Austin is 26 miles south, Dallas is two hours north, Houston is two hours southwest and San Antonio is one-and-a-half hours south, placing Georgetown in a very advantageous position for cultural and economic development. Georgetown is approximately 30 minutes north of Austin on Interstate 35.

Being located in one of the fastest growing counties in the United States, Georgetown attracts the very brightest in the healthcare and education arenas. Housing opportunities are available to meet whatever your lifestyle may be. Historic homes, modern homes on large wooded lots, close-in apartments and condominiums, or a dream home in the Texas Hill Country are some of the many options available. Georgetown is also home to Southwestern University, the oldest university in Texas.
