2nd Topic 5 themes of geography

The 5 themes of geography have a big presense in Austin. Our location, movement, region, human environmental interaction, and place are very uniqe to our area. There are 2 types of location, relative and absolute. Our relative loction is that Austin is in the heart of Texas we are south of Dallas, west of Houston, and northeast of San Antonio. Our absolute location is 30N 97W. The movement of our area is very diverse. We have trains, planes, and cars. We are also working to build a railway system. Our region is also arrguably the most diversion in Texas and possibly whole southwestern United States. Austin is in a individual region due to the fact that we are in a specific area where 3 diverse regions meet. These regions are the rolling hills of the hill country, the lush trees of the eastern texas forest, and the plains of the panhandel. The human environmental interaction is also individual to this area. With the expanding population we are having to adapt and we are doing this in many ways such as, paving the new roads, creating stronger bridges and building taller towers. Place is plants in animals in the area. There are many plants are in Austin some of the main are live oak trees, oak trees, cedar trees, and short grasses. Our animals also range in types and sizes, such as white tailed deer, armidilos, hawks, coyotes, as well as many more.
