Located in Central Texas and the American Southwest, it is the 11th-most populous city in the United States of America and the fourth-most populous city in the state of Texas. It was the third-fastest-growing large city in the nation from 2000 to 2006. Austin is also the second largest state capital in the United States. Austin has a population of 865,504 (2014 estimate).
