Jonestown Texas
Jonestown Texas
is located on FM 1431 in the north part of Travis County Texas,
approximately twenty five miles Austin. Jonestown was founded in the
late 1930s by the brothers, Warren and Emmet Jones, who envisioned a
retirement
community along the Lake Travis shores. Jonestown enjoyed its secluded
and peaceful surroundings, but things changed for the community in
the 1980s after Jonestown incorporate. Although many of the
retired residents stayed, new younger residents were drawn to the area
and the population grew.
Today Jonestown Texas still has a rural feel, with older homes, rolling
tree studded hills meet the lake and the wildlife is abundant. Most
homes were built in the 1960s through the 1990s but construction of
single family homes is still in progress somewhere in Jonestown. Many
people moving to Jonestown often consider renovating, so their priority
for a home has to do more with the lot and view rather than the house
which will be reconfigured to meet the needs of the new homeowner.
Most residents of working age make the short commute from Jonestown to
Austin and other near by communities. The traffic can sometimes be
congested during high traffic times and by the end of the day most
residents of Jonestown are ready to leave the hustle and bustle of the
city behind in exchange for the quiet streets and welcoming sight of
home. The community has several parks and a community library
while new projects are continually being considered. Hiking around
Jonestown is a popular activity and most of the surrounding wild areas,
valleys and streams are managed by the Lower Colorado River Authority,
ensuring that public access to these areas is free for all to enjoy.
