About Creedmoor
Creedmoor is a small unincorporated community in Travis County with a population of approximately 250 residents. Located south of Austin near the intersection of SH-45 and I-35, Creedmoor sits in the Blackland Prairie region on gently rolling terrain used for agriculture and ranching. The community has roots as a rural farming settlement dating to the late 1800s and retains much of its agricultural character today. Creedmoor Road (FM 1327) is the main local road through the area, connecting to Manchaca Road and I-35.
