew is on me.

That is the South Austin suburbs!!  I liked playing the Plum Creek golf course, though.

Awesome, that was my next post!  Course is a stone's throw from 6 creeks, and I have a bunch of balls that I need to lose🤣
