    What about Marble Falls?
    Too big! Thru traffic is horrible! (and getting worse). We made the trip often when we visited relatives in Waco.
    Marble Falls is a nice town but yes, the through traffic is horrible.

    Besides that though it is a good size with plenty of amenities. Nice location too being on the Colorado river and just far enough away from Austin to not be bothered by it. Close enough you can visit though.

    I am in Bullard which straddles the Smith and Cherokee county line. Guesstimate of population is about 5,000. Post Office, Brookshires, Whataburger and a few local eateries. 15 minute drive to Tyler which has most of the necessities plus traffic and enough Karens to make you want to limit your time there.

    Bullard is green field and forest cattle country with great people. Worst part is the City Council which would rezone Grandma’s outhouse if they thought a builder would put up 15 houses on an acre so Dallas people would buy them and then try to make everything an HOA.

    I have lived in 10 different cities and towns and this part of East Texas is seeing ill planned and excessive growth which will destroy everything for the sake of money.

    Austin - Rockdale
    I've been in Rockdale for about 10 years. I like it because nobody bothers me. They probably think I'm that weird guy than never talks to anyone, tho :laughing:
    The only people in town that recognize me are the guys that have worked at Tractor Supply for several years.

    Burnet is absolutely horrible do not even consider it as a place to live.

    Well if you are a Trump voter we might make room.

    Little Elm
    Is it small if its connected to DFW?

    I love little elm. I hate leaving even into frisco.

    I love the lake and trails.

    I have looked at a couple of places in Rockdale on zillow. Back home bars in Rockdale opened early in the morning for those who worked graveyard.
