Where in Fredericksburg, Texas can I build 100 homes?

Six privately owned, flood-free parcels on residentially zoned land in Fredericksburg could each take 100 or more homes at about 3.5 homes per acre. The largest is 81 acres on Owl Lane, and three are on Pyka Road.

How this was worked out

• We used Gillespie County Appraisal District parcels and kept private tracts of 15 acres or more. Government, school, church and other institutional owners were excluded.
• We kept land with residential zoning (City of Fredericksburg zoning, 2022): R-1, R-2, R-4 or PUD. Commercial, industrial and public zones were excluded.
• We removed flood-prone land using the Texas Water Development Board 2024 flood hazard areas and creek buffers. The flood-free areas above are what remains.
• Capacity assumes about 3.5 homes per acre.

Limitation: a 23-acre Walmart parcel on E Main St (zoned PUD) also passed these filters and still appears on the map. It is an operating store, not a building site. Utilities and slopes were not checked.
