City - Giddings

Giddings is a small town in the suburbs of Texas situated between Austin and Houston. The city is about 60 miles east of Austin and about 100 miles west of Houston. Though major metro areas are within driving distance via Austin Street, Giddings offers its residents a secluded, small-town feel that’s very alluring to renters. This family-friendly suburb boasts excellent public schools and safe residential neighborhoods.

To top it off, Giddings provides affordable rentals ranging from apartments and houses to townhomes. There’s something for everyone in this suburban oasis. Historic landmarks like the Lee County Courthouse reside in the heart of Giddings, along with an array of local businesses and conveniences from locally owned restaurants and markets to antique shops and banks. Residents enjoy the open green space and playground at City Park, and you’ll often find locals dining at one of the restaurants around town like Reba’s, a cozy pizzeria.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
