Austin is the motherland of a delicate and wonderful town of just 870 inhabitants known as San Felipe the Austin. This community named to honor the memory of Stephen Austin is hugged by Sealy, Pattison, Brookshire, Simonton, and Wallis territories. As a puzzle piece of the Houston-Baytown metro area, this municipality elevated more than 150 feet above sea level is located less than 40 miles away from Sugarland, 40 miles away from Northwest Harris, and almost 50 miles away from Houston. If you are visiting this corner of Texas served by the Sealy Independent School District, remember to adjust your watch to the Central time zone.
