I would suggest you drive and walk the areas. It will be very different.
Will depend on the "life" you want.
While all areas of Downtown ( Central business District which both are in) will have traffic issues. Rainey is pretty congested and overrun now. Remember that Rainey will be very different once Covid is gone. Weekends are crazy... but if you want that..... it's your place.
The big plus Is the lake!!!!!! And that is a HUGE Plus.
Linden will be a less crowded environment ( except game days)
I live nearby.... the area will continue to grow and get more restaurants.
I think West Ave district is the new frontier. There is also rumored a large new Marriott brand on Lavaca and 18th.
The lake is a quick bike ride. And West 6th/Whole Foods is walkable to food and drink.
It will depend on the environment you want. And I'm sure there will be plenty of opinions on value. I do like the clean lines of the Linden . I also think value will be driven by proximity to Capitol, Dell med. .... plus the new courthouse across the street.
So... walk the areas. How "in the middle " or on the edge do you want to be?
Good luck!
