About Manor
A fast-growing city about 12 miles east of downtown Austin along US 290, Manor (pop. ~18,000) markets itself as Austin's "Eastern Frontier." Founded as a farming community, it has become a value play for commuters: master-planned communities like Shadow Glen, Whisper Valley, Presidential Glen, and Carriage Hills alongside older Manor neighborhoods. Samsung's nearby semiconductor investment and the SH 130 toll road are accelerating growth.
