Hutto – Austin Neighborhoods
Are you looking for a quiet, rural feeling town to raise your family? Where the crime rate is low, there’s a slower paced atmosphere that’s close to all the conveniences of Austin? Hutto may be for you! Hutto is located 30 minutes from downtown Austin on the SH 130 corridor.
The town of Hutto was established in 1876 when the International and Great Northern Railroad came through. During construction the railroad purchased 5 acres of land for a station stop, and the town of Hutto was born! The city was named after James E. Hutto, who was also the first postmaster.
The Orange Crush Daylily is the official flower of Hutto. The residents are very proud of their official flower, it represents adaptability, strength and the open arms of the citizens, eager to help each other. That’s quite beautiful!
For outdoor leisure and activities Hutto has several parks to enjoy. The largest is Fritz Park, located north of Hwy 79, offerings playscapes, pavilions, sports fields and walking trails. Bring the family for outdoor parties and picnics!
Hutto is a great place to raise a family, with recognized schools, smaller enrollment, and lots of school spirit, Go Hippos! If you are looking for some higher education, in 2013, sometime this year, Temple College and Texas State will open a 57 acre campus, until then they are offering some classes at former Hutto ISD facilities.
Hutto the beautiful, from the mayor’s blog…
“Keep Hutto Beautiful (KHB) was formed in 2007 “to promote the positive growth of Hutto through the sustainable beautification of our city.” Keep Hutto Beautiful not only hosts the summer and fall Farmers’ Market located at the old Co op site, but they also sponsor the annual Trash Off and Arbor Day events held each spring in addition to managing Hutto’s community garden located on the north end of East Street. KHB was instrumental in the City receiving the 2010 Governor’s Achievement Award which resulted in the “Hutto” entry sign located on Hwy 79 coming into town.”
