History
The community of Round Rock began in 1851 on the banks of Brushy Creek, near a large round and anvil-shaped rock (hence the name). This rock marked a convenient low-water crossing for wagons, cattle and horses. The first postmaster of the community initially named the area as ”Brushy” and the creek was simply added. However, in 1854 at the suggestion of the postmaster it was renamed to Round Rock. Today the community is considered one of the fastest growing cities in the country and one of the best managed in the state of Texas. It is able to maintain a high quality of life for its residents while also becoming a center for economic expansion in central Texas.
