Best In Texas Real Estate™: Killeen-Temple-Copperas Cove-Lampasas
2026-08-24
Is Killeen-Temple outpacing Austin despite the latter's tech boom?
A new Dallas Fed report shows that the Killeen-Temple MSA is growing faster than Austin, driven by stable employment from Fort Cavazos and the Baylor Scott & White medical corridor. With a job growth rate of 3.8% compared to Austin’s 2.3%, this shift reflects strong regional labor dynamics rather than speculative investment.
This pattern is not seen in nearby Georgetown TX or Williamson County, where housing prices remain higher due to proximity to Austin. The Killeen-Temple MSA's real estate trajectory suggests a long-term shift toward more affordable, employment-centered growth.
