A reference directory of the 197 largest apartment buildings in Austin — 80,239 apartment homes across 16 neighborhoods. Every building gets a permanent page with its unit count, year built, floor count and amenities, each one checked against a published source.
This is not a listings feed. We do not sell leases, take referral fees, or rank buildings against each other. The goal is narrower: be the place where a fact about an Austin apartment building can be confirmed. Where something could not be verified, the field is left off the page rather than guessed at — an absent field means “not confirmed,” never “no.”

From the directory
Alongside the building pages we publish figures computed from the directory itself, and local guides for the people using it.
- Austin’s 197 largest apartment buildings, by the numbers — median year built 2014, median height three floors, and only eight buildings between five floors and twenty.
- Fall 2026 in Austin — ACL at 25, F1, and the one Saturday to plan around.
- Austin’s summer 2026, recapped — floods, 107 degrees, and Lake Travis full for the first time since 2019.
- How this directory was built — the sources, the method, and the rule about never guessing.
Also here: the frequently asked questions about Austin apartment buildings — the largest, the tallest, how old they are and where the numbers come from — and the A–Z index of all 197 buildings.
