The terrain is rolling Hill Country with limestone and live oak, with creek drainages running toward the lake. Tracts along RM 1431 attract builders and commercial buyers.
How Jonestown got here
Jonestown grew from a rural crossroads on the lake's north side into a small city that has been caught between the faster growth of Cedar Park and Leander to the north and east and the resort-style development of Lago Vista to the west. For years it was known for ranch land, small farms and marinas.
Today the city sits on a growth corridor, and landowners who have held tracts for decades are being approached by builders and developers, often for the first time.
