About this group

Just moved. Big friendships, fast. Make the first month count.

You landed in Austin in the last few weeks or months -- for a job, for the cost of living, for a fresh start. You want to meet people, not eat dinner alone at a food truck park. Fresh cohort every month: apartment tips, HEB orientation, and someone to grab tacos with on day two.

Group vibe

High-energy, fast friendships, generous with recommendations.
