Taos is a unique and affordable student community located right on Guadalupe St! Taos is a student co-op and is democratically managed by the members who live there. Members pool resources and work together to lower our housing costs and gain more control over our living environment. The five-story building boasts views of the UT Tower and easy access to restaurants and shops on Guadalupe St. Taos is the closest co-op to UT-Austin, across the street from the northwest corner of campus. Taos is also within a block of many CapMetro transit lines, including the 1, 3, 30, 481, 642, and 801/803 routes that will connect you to the rest of the city. The co-op can house 115 members on 5 floors of residential space, plus two floors of storage and common spaces. A bathroom is shared between every two bedrooms. Common areas include a large band practice room, TV room, study lounge, rooftop sundeck, computer lab, and game room. Lease charges include utilities and internet, as well as prepared meals and 24/7 access to a stocked kitchen. Residents are asked to contribute 2-4 hours per week toward meals, cleaning, or other tasks, and by working together the co-op can handle the shopping, meal planning, and other normal daily chores.
