Round Rock Artisian Stroll

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Realty ®

Round Rock, TX is one of the booming towns in the greater-Austin Area.  Most of it's growth has been and is continually sparked by the influx of Dell Employees, which is the biggest employer in Round rock TX, and one of the top three employers in Austin.  There are a number of events and festivities that happen in Round rock all the time these days, but by far one of the cutest events is the Artisan Stroll in historic Downtown Round Rock, right around the corner from the world famous Round Rock donut shop.  The stroll is a free family-friendly event, where Artists, musicians and performers come to entertain, and some even sell their products

The Stroll used to happen on every first Thursday of the month, but it has recently moved to 2nd Sundays and is still a big hit.  I've been a couple of times, and each time, it's reminded me why I choose to live in Round rock myself.  The vendors are friendly, and the people are happy, it's a great place and time just to take a walk, and meet people.   Just one of the other charms about Austin, a city with a down-home feel :)

Funmi,

Austin is what I hope the major centers in the country become. I was just writing today about how Downtown Oakland which has a stereotypical image of a crime ridden city will be able to overcome that image. As you may know Northern California has  large flux of people of Texas origin. I'm hoping the good ole southern hospitality and civility will make our city great as yours.

Thanks Michael,

Yes, you are right about the general image of Oakland, and I hope it changes as well.  I think that the success of the Golden State warriors in this year's NBA playoffs really gave a positive boost to the Oakland image, because if you're a basketball fan, like I am,  you became a "believer" :).  and like you said, hopefully with the influx of the southern charm, it will even bet better :)

This relaxing event sounds very similar to the Waterfront festival that Newburgh annually holds. I enjoy it for the same reasons as you do the Round Rock Artisian Stroll.
