How much does parking cost in Austin, TX? 🚗 💸

[@mcoo465]

Austin is no longer “weird”.

[@ds-cd7my]

First mistake is parking in private lots. Sometimes garages are $10-20. Meter parking is way cheaper, maybe $10 max, Sundays are free. Only thing is you just got to drive around till you find a spot.

[@llIlIIlIlIIllIll]

Sounds like a good way to pollute and create more traffic.

[@dismalrealms3587]

​@@llIlIIlIlIIllIll pollute?😂 🤡

[@llIlIIlIlIIllIll]

@dismalrealms3587 is there a problam?

[@ericgarcia7868]

This is Austin, Texas Texas. No one pays to park.
It’s cheaper to pay a parking ticket

[@pricklypear7934]

That's bull.

[@ScaredDonut]

@@pricklypear7934 I just checked its $20 - $35 fine if you pay early lol.

[@shadetreebrews]

It's a couple bucks an hour to use the City's app, not sure where these guys are parking but it's not public parking.

[@MikeJordanGroupie]

This is ATX 2024, not Austinville 1883. Don’t know where in ATX you’re tying up your stagecoach.

[@zlimydonut1573]

When I worked for moody center in Austin Texas, I had lots filled with $60 parking… people pay it

[@bballgoat8830]

This isn’t normal parking, I work downtown everyday, convention parking is $10 for 10 hours and $3 each extra hour, a street ticket for parking is $20 and it’s normally like $6 an hour to park on street. These guys parked in a private lot.

[@mannyordunez3949]

Don't lump Austin in with the rest of Texas

@sheldoneuos both states have their problem areas. Sadly Cali's problem areas dictate how the rest of the nice areas of the state live.

You’re a couple years slow

[@scotto9591]

I have an Uncle in Austin. He says he just doesn't even go downtown anymore due to the parking fees.

[@elsamorales3350]

😅😊

[@jparniawski]

I don't go downtown here because it's no longer affordable or fun like before the Commiefornia Invasion.

[@mojoschmee9320]

The parking fees are one of many reasons most residents avoid downtown like the plague. Sucks, too, because Downtown Austin used to be so much fun.

[@BulletSerenade]

And the crime, and the homeless, and the traffic and Austin sucks

I'm a true Austinite and I can't stand this city anymore. Everything is ridiculous

I went DT today to get a burger from Not a Damn Chance burgers @ 7th and Trinity; Stuck up a conversation with a guy and said "the burgers smell good cooking", he replied, "It smells like piss"... Basically the vagrants have turned it into a smelly cesspool.

It wasn’t like that before the Californians got there.

You probably blame them for your power grid too. Buncha whiners.

[@Dcdc956]

Yeah sure. Keep crying

My brother works in downtown LA couple times a month and he told me it cost over $80 to get a day pass for parking.

[@KYS0824]

Cap, I work in the heart of DTLA at a banking building early bird is $20 after that it's $44. And there's alot of places around the area that are below $15. Stop trying to make Texas look better by comparing to LA. It is what it is.

[@jus4funtim]

park at the closest free parking then call an Uber to take you the mile or two or five

[@mojoschmee9320]

Shhhhhhh. This is our secret.

[@jfreshwater1406]

Damn it's only 10 bucks to park downtown for a baseball game in CLE....y'all crazy down there

[@DoktorDry]

It's not that expensive if you don't park in the obvious marked places with the huge signs.
There's parking garages absolutely everywhere, they're just hidden pretty well so they don't make things look super ugly. It's nice

[@lordcenaruuk]

I’m sorry you had to visit New Southern California. Stay ⭐️ AT! 🇺🇸

[@jamescampolo7824]

And that's if you can find a spot. I tried to go to the farmers marked downtown Austin 15 years ago and had to walk forever.

[@user-cj4lr2uh6c]

Nashville is as bad now. They will boot your car one minute after your time is up and they have an officer to take your boot off and on on the lot at all hours.

[@irandude1655]

That's criminal. I just realized i have never been back downtown since the pandemic.

[@_MECRONANCER_]

"Austin" is roughly 300 square miles....almost all street parking is free...

[@ArnieTex]

😂🤣🥲

[@jonnyjames862]

The parking here in Austin is ridiculous. I was 10 minutes late to my car after playing a show and loading up gear and a private lot slapped me with a $70 fine…

[@avidbatmanenjoyer2001]

I used this parking service! It’s actually really convenient and now I only use their parking lots, and it costs less than you’d think

[@69meplease100]

Kinda glad i got out of there. Used to be a really awesome place

[@anthonycastro6545]

Yeah downtown Austin is crazy man, they fucken trippin here with the parking prices. Yes they’re place that cost $5,10,15 but then you walk like 5 miles total lol

[@ToddsterSaw]

You get what you vote for. All you have to do is look at who runs the city.

[@rotaryperfection]

Yea, these mayors are something else.

[@poppat3238]

I thought Austin was the largest growing city/economy in TX. Texas sucks so bad.

[@J-Mac8]

Yeah LA brought their BS with them

[@SixDaysOTR]

​@poppat3238 Correction, Austin sucks so bad. Pretty much all the major cities do in Texas. All ran by democrats...
But smaller cities and towns is where the fun is. Lakes to fish, land to hunt, camping, BBQ, wine and friends within the community.

[@hotspot1564]

Its the company. Do we not know how business works? Are we 13? A company owns a lot and rents it to people that want to park. How in the fuck is it any candidates problem?

[@PeppeRouniKenshin]

Oooof that's insane

[@Waxiestspoon9332]

I totally thought that tip option was real lol😂

I wonder what they would do if nobody paid

[@Scrantonicity2]

Parking ticket at 2 times what they trying to rob you

[@siamimam2109]

Your car gets towed. ESP if it’s a private lot. I drive for Uber and i have taken 20-30 people to the towing yard because they didnt pay

[@siamimam2109]

Find street parking nearby. Usually $2-3/hr

[@abovegk]

Not to mention they will tow you on so BS excuses as well. Even in spots that company’s swear to god are safe to park in. The towing company’s are in on it as well. Waiting just around the corners. I hate going down town because of it

[@MNProductionStudios]

I don’t pay for street parking in Austin the ticket is $20 and normally to park is $3 for two hours. I’ve only gotten one ticket in the years living here. This is a private lot off Rainey , they will tow and charge up the butt.

[@miliobadillio9358]

Now imagine having to work on Rainey st constructing a building and having to park … we just said to help with that we will park a ways off and walk lmao

[@johnjacoLMSW]

Should parked just east of 35 then walk under. Less than half of that. Surge my azz.

It has nothing to do with politics or the city . These lots are real estate owned privately and choose to charge . It’s private property and nobody has the right to just park in on your land or your front right ?
