The town was named for George Washington Glasscock who donated the land for the new town.In addition to being well known as having one of the best preserved and active historic downtowns in Texas, Georgetown is considered to be one of the best places to retire in the nation due to its warm climate year round and close proximity to both the Hill Country and Austin. A popular tourist attraction, Inner Space Cavern, is on the south side of the city.
