Hays County occupies 693 square miles in South Central Texas along the Interstate 35 corridor between Austin and San Antonio, with San Marcos serving as the county seat. Home to more than 256,000 residents, Hays County is one of the fastest-growing counties in the nation, anchored by Texas State University and an economy that spans higher education, healthcare, retail and tourism, professional services, manufacturing and construction.
In April 2018, Hays County authorized the use of Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) financing and selected Lone Star PACE as the program administrator.
