We are a community with enormous potential. The City of Taylor is located in Williamson County, the nation's 16th fastest growing county, and in the Austin MSA, frequently ranked among the top places in the country for business. There is no better time than now to invest in Taylor:
- We have more talent than jobs. Between 2000 and 2005, the population in our 15-mile radius increased 32%. Young, educated families are flocking to Taylor to take advantage of our affordable lifestyle, and our goal is to generate job opportunities for them.
- Taylor is on the pro-development side of Greater Austin. It is in our mandate to recruit industry and our entire community is unified in support of this mandate.
