HomeDirectoryIndependent LivingSunrise Village Retirement Community

On Parker Drive off Highway 123 in San Marcos. The operator describes it as a one-storey, affordable apartment community designed for independent seniors, with a resident activity calendar, newsletter and bus schedule. No personal care or medical services are described, so this is housing rather than licensed care.

Sunrise Village Retirement Community is at 500 Parker Drive in San Marcos, off Highway 123; the operator's own directions tell visitors to turn just before the bowling alley coming from town. It is a single-storey apartment community, which means no lifts and no internal stairs. The site describes the setting as combining Hill Country surroundings with Austin and San Antonio within a short drive. The website is small and does not name a parent management company or ownership group.

This is affordable independent-living rental housing for adults aged 55 and over, not a licensed care provider. There is no assisted living or memory care licence, no nursing or aide staffing, no medication assistance and no personal care of any kind; residents must be able to live independently. What the community provides is housing plus shared facilities. Two community centres are available to residents, and the operator publishes floor plans, a unit photo gallery, an activity calendar, a monthly newsletter and an online maintenance work-order form. Applications are taken in person at the office.

The most concrete practical benefit is transport: Sunrise Village runs scheduled transportation to H-E-B and Walmart on designated days each month, with a published bus schedule, which matters for a resident who no longer drives. The community is smoke-free inside all apartments, and there is no swimming pool. It suits an older adult on a limited income who wants their own front door and neighbours nearby. Rent qualification details and any income limits are not published and must be confirmed with the office on 512-754-7230.

Questions Austin families ask

Which Austin hospitals handle serious senior emergencies?

Dell Seton Medical Center at The University of Texas, 1500 Red River Street, is the region's Level I trauma center and Dell Medical School teaching hospital. Other major systems are Ascension Seton, St. David's HealthCare with more than 180 sites, and Baylor Scott and White, all with campuses across the metro.

Why is there so much senior housing in Georgetown and Round Rock?

Williamson County skews older than Travis, 13.7 percent aged 65-plus versus 11.6 percent, and grew 23.6 percent since 2020. Sun City Texas in Georgetown, a Del Webb 55-plus community of roughly 7,500 to 8,500 homes on about 5,000 acres, anchors that demand.

How many seniors live in the Austin area?

Approximately 305,000 people aged 65 and older live across Travis, Williamson, and Hays counties, based on Census population estimates combined with survey age percentages. That's roughly 161,000 in Travis, 103,000 in Williamson, and 41,000 in Hays. Hays and Williamson are growing fastest.
