You’ll find most major shopping centers nearby too. A short drive away, head to Round Rock to see the Round Rock Express take the field or enjoy both indoor and outdoor water parks. Explore the neighboring cities of Leander or Cedar Park. 

Home Prices

Median home prices in Williamson county are $435,000 while Travis county is $550,000. However, homes that are currently on the market in Georgetown start in the $285,000 range so you can easily find something within your budget.

Outdoor Adventure

Plenty of outdoor adventures await in Georgetown. A favorite attraction for locals and visitors alike, Blue Hole Park is located just a few blocks from downtown Georgetown. Have a burger at Hat Creek Burger Company and then take a short walk downhill to take a refreshing dip in the lagoon at Blue Hole Park.

Running and biking trails can be found all over the Georgetown area, including a trail system that runs through Blue Hole. Head on out to Georgetown Lake for more outdoor adventures.

Safety

Georgetown is one of the safest cities in Texas. Rated as the third safest city by safeorg.com Georgetownians enjoy a sense of community and protection. The Georgetown Police Department works in partnership with the entire community to keep every resident and visitor safe and secure.

Old and New

Historic charm and new developments collide in Georgetown. The historic square downtown includes the courthouse that is over 100 years old. Voted as being one of the Most Beautiful Town Squares in Texas, the square is home to many local businesses that embrace the historic facade on the outside and modern conveniences on the inside. Take a trip to yesteryear, bring the whole family, including the dog, and have a walk around the square.

Did that walk leave you hungry? Never fear, Georgetown offers a wide variety of eateries to satisfy your hunger. Sit down to some spectacular salmon at Wildfire, grab a smoothie at Hydrate, or get a slice at Romeo’s Pizza.

Georgetown is looking to the future with several new commercial and mixed-use developments.
