Because outdoor living in the Austin suburbs has a story of its own.
Suburban Style with a Central Texas Twist
While Austin often steals the spotlight, its neighboring cities—Cedar Park, Round Rock, Leander, Georgetown, and Kyle—are crafting their own narratives, especially when it comes to outdoor living. These suburbs blend Texas tradition with modern flair, creating backyard spaces that are as diverse as their residents.
Backyard Design That Reflects Local Culture
Cedar Park: Where Modern Meets Mother Nature
Cedar Park residents have a knack for merging contemporary designs with the natural beauty of Texas Hill Country. Think sleek pergolas adorned with native grapevines or minimalist decks that offer panoramic views of the rolling landscape. It’s a place where your backyard feels like an extension of the Balcones Canyonlands.
Round Rock: The All-American Backyard Renaissance
In Round Rock, family-friendly and functional outdoor spaces reign supreme. From expansive patios perfect for weekend barbecues to cozy fire pits that become storytelling hubs, these backyards are designed for connection. And let’s not forget the iconic Round Rock Donuts—because every great gathering needs a sweet ending.
Leander: The Frontier of Innovative Outdoor Spaces
Leander’s rapid growth brings a wave of innovative outdoor designs. Homeowners are experimenting with xeriscaping to conserve water, installing solar-powered lighting, and building multi-level decks that make the most of their spacious lots. It’s a suburb that’s not afraid to blend sustainability with style.
Kyle: Embracing the Rustic Ranch Aesthetic
In Kyle, the rustic ranch vibe is alive and well. Residents favor sturdy wooden decks, open-air kitchens, and expansive lawns that invite impromptu games of horseshoe. It’s all about creating a laid-back atmosphere where neighbors feel like family and the stars shine a little brighter away from the city lights.
Georgetown: Timeless Elegance with a Two-Step Twist (and a Side of Gordon Ramsay Drama)
Georgetown may be known for its historic charm, but let’s be real—it’s not just about the architecture. This town knows how to blend old-school elegance with a good time. Whether you’re admiring the Victorian-style storefronts on the Most Beautiful Town Square in Texas, dancing the night away at The Two Step Inn, or strolling through fields of red poppies like you’re in a country music video, Georgetown’s got a little something for everyone.
And if you’ve been anywhere near the Georgetown Square lately, you probably caught wind of a certain British chef roaming around, shouting at local restaurant owners. That’s right—Gordon Ramsay himself came through town to help struggling eateries level up their game with his show Kitchen Nightmares. While we’re still waiting to see if Georgetown foodies give it a “Yes, Chef!” or send it back to the kitchen, one thing’s for sure—our little town just got some serious culinary clout.
Backyards here tend to mirror the town’s personality—a little bit of classic, a little bit of Texas, and just enough room for a BBQ pit, a fire pit, and probably a dog named Willie. Traditional wrought iron fences line historic properties, while modern horizontal wood fencing is popping up in new developments. And let’s not forget that porch culture is strong here—you’re just as likely to see neighbors sharing sweet tea as you are two-steppin’ to live music downtown.
If you’re looking to upgrade your outdoor space, take a little inspiration from Georgetown’s blend of heritage and honky-tonk. Because whether it’s a red poppy festival picnic, a post-Two Step Inn afterparty, or a home-cooked meal (now maybe Gordon-approved?), your backyard should be ready to host the best kind of Texas memories.
Crafting Your Own Suburban Oasis
No matter which Austin suburb you call home, enhancing your outdoor space is all about reflecting your personal style while embracing local culture. Here are some tips to get you started:
