Weir, Texas
Weir is a small city in Williamson County, lying just a few miles northeast of Georgetown at the edge of the Central Texas prairie. The surrounding land is a mix of blackland prairie and gently rolling farm country, and the community has increasingly felt the growth pressing outward from the Georgetown and Round Rock corridor. Austin lies about 30 miles to the south.
Property here runs through the Williamson Central Appraisal District and the county tax office — the homestead exemption, the appraisal cap, protests, and any MUD, PID, or special districts all sit at the parcel level. The Williamson County notes below cover the practical details, with the official county directory for the appraisal district and tax office.
