Kyle: Hays County Exurb on the Austin-San Antonio Corridor
Kyle sits along Interstate 35 about 21 miles south of downtown Austin. The city was platted in 1880 by the International-Great Northern Railroad and named for Fergus Kyle, a local rancher who donated land for the townsite. For more than a century the population stayed small, under 3,000 as recently as 1990. Development pressure from both Austin to the north and San Marcos to the south changed that in the 2000s.
Census estimates put Kyle's population over 65,000 by 2024, an increase of more than 2,000 percent since 1990. New subdivisions run west from I-35 toward Ranch Road 150 and east toward the Caldwell County line. The Plum Creek master-planned community on the east side of the freeway was among the first large-scale developments to reshape the city's footprint.
Katherine Anne Porter, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Ship of Fools, spent part of her childhood in Kyle. Her family home, moved from its original location and restored, operates as a museum run by Texas State University. The property maintains the period furniture and garden layout from her time in residence.
Kyle hosts an annual Pie in the Sky Hot Air Balloon Festival each spring. The city also adopted the nickname "Pie Capital of Texas" after being certified by the Texas Legislature following a 2009 attempt to break the world record for simultaneous pie-eating.
