Clarksville is one of the oldest neighborhoods in the city. It was founded in 1871 by Charles Clark, a freedman, as a community for formerly enslaved people on the western edge of town, and it is on the National Register of Historic Places for that reason. The small houses on the eastern streets are the surviving fabric of that community; the larger homes toward MoPac came later.
Today it is a quiet, expensive residential district with a short commercial stretch along West Lynn Street and a few more places on West 6th and West 5th at the southern edge. It is close enough to downtown to walk, which is unusual for a neighborhood that feels this residential.
Our radius is about 1 km from a point near West Lynn. The southern edge overlaps with the west end of downtown and the lake trail; Zilker is across the river to the south.

What is missing from this page
Our pull found no live music and bars, bookstores, libraries, swimming holes and pools and farmers markets inside the 1 km Clarksville radius. That means none are tagged that way in OpenStreetMap within it, which is a limit of the map data and of our district boundaries; it does not mean none exist.
Each district is defined by a center point and a radius, listed on the editorial policy page, and every place is assigned to the district whose center is nearest. Places near an edge can land on a neighbor's page. The three closest districts to Clarksville are Zilker, Rainey Street, South Congress.
