Using GPS and online mapping sites to navigate Williamson County.

By
Real Estate Agent with The Luedecke Group

If you already live in Williamson County, then you know that there are many new roads in the county, and many more are on the way.

But if you don't live here yet, or haven't lived here very long, finding your way around may be more challenging than it was just a few years ago.

With many people now counting on GPS or maps from sites like Mapquest or Google, I just want to throw out a little word of caution. Don't rely on them too much! 

Because of the rapid growth in this area, not all of these programs are up-to-date. Although they do show all of the older roads and highways, they don't show all of the newer roads that criss-cross the area (DB Wood for example hasn't been updated on either of the aforementioned mapping sites).

To help you get around I recommend printing off a map from the city (or swinging by their office for a nice, large, colored map). You can also go to http://www.georgetown.org/departments/ds/maps/ to find all the maps Georgetown has to offer.

Good luck & drive safely!
