About Cedar Park
The Cedar Park Market Right Now
Prices and inventory shift month to month, so here is the live picture rather than a number that is out of date by the time you read it:
Cedar Park sits just northwest of Austin in Williamson County, home to roughly 80,000 residents and one of the fastest-growing communities in Central Texas. What started as a small railroad town has grown into a family-friendly suburb that still feels like its own place, with a strong local identity, plenty of green space, and a front-row seat to the Hill Country.
Housing runs from established 1990s and 2000s neighborhoods with mature trees to newer master-planned communities and modern build. You will find everything from starter homes to larger properties on bigger lots as you move west toward the Hill Country, which makes Cedar Park work for first-time buyers, growing families, and move-up buyers alike.
