View Austin market analysis →The Surge Take: Cedar Park
Cedar Park scores 91.7/100 on Surge's STR market score, ranking #2 of 46 Austin-area submarkets we track. That puts it in the top tier of the Austin market — the score blends guest demand drivers, proximity to attractions and employers, and property fundamentals, and Cedar Park performs across the board. The average listing here grosses $36,247/year — about 19% below the Austin metro average, so unit selection and design matter more than usual.
The revenue profile is a $186 average daily rate at 65% occupancy (RevPAR $99). That's a healthy mid-market ADR — the sweet spot for durable demand from both leisure and work travel. As a suburban submarket, demand skews toward families, relocations, and medical or project stays — larger homes tend to outperform.
Regulation-wise, Cedar Park falls under City of Cedar Park, which allows short-term rentals with compliance requirements — Annual $100 STR registration required beginning October 1, 2026. Registration-style regimes are manageable and tend to thin out casual competition, which can favor professional operators.
