Local Information About Pflugerville and Austin, Texas

Pflugerville

Pflugerville, just a short drive from Austin, is one of the fastest growing areas in Texas. "Pfluger" was the name of a large German family that populated this area in 1849, thus, the town became known as Pflugerville. We owe this family a huge round of thanks for what Pflugerville has become. Because of their deep moral fiber and family values, our town has grown to be a place where you will want to raise your family.

Part of Travis County, Pflugerville offers a mild climate with 300 sunny days each year, affordable housing, low cost of living, clean air, and beautiful scenic vistas. An extended hike & bike trail leads to Pfluger Park & Pool, serving the town's residents. The area is well known for its low crime and neighborly people. Taxes are among the lowest in the state for comparable counties, and Texas has no personal state income tax. The current population of Pflugerville is 11,000. With good schools and an easy commute to Austin, Pflugerville is a great place to come home to.

Both Pflugerville and Round Rock also offer great advantages to businesses. There are many new business opportunities due to the area's rapid growth, yet this part of Texas has low business taxes, low cost utilities, and a well-trained work force. Their proximity to Austin gives good access to national and international markets, and the great quality of life makes it easy to attract employees. All these reasons make Pflugerville and Round Rock some of the most desirable places to live and work in the US.

Round Rock

Round Rock, located about 20 miles north of Austin, has a population of over 61,000 residents (up from only 3,000 in 1970!). Round Rock offers great employment opportunities, easy access to local colleges and universities, federally recognized Blue Ribbon public schools, and a touch of western history. The earliest residents were the ancestors of the Tonkawa Indians, who populated the area as early as 8000 B.C. The Round Rock that we know today was initially located near the banks of Brushy Creek, at the natural fording area "by the round rock". Today, the landmark rock still stands as a tribute to the weary pioneers who were looking for a better life in the west.

Austin, the capital city of Texas, hasn't always been the bustling city it is today. The town of Austin was incorporated in 1839, and was fast becoming a city by the 1880's. Rapid growth 100 years later, in the 1970's, contributed to tremendous local political activity. As a result, strong neighborhood, environmental, and historic preservation communities sprang up, and remain an integral part of Austin's civic life today.

Diverse cultural groups have been attracted to the area throughout its history, including immigrants from Europe, Africa, Mexico, and Asia. Such diversity has enriched Austin's civic and cultural life, including its recent development as a Mecca for music fans. Today Austin is considered the nation's best read and most computer-literate city, the most fit city in the U.S., and home to the most restaurants and bars per capita than any other city in the United States!

Real Estate Contracts >Selling Before Buying Timing can sometimes be difficult if you have to sell a home before you can buy another one. Most people need the equity from the sale of their first home for the down payment on the new house. If your present home goes on the market first, you may be concerned that it will sell before you find the one you want to buy. On the other hand, if you find the perfect home before your present home is under contract, the sellers may be reluctant to accept your offer, and you may be too nervous to sign a contract. It is a good idea to sit down with a good real estate agent for some professional advice before you begin your search. It will probably be necessary to be flexible on the closing date, because it can be easier to find a home that you want to buy than to sell your present home. After finding the house you want, you can ask the lender about arranging a short-term bridge loan that can make the purchase possible before you sell your current residence.
