Caldwell County, Texas

Caldwell Location Map Texas

Caldwell County is situated just southeast of Austin. Lockhart is the county seat, famous for its barbecue. Seriously, it’s the “Barbecue Capital of Texas”.

The San Marcos River forms the western border, perfect for tubing on a hot day. It’s mostly rural, lots of farms and ranches. But it’s growing fast as Austin spreads out.

The people are friendly, always ready to chat. There’s a nice mix of old Texas and new. Don’t miss the Caldwell County Fair because it’s a real slice of small-town life.
