how far away is that?
Cedar Park is about 20 miles from downtown Austin. Leander is another five or seven miles. The traffic on 183 during rush hour is awful, but there is a toll road that makes it a bit easier until you get to 620.
The population of both those towns was about 5,000 combined in 1991. Now, there are probably over 35,000 or more between the two. I lived 35 miles from work when we moved here in 1991 and 183 still had traffic lights at most intersections. Now, it’s a freeway. Took me about 45 minutes each way.
When I retired in 2011, it was over an hour each way with the PM commute often being 1 hour and 15 or 20 minutes. If there was an accident, add an additional 20 - 30 minutes.
