"For now, Austin remains the fourth-largest city in Texas, trailing Houston (2.3 million), San Antonio (1.5 million) and Dallas (1.3 million). Austin also sits just three spots ahead of Fort Worth nationally."

 

"Austin isn't the only Central Texas city getting recognition, however. New census data also showed the fastest growing cities. Topping the chart was Georgetown, with Kyle and Leander also in the top five.

 

Georgetown reported a 14.4% year-over-year (YOY) growth, and Kyle and Leader each reported 10.9% YOY growth. Round Rock was listed at 86th on the report with 2.1% YOY growth," says KVUE.com.

Congrats to our client for going under contract on this beautiful home! She knew it was “the one” the moment she saw it — it’s the perfect fit, located in her favorite East Congress neighborhood close to her many friends. She won this house in a multiple-offer situation, and we couldn’t be happier for her. We loved working with her and hope she enjoys her dream home for years to come!
