Travis County is located in the heart of Texas and is home to the State Capitol. We are in one of the most prosperous and fastest growing areas of Texas. The Extension staff provides a high level of expertise in the areas of Youth Development, Agriculture and Natural Resources, Horticulture, Nutrition and Health, and Family and Consumer Issues..

A lot of times Texas gets a bad rep in the rest of the country for being a little backwards and parochial. It is often described as a place where traditional values often trump basic common sense. But this is not always the case and it is certainly not the case in Travis County. As the home to the state capitol of Austin, it is the base for a more progressive Texas that is in step with the art and culture of the rest of the county, while at the same time still being the Texas that we have all come to expect. Folks here still go to BBQ’s they still love football and baseball and they still remember the proud traditions of the people that created this state over a century ago.

It is this great combination of progressive and traditional values that has propelled Travis county into the realm of one of the best real estate investments of all time in the state. You can come here and find a home for a very low price and you can just imagine the resale value in a community where people from all over the country are flocking to, to find their dreams.
