Best Cemetery

Texas State Cemetery

Of course it's the best cemetery in Austin; it's the most coveted burial spot in the state, with residents such as Barbara Jordan, Bob Bullock, and even our town's namesake, Stephen F. Austin. Don't even try to reserve a space; the only folks who get a headstone here are state officials and those specified by legislative proclamation (and we all know how long it takes the Legislature to do anything).
