Making the move to Burnet Texas
Investors from all over the country are making the leap to the fastest growing area in the US, the Texas Hill Country.
Long known as a great place to live, Burnet has also become a great place to invest as evidenced by Money Magazine® who listed Burnet County in January 2006 as one of "Five Rural Hot Spots" in the nation. When reviewing the information on the left of this page, you will immediately notice that Burnet has experienced remarkable growth in recent years.
Burnet is located in the heart of the Hill Country, just 50 short miles from Austin and one hour from Austin-Bergstrom Airport. Steeped in history but awash in the latest technology, Burnet can offer everything you need to make your business a success.
Burnet is located at the intersection of State Highway 29 and US Highway 281, just 35 minutes from Interstate 35 and 90 minutes from San Antonio.
