Sorry, I started the east vs west thing more than a year ago when I was in San Diego. To my surpise, it is still going on. I moved to Round Rock area and ended up buying on the west side even though I almost bought a house in the Lake Forest area, which is on the east side. Lake Forest and Forest Creek areas are very nice. But the other areas nearby are marginal.

If people keep up with the "east RR" or "west RR" then you are perpetuating it.
I tell people who say that.."There is no east or west RR, there is just RR". They can live east or west of I35..but there is only the one single entity called Round Rock.

Or you could just go to the Round Rock ISD website and see ratings? All I see is the state of TX when I click that link.

By looking at jenbar's link, it's blatantly obvious that your actual subdivision, much more than your locale (e or w) will determine how well your schools rate.

West Round Rock vs East Round Rock
We have lived in Round Rock for close to 10 years, on both the East side and the West side, and there are a few reasons why we chose West Round Rock over East Round Rock. First, the homes appreciate much faster on the west side. The homes on the east side of Round Rock as well as Pflugerville tend to appreciate at a much slower rate. Also, the very best schools are on the West side, but you should check out the schools individually, because there are good schools in the East side as well. Also, the West side has a lot less construction going on, so if you like lots of urban development, choose the East side. If you like quiet, clean neighborhoods with lots of trees, choose the west side.
