Cedar Park, Texas Travel Guide

One of the fastest-growing communities in the country, Cedar Park is located northwest of Austin on US 183. Now primarily a suburb of the capital city, this was once "cedar chopper" country, the home of many Scottish immigrants who cut the local juniper (locally called "cedar") trees to provide fence posts for area ranches. This generations-old trade is still plied by some Hill Country families.
