Elon Musk’s X, formerly Twitter, has found a new home for its headquarters in a city outside of Austin.
The social media company — after Musk declared it was leaving California for Texas — has zeroed in on the city of Bastrop, which is roughly 30 miles east of the state capitol, according to a court filing in San Francisco. Although X has office space in Austin, it has leased the property in the smaller city to be its official headquarters and it will ultimately move its employees in the Austin office to the new Bastrop location, the filing said.

Last month, X CEO Linda Yaccarino sent an email to employees announcing that X’s San Francisco office would be closing “over the next few weeks,” and those who had been working in that office would need to switch to working out of other X offices, the filing said. X has closed the California office and has taken a number of steps to officially change the address of its headquarters. It employs nearly 120 full-time employees who live and work in Texas.

“X plans to significantly grow its Texas footprint, including by opening new offices, and hiring additional X employees, following its formal headquarters change,” the filing said.
