Welcome to Lockhart!

Though we may be located near the Austin metro, Lockhart is the epitome of small-town living. We’re the “next frontier” of the Austin MSA, independent of Austin’s sky-high prices and have plenty of room to grow. Our residents are authentic and take a laid-back approach to life, giving Lockhart its character and diverse culture and filling our community with a warm, welcoming atmosphere where anyone will feel at home! 

Big-City Possibilities Without Big-City Costs

With a crime rate lower than the metro, state and national benchmarks, a low cost of living, and median home prices that’ll make you hold onto your hat, you can enjoy a relaxed, small-town life filled with big-city possibilities.

A Friendly Place to Live and do Business

We love welcoming new residents and businesses to Lockhart! In our business-friendly small town, you’ll find a slower-pace of life where neighbors and strangers greet each other with a smile and businesses work hand-in-hand to help one another. In Lockhart, we support each other through close-knit friendships and community collaboration.

From our iconic courthouse built in 1894 and historic 19th century facades lining the downtown square to our many beautiful Victorian era homes and serene outdoor spaces, Lockhart offers an authentically Texas experience.
