Round Rock Texas |
In Williamson County, Round Rock is located just north of Austin toward Georgetown on I-35 near the Colorado River.
Round Rock is part of the Austin-San Marcos, Texas metro area.
The town began to grow in the 1960s and became the site of much historic restoration and preservation work. The 1970s brought dramatic growth, as nearby Austin expanded and brought large-scale development to Round Rock. The town became a bedroom community for Austin and a site for manufacturing and industry.
Its population rose between 1970 and 1980 from 2,811 to 11,812. Growth continued in the 1980s as the city became home to several computer-related industries and over 300 retail businesses. In 1990 the population was 30,923.
