Twentysomethings: Austin is the latest Netflix reality TV series that'll have you hooked
If you haven't watched Twentysomethings: Austin yet, what are you waiting for?
Twentysomethings: Austin is the latest reality TV series from Netflix that has us all in a chokehold and honestly, we're not mad at it. As the title suggests, the new feel-good show follows eight twentysomethings, each from different corners of America, as they embark on a new life in Austin, Texas.
The group of young singletons all live together in a house, where they each have their own rooms—an important distinction, believe us. It's their first post-lockdown adventure and after being stuck indoors for over a year, they're ready to catch up on all the lost times by forming new friendships and romantic connections, all of course, served with a healthy dose of drama.

While the concepts are very different, people have been comparing the show to similar reality tv hits like The Circle and FBoy Island in its nature but believe it or not, finding love is not the main premise of the show, although it's definitely a big factor—but what did you expect with a group of young attractive people in one place?
So before you start wondering if there will be a Twentysomethings: Austin Season 2, here's everything you need to know about the new show, including the cast and where it is filmed.
Where is the Twentysomethings: Austin house located?
The group all live together in two houses next door to one another, one for the guys and one for the girls. It is located in Austin Texas (of course) and according to one eagle-eyed Reddit user, the houses are on 1112 Ebert Ave #A and 1112 Ebert Ave #B—a vibrant neighborhood in the city filmed full of restaurants and nightlife as we see on the show.
