The Austin suburb gets high marks for being a relaxing place to live.

Chill out.

If you live in Cedar Park, then you’re probably already pretty relaxed. Cedar Park was recently named the fifth most relaxed small city in America by the Movoto Real Estate blog.

The list was compiled based on data for cities between 50,000 and 60,000 people. Cedar Park’s population was about 49,000 people in 2010, according to the Cedar Park Chamber of Commerce. And the city is growing. The projected population for 2015 is 63,745. That’s a lot of relaxed people.
