Oak Hill Gazette is a weekly tabloid newspaper serving the Oak Hill area of southwest Austin, Texas since 1995. The Gazette is published every Wednesday and has a circulation that varies from 5,000 to 6,500. The newspaper's scope is hyper-local, covering only southwest Austin area news.
The Oak Hill Association of Neighborhoods claims the Gazette is the best place to find local school news.
The paper does not run political endorsements or editorials but does publish user-generated Letters to the Editor and opinion pieces.
In 2007, the Oak Hill Gazette tied with The Onion in the Austin Chronicle newspaper's Best of Austin readers' poll as "Best Local Non-Chronicle Publication." In 2008, the Oak Hill Gazette won the poll outright.

Famous quotes containing the words oak, hill and/or gazette:
“Where he swings in the wind and rain,
In the sun and in the snow,
Without pleasure, without pain,
On the dead oak tree bough.”
—Edward Thomas (1878–1917)
“A common and natural result of an undue respect for law is, that you may see a file of soldiers, colonel, captain, corporal, privates, powder-monkeys, and all, marching in admirable order over hill and dale to the wars, against their wills, ay, against their common sense and consciences, which makes it very steep marching indeed, and produces a palpitation of the heart.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Every gazette brings accounts of the untutored freaks of the wind,—shipwrecks and hurricanes which the mariner and planter accept as special or general providences; but they touch our consciences, they remind us of our sins. Another deluge would disgrace mankind.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
