What's my home worth? →Round Rock is a mid-size city in Williamson County, about 20 miles north of downtown Austin. It's grown steadily over the past few decades and is now one of the larger cities in the Austin metro. Most people know it as the home of Dell Technologies, a well-known local donut shop, and an affiliated minor league baseball team, but that's a narrow read of what the city actually offers.
The residential side of Round Rock is more varied than its reputation suggests. Several neighborhoods are built around golf courses, including Forest Creek, Teravista, and Star Ranch. These communities tend to feature larger lots, established landscaping, and homes oriented around the course layouts. Local video tours on this page dig into exactly what makes these golf-anchored neighborhoods tick.

The downtown district has its own character, with local restaurants, a preserved main street feel, and the San Gabriel River running nearby.
For getting around, IH-35 and SH-45 connect Round Rock to Austin and the broader metro. The city has its own retail and employment base, so many residents don't need to commute into Austin daily.
