Historic charm, Sun City living, and “the most beautiful town square in Texas.”
Why Georgetown
Georgetown, the county seat, blends small-town character with fast-growing neighborhoods. Its Victorian downtown square and Southwestern University give it a charm few suburbs can match. Buyers find everything from historic homes near downtown to master-planned communities like Wolf Ranch, and Sun City Texas is one of the area's best-known communities for active adults 55 and over. Georgetown ISD serves most of the city.
