Local Spotlight: Pflugerville

Pflugerville, TX

Pfor Pflugervillers Pfew Pfear Phonetic Pfun. Some may not understand the playful culture of Pflugerville, but it’s simply a fantastic place to live and work. A very Texan city, Pflugerville’s local claim to fame is its German influenced culture and the quirky name it provides. Settled first by Henry Pfluger Sr., the community grew slowly till the MKT railroad passed by in 1904. The brief boom lasted till the great depression forced many to seek work in Austin.

1965 marks the rise of modern Pflugerville, with the city’s incorporation, whose population eventually increased by six or seven thousand percent from 1980 to today. The new population has embraced the city’s heritage fully, with the Deutschen Pfest pfestival honoring German culture and just about any sign of the letter ‘f’ being preceded by a ‘p.’ This includes the Pflugerville Pfirecracker Pfestival, the Pfestive Pfarmer’s Market, and the Pfreeze Pflop among others.
