Williamson County nearly doubled its Indian-American population in five years

Williamson County, north of Austin, has about 36,100 residents of Asian Indian descent, up from about 18,500 in the 2015–2019 survey [1][2]. That is growth of about 95%, close to double. They are now 5.4% of the county [1][3].

The wealth we can see is new and broad: 279 people in our database at $1M+, and fewer than 25 of them at $5M+ [8].

• 36,095 residents of Asian Indian descent (alone or in combination) in Williamson County, Texas, 2020–2024 average [1], or 5.4% of the population [3].
• +95.1% versus the 2015–2019 estimate of 18,499 [1][2] (our calculation).
• 279 people in the HeyAlbert database placed in Williamson County, Texas at an estimated $1M+, of whom <25 are in our $5M+ bands [8].

What the HeyAlbert database shows in Williamson County, Texas

HeyAlbert builds profiles of Indian-American individuals with an estimated net worth of $1M or more from public records, and every estimate is tied to a cited source. Our database currently places 279 such people in Williamson County, Texas [8]. That is a count of people we have found and estimated, not a census of wealthy households: our coverage is partial and uneven.

Estimated net-worth band	People in our database
$1M–5M	267
$5M–15M	<25
$25M+ (probable)	<25
$25M+ (likely)	<25
Total, $1M+	279

Source: HeyAlbert database [8]. Bands are estimates from public evidence; “likely” and “probable” describe our confidence in the $25M+ tier. Cells under 25 are suppressed.

City	$1M+	of which $5M+	of which $25M+
Cedar Park	96	<25	<25
Leander	88	<25	<25
Round Rock	55	<25	<25
Georgetown	26	<25	<25

Source: HeyAlbert database [8]. Cities with 25+ people at $1M+; cells under 25 shown as <25. The city is where our sources place the person; for some records it is a workplace rather than a home. Cities in our database are matched by name to the Census places and townships in the county; a few that straddle a county line are counted whole, and large cities that extend well beyond the county are left out.

Of our 279 people, 267 are in the $1M–5M band [8]. Cedar Park has 96 people in our set, Leander 88, Round Rock 55 and Georgetown 26 [8]. Each has fewer than 25 at $5M+ [8].

Why our Williamson County, Texas count looks the way it does

Each estimate in our database rests on a primary piece of public evidence. The mix differs from place to place, depending on which records we have been able to process, and it shapes the counts above more than any real difference in wealth does [8].

Primary evidence for the estimate	People	Share
Home value (public assessor or listing records)	266	95%

Source: HeyAlbert database [8], people at $1M+. Categories under 25 not shown.

Home values support 266 of our 279 estimates [8]. This is home-equity wealth, and our count includes only homes above our value threshold, so many recent buyers are not yet in it.

What it means if you work with these families

Williamson is one of the clearest growth stories in our county series. For advisors and nonprofits, the opportunity is early: families building equity in Leander, Cedar Park and Round Rock, with most of their wealth decisions still ahead.

Methodology

Census figures are American Community Survey 5-year estimates for 2020–2024 and 2015–2019, Table B02018, using “Asian Indian, alone or in any combination” [1][2]. Total population comes from Table B01003 [3]. The Census Bureau changed how it codes detailed race responses in 2020, so part of the change between the two periods may reflect coding rather than migration. All estimates carry margins of error. Shares and growth rates are our calculations.

HeyAlbert counts are aggregates from our database as of October 2026 [8]. They include people we identified as likely of Indian origin with an estimated net worth of $1M or more, based on public records such as property assessments, professional licenses, patents, SEC filings and donor rolls. Coverage is partial and depends on which public records exist and which we have processed. These counts are not population totals. Any cell under 25 is suppressed, and we publish aggregates only, never individual records.
