Pflugerville Community
There are many reasons why Pflugerville is one of the fastest growing cities in Central Texas. In addition to having a business friendly climate and family friendly culture, Pflugerville is also centrally located in the region and in the nation, providing the perfect location for a variety of businesses. Great location Texas sits in the middle of the United States with good access to both East and West Coasts. Just 12 miles north of downtown Austin, the city of Pflugerville sits right in between Austin and Round Rock—within minutes of Dell, Samsung, National Instruments, Applied Materials, IBM, 3M, Freescale, AMD and various other global businesses. First settled in the 1840s, the rolling hills and prairies of Pflugerville are now considered some of the most desirable areas for retail, commercial and light industrial development in the greater Austin area. Easy access With immediate access to major roadways—including Interstate Highway 35, the main trade corridor for the United States, Canada and Mexico—goods are easily shipped out of Pflugerville to other parts of the state, the nation or the world. State Highways 45 and 130 also run through the middle of the city, offering alternate north-south and east-west routes throughout the Austin area and beyond. Quick access to the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, three commuter airports, several major highways, railroads and four of the nation’s largest sea ports is why Pflugerville is expected to become an essential hub for people making their way in and around the region and the state. Family-friendly culture Perhaps most importantly, Pflugerville is committed to families. Located just minutes from several global technology companies, the city attracts a highly educated population in search of a community that provides quality housing, neighbors devoted to family, excellent schools, and a safe, healthy environment. Businesses of all types recognize the significant rewards offered by Pflugerville’s affluent and growing population. During the past 10 years, Pflugerville has more than tripled in size. Today the city has more than 50,000 residents, and is expected to continue to grow during the next five years. City leaders are dedicated to facilitating smart growth while diversifying the tax base, and to providing strong support to both commerce and a culture of community. |
