Transportation

The car is usually the favored method to move around in Georgetown. It is very convenient to park, and nearby highways, such as S I- 35, are rather easy to access from any location in Georgetown. This community is not especially appropriate for bicycling because there are few bike lanes, and there are a good number of elevation changes. It is also impractical for pedestrians to move around in Georgetown since few common errands can be run without a vehicle.

High schools and primary schools are not particularly plentiful in Georgetown, and consequently not always within a short distance. Apart from public schools, there are private elementary and secondary schools. With respect to food, it is rarely practical for property owners in Georgetown to purchase their groceries in one of about 30 stores as pedestrians. Nonetheless, pharmacies are typically easy to get to without a car and provide some staple foods. There are also over 300 restaurants and cafes in this part of the Greater Austin metropolitan area.
