Mariposa Flats - Unclaimed

Riverside sits southeast of downtown Austin, along the Colorado River and Lady Bird Lake, with warm summers and mild winters. The lakeshore and nearby trails offer room for walking, cycling and time outdoors; Roy G. Guerrero Colorado River Metro Park adds open space and recreation, including a playground and disc golf course. Dining and coffee options range from casual neighborhood spots to places along Riverside Drive, while shopping and everyday services cluster along major roads. Downtown’s museums, live-music venues and nightlife are a short trip away, and the area’s proximity to the river gives it a distinctive outdoor edge. Local bus routes connect Riverside with central Austin, and major roads provide additional access. Riverside neighborhood rental data show a median rent of $1,467 per month and a typical range of $550 to $7,500.
