Pflugerville is the only community in central Texas with both north-south and east-west highway access that includes major transportation highways I-35, SH-45 and SH-130.
Pflugerville is a fast-growing, vibrant community located in northeastern Travis County, in the heart of Central Texas just 15 minutes from downtown Austin. In 2015, the city celebrated 50 years since incorporating, and has grown to over 65,000 residents since German settlers first arrived in 1860. This cultural heritage not only resonates in the name, but also in the festivals, events and entertainment options available.
Pflugerville is the only community in central Texas with both north-south and east-west highway access that includes major transportation highways I-35, SH-45 and SH-130. Situated just 15 minutes away from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, a quick five-minute drive from the Austin Executive Airport, and within a 30-minute reach of two other commuter airports, its location allows a highly skilled and educated workforce easy access to connect with prominent local employers such as Dell Technologies, Apple, Samsung Austin Semiconductor, IBM, NXP Semiconductors, Applied Materials, National Instruments, and Advanced Micro Devices.
The community provides the highest quality of living and affordable services to meet the needs of its citizens, offering welcoming neighborhoods, a municipal library, civic organizations, and numerous shopping opportunities in the Central Business District and Stone Hill Town Center, the fifth largest retail center in the Austin MSA.
In 2014, the city welcomed the first water park in the Austin region, a 23-acre facility complete with a conference center, ropes and zip line course. Fitness-minded residents also benefit from 44 miles of hike and bike trails, 21 municipal parks, community pools, a recreational center, youth sports organizations, and the Northeast Metropolitan Park, the largest park in Travis County. Lake Pflugerville, a 180-acre recreational lake, provides hiking, fishing piers, and public beach access for kayaking and swimming.
