What’s It Like to Live in Round Rock?
Much of Round Rock’s growth can be traced to Dell Technologies, one of the region’s largest employers. But the appeal extends far beyond jobs. The real estate market offers a wide range of homes — from new builds in master-planned communities to established neighborhoods with large lots and shaded streets.
And yes, the city’s name comes from a literal “round rock” that still sits in Brushy Creek, marking a historic crossing for 19th-century settlers.
