Located just north of Austin, Round Rock has long held the title of the most highly sought after Austin suburb. In fact, it is so well known, that those relocating to Austin often know about Round Rock even before they know about Austin. Round Rock has received several awards over the past several years, the most recent being named the 14th safest city in America and the 2nd best city to live in the US. Also known for its top rated schools, affordable homes and wide range of housing, Round Rock is a no brainer for buyers looking in the suburbs. Though the city is mostly suburban, master planned communities, Round Rock does have some established homes in neighborhoods with larger lots. (If you’re looking for a newer home, try Georgetown or Liberty Hill, which both have new homes on acreage lots. Links to those posts at the end of this one.) In this post, we’ve given you a list of Round Rock neighborhoods with 1 acre lots, mapped where they are, given you a profile of the size and price home you can expect and told you a little bit about each.
