Maybe it’s our hometown vibe or our low crime rate combined with affordable living and high quality of life. Or could it be our small-town downtown where the folks are friendly, the live music tickles your ears just right and the eats are oh so delicious? Whatever it is, we’ve got it right here in Round Rock and, according to Bankrate, the retirees are uncovering it!
