Why Pflugerville? Why Falcon Pointe?
Here’s what some of the area’s experts had to say…
“A solid value community”
“Celebrating 10 years,
with much more to come”
Jeff Coleman, Mayor, City of Pflugerville
The latest “100 Best Places to Live” list from Money magazine ranks Pflugerville
No. 43 in the nation for small cities; the only city in Central Texas to make the list.
Pflugerville is a solid value community, and you get more home for your money here
than anywhere else. We’ve also dropped our city tax rate every year since 2003,
adding more value for homeowners. I live in Falcon Pointe, and it is the only community in Central
Texas offering immediate highway access to the north, south, east and west. Recently, I left home at
4:55 p.m. to pick up my wife from the airport, and we were back home by 6 p.m., and that was before
the speed limit on Texas 130 was raised. Falcon Pointe also offers something you can’t get anywhere
else – true community. In Falcon Pointe I have a community of people who are my best friends.

“Working hard to keep
that small-town feel”
“Intersection of the future”
Eldon Rude, Austin Director, Metrostudy
We celebrated our 10th anniversary
recently, with about four more years of
home sales in front of us. We are currently
developing over 200 new homesites,
including new neighborhoods south of
Central Park. We’re excited about our new
South Entrance and the new roadways
that will provide residents with convenient
access to Pflugerville Parkway and FM
685. We’re also excited about the future
improvements to Kelly Lane. In every way,
the future looks very bright for Falcon
Pointe and Pflugerville.
Floyd Akers, Executive Director,
Pflugerville Community Development Corp.
When I talk to clients, I point out the
intersection of the Texas 45 and Texas 130
highways. There’s nothing else in Central
Texas like it, with freeway access in all
four directions. It is truly one of the major
intersections of the future in this region.
Pflugerville is also a great value at a time
when housing prices are rising due to
the imbalance of lot supply and demand.
Prices here are still in the $200,000s to live
in a master-planned community like Falcon
Pointe. The quality of the Pflugerville
Independent School District is another very
important strength for the area.
November 12, 2012 – Groundbreaking for new road
connections and the new South entrance for Falcon Pointe.
L to R, Floyd Akers of the Pflugerville CDC, Vaike O’Grady,
Bill Meyer, Rainer Ficken of Newland Communities, and
Jeff Coleman, Mayor of Pflugerville.
Pflugerville is a city of 50,000 but it feels like
a city of 20,000, because we work very hard
to maintain our small-town atmosphere. We
actually have the room to grow to a city of
250,000, and a footprint the size of Plano.
In the first quarter of 2013, 250,000 square
feet of new manufacturing space will open,
adding $110 million to our tax base. Texas is
on the top of the list nationally for economic
development, and Pflugerville is a shining
star. We’re five minutes from both Dell and
Samsung. We have the highest median
income and the most highly educated
population of any city in Central Texas.
“Expanding business community benefits residents”
Patricia Gervan-Brown, IOM, President & CEO, Pflugerville Chamber of Commerce

The business community of Pflugerville is catching up with the residential growth, which is good for
our tax base and residents. Sales tax revenues are already up 22% in the first three months of Fiscal
Year 2013. The Stone Hill Town Center is a thriving economic base. The school district has also done
a great job of anticipating and keeping up with growth, building on average a new school every year
in the past decade. All of the major healthcare networks are represented in Pflugerville, along with
several urgent care centers.
