Hays County Judge Eddy Etheredge says growth and rising property values are triggering a cultural clash between long-time rural residents and newcomers. He cites 1,400 new homes outside city limits last year, total values at 2.5 billion, and a shift in attitudes as the county contends with rapid change and the need for compromise.

Players return to Greenhouse Theatre home
The Wimberley Players once used a derelict greenhouse behind the Lodge at Woodcreek as a home. They weathered and modernized it with climate control, seating, lighting, and sound to stage productions for the community. Ownership changes led to a temporary move in 1994 while negotiations began to return in 1995 with local support.
