The history of Elgin dates back to 1869 following a major flood of the Colorado River. Following the flooding, the Houston and Texas Central Railroad built through the area and placed a train depot in the center of the land. The town became incorporated in 1872 with much of its population coming from nearby Perryville. By 1879, it was described as a thriving depot town with a population of 400. The community grew steadily through the 20th century and became the site of two big brick and tile plants in 1940. Other industries soon followed.
Today, the community boasts a population of around 9,000 residents. While the homes near downtown tend to be older, many have undergone extensive upgrades and feature modern amenities. These traditional homes generally feature large private yards with mature trees. The newer subdivisions within the town tend to be located west of the downtown area. These homes, which are particularly popular among those who commute to Austin, tend to offer spacious fenced yards, large living areas and modern amenities.
