Marble Falls seeing ‘healthy growth’ as more people, businesses pick the Hill Country

MARBLE FALLS, Texas (KXAN) — While Austin continues to see more and more people moving to the city, some of the surrounding communities are seeing growth as well.

Marble Falls is one of those communities that is seeing more and more people call the small town home.

Danna Laine Doremus owns “ The Oil Tap ” on main street. She said with many people visiting Marble Falls, along with continued growth, she brought her business here and is excited about the future.

“We have been down here three years and in that three years I saw the need to open a second location,” said Doremus.

When driving into Marble Falls from Austin, many developments are popping up with for sale signs posted all over.

“Lots of movement, lots of growth,” said Kelcei Shaver, who lives in one of the new developments just south of town.

Shaver said she loves the small town feel and charm and hopes it stays that way.

“Slower pace, people know my coffee order,” she said.
