About

Living in Bertram

Bertram is a tiny Burnet County community along Highway 29, serving as a quiet waypoint between Georgetown and the Highland Lakes region. With a population of just over 1,500, Bertram offers a rural lifestyle with easy access to the recreational opportunities of Lake Buchanan and Inks Lake.

The town retains its ranching heritage and offers some of the most affordable property in the greater Austin area. For buyers seeking a country homestead within an hour of Austin's job market, Bertram represents a genuinely affordable option.

Angie's Guide to Bertram

Bertram is one of those places most Austin buyers have never heard of, and that is part of its appeal. If you want five acres and a view for the price of a condo in Cedar Park, Bertram is where you start looking. It is not for everyone — amenities are limited and you will drive for groceries — but for the right buyer, it is a gem.
