The good, the bad, and the hippos - 7/6/2022
I have lived here for 2 years. There is no grocery store in this city of 26,000 people. You have to drive 15 min and cross a toll road to get to HEB or drive to Round Rock or Taylor to get to Walmart. It's dumb. HEB is considered to be the Hutto HEB but they must have done some kind of deal with the city because they are not even on the same side of the toll road than 99% of the city residents.

We then looked in Pflugerville and Round Rock. We actually bid on five houses and got outbid on all of them. One we even bid 11k over asking. I had pretty much given up on looking until my mom, from New Mexico, found a house for me to look at in Hutto. I took my son to the house and instantly fell in love. Hutto is such a nice little town with an easy commute to Austin, Round Rock, Pflugerville and Georgetown. We bid 7k over asking and got the house. We paid 207,000 for a three year old house that is 3/2/2 and about 1900 sqft. Schools are really close, neighbors houses are a good distance away and the neighborhood is nice and quiet overall. This house in Austin would probably be around 350k. We went to a high school football game on opening night and the community has a lot of sincere
