About Zip Code 78674

Zip code 78674 covers the small unincorporated community of Weir in northern Williamson County, approximately 10 miles north of Georgetown and 40 miles north of downtown Austin. Weir sits along County Road 126 and Farm-to-Market Road 1105, in a landscape of gently rolling Blackland Prairie farmland and ranchland. The community was established in the 1870s as a farming settlement and maintains its agricultural character with fewer than 500 residents. The area is bordered by Jarrell to the north, Florence to the northwest, and Georgetown to the south, all within Williamson County.

Real estate in 78674 is almost exclusively rural properties, with listings dominated by single-family homes on acreage tracts ranging from 2 to 50 or more acres. Prices typically range from $350K for smaller homesteads with older structures to $900K or more for updated ranch properties on 10-plus acres with outbuildings and fencing. Manufactured homes on rural lots are available starting around $200K. Very little new subdivision development has reached the Weir area, preserving its rural density of one to two homes per 10 acres in most sections. Land-only parcels for custom building range from $15K to $30K per acre depending on road frontage and utility access.

Students in 78674 attend either Jarrell ISD or Florence ISD, depending on the specific location within the zip code. Jarrell ISD serves approximately 3,000 students and is growing rapidly due to new subdivisions to the south, while Florence ISD is smaller with roughly 1,100 students. Both districts provide pre-K through 12th grade education. Jarrell ISD has expanded its campus count in recent years and competes in UIL Class 4A. Florence ISD maintains smaller class sizes with a strong agriculture and vocational program. Private school options require a drive to Georgetown, about 15 minutes south.

Weir's location along FM-1105 provides access to I-35 in approximately 10 minutes via Jarrell or Georgetown exits. Downtown Austin is reachable in 40 to 50 minutes via I-35. Georgetown, the county seat, offers the nearest concentration of retail, medical services, and restaurants, including Baylor Scott & White Georgetown hospital, H-E-B grocery, and the historic Georgetown town square. The area is served by Williamson County rural fire and EMS services. Internet connectivity includes fixed wireless and satellite options, with fiber availability limited to areas near the I-35 corridor.
