Pflugerville

Pflugerville is one of the fastest growing areas in Central Texas, offering a unique community with an educated and varied workforce. The city, which is situated about 15 miles north of Downtown Austin, was settled in the mid 19th century by German immigrants. The city was incorporated in 1965.

For the first 20 years in the life of the young city, Pflugerville experienced low to moderate growth. Suburban Austin growth in the mid-eighties caused a building boom in Pflugerville. Since 1985, Pflugerville has grown from less than 900 to more than 36,000 residents who have made it home for their families.

Many of them work in the nearby high-tech centers, such as Dell, Samsung, IBM, Freescale, Applied Materials, Austin Semiconducter, and Advanced Micro Devices.

With the completion of major new highways, SH-130 and SH-45, population is projected to grow 30 to 40 percent over the next five to 10 years, and more than 100,000 by 2025.
