Typical homes in the city are now valued around $173,000, slightly below the county level of about $188,950.

Inventory in Austin sits at about 20 homes, up just over 5% month over month but slightly lower than last year, and equal to roughly 2.9 months of supply that leans toward a buyer’s market.

Austin offers a quieter, close knit alternative to the faster pace of nearby Scottsburg and the Louisville metro, while still giving residents easy access to major routes like I 65. Life centers on local schools and community events, with everyday needs covered by neighborhood shops, small businesses, and casual dining.
Families appreciate the strong role of Austin High School and Austin Elementary School, which double as hubs for sports, festivals, and youth programs.

In town, parks and ballfields support Little League games and pickup basketball, reinforcing a sense of shared roots.
Residents stay connected through local organizations, churches, and gatherings at spots like the Scott County Family YMCA. For broader services and shopping, people head into Scott County or the retail corridors near Sellersburg.
