Check out Dragon's Lair
When I was in Austin (couple of years ago now) there was a fairly active gaming community (there are several major college/universities in the area).
Your best bet is to hook up with a gaming store when you get to Austin. My favorite, for both selection of products and personable staff was Dragon's Lair Comics. They have a web site up @ http://www.dlair.net/
Good luck and have fun, Austin is a great place to live.

That is by no means the only way to find a game, but I have found several players and games that way. The above poster is correct about Dragons Lair on Burnet road, good place to start. There is also a new Dragons Lair (though smaller), in Round Rock.

Indeed, Dragon's Lair--now with two convenient locations to serve you 
--is the best place to begin your search. They both have two game nights a week, where you can find all sorts of people playing RPGs, CCGs, tactical games, and whatever else you can think of. The larger location also has a gamer's bulletin board and (I think) a gamers-seeking-gamers list.

Dragon's Lair is pretty awesome 
I live in Temple..which is about 40 minutes north of Austin if you are desperate to find a group.

Yes! I e-mailed you earlier through this message board, but don't know if you got it or not.
Do you have an established gaming group already?

Ditto on the Dragon's Lair as a good launch point. I was in a similar situation just over two years ago - having just moved here and left behind old gaming groups. Had no trouble finding a couple different groups through the Dlair message board.
Austin definitely seems to have a healthy gamers population.

Dragon's lair is great. You will note a theme here. Why Dragon's Lair you ask? uhm....Where else. The two Dragon's lair locations are really the only traditional gaming stores in the Austin area to find games through. Besides, they are great stores and they carry the vast majority of products!

Yep...add onto the fact that the owners are really cool...plus they have some really cool cats you can pet
What is a gaming store without a gaming store cat?
Damnit...I wish I could go there more often.
