Located about 18 miles northeast of downtown Austin, residents often travel to and from the city in about half an hour, depending on the time of day. It has a low walkability and bike score, but Pflugerville is home to its own charming attractions and has numerous parks, community events, restaurants, and shops.\u202f<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:2,&quot;335559738&quot;:240,&quot;335559740&quot;:420}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<h4 aria-level=\"3\"><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">What\u2019s Happening in Pflugerville<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:360}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\r\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Pflugerville has over 40 parks and recreation facilities and 21 undeveloped parks and greenbelts.
