When people usually talk about Texas, they mention all the big cities and attractions. Austin, San Antonio, Dallas, and Houston are usually go-to places for people who are looking for some excitement. But Texas is also a popular spot for families and people who are wanting to retire. Settling down in the great states is ideal for most people, but one town apparently has the rest beat when it comes to the title of Best Small Town in Texas.

Not everybody wants to live in a big city. Sometimes you just want to retire in a small town with your family, but you also want to be somewhere that has exciting things for you to experience together.

According to the PODS Blog, Fredericksburg, Texas, is the perfect small town. This place is known for its strong German influence, the beautiful wineries, museums, fun festivals, great food, and is just an all around wonderful, cozy experience.

It's located smack dab in the middle of wine country in Texas, and it's close enough to Austin that you can enjoy what that city has to offer without dealing with having to live there. (So plenty for the kids to do as they grow up.)

In fact, the town was once named one of the "most European feeling" towns in America.

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TO FREDERICKSBURG?

This beautiful town was actually founded by German immigrants in 1846, which means it's full of history and charm. It also has some amazing restaurants, B&Bs, and natural formations like the nearby Enchanted Rock, which is drop-dead gorgeous.

If you’re not into all that big city life, Fredericksburg sounds like it is a perfect spot for you. Even though Texas is one of the largest states with a booming population, it still has plenty of beautiful small towns to enjoy.
