Neighborhoods
Parks, walks, and restaurants for the neighborhoods we sell, from Northwest Hills and the university to the east side, Zilker, and Circle C. Each page also has live listings, a market update, and a guide we can email you.
Northwest Hills
78731 covers Northwest Hills and the streets around Far West, Balcones, and the Bull Creek greenbelt. The land is hilly, with oak and juniper, and many lots are larger than the bungalow blocks closer to downtown.

Core market
Central Austin here means the lake, the capitol grid, and the neighborhoods on the pages linked below. It is not a stand-in for the whole metro.

University market
West Campus is the grid west of the University of Texas, mostly in 78705, with Guadalupe Street as the commercial edge. Buildings are denser than a Northwest Hills ranch, and many lots are discussed for what they can hold, not only for the house that is there now.

West Austin
Tarrytown is in 78703, west of MoPac, between the river and the older west-central streets. Lots are often larger than the bungalow streets east of the freeway. Lake Austin Boulevard and Exposition carry most of the through traffic.

Barton Springs
Zilker and Barton Hills sit south of Lady Bird Lake, around the park and the greenbelt, mostly reached through 78704. Buyers are often paying for the park, the trail, and a south-central location. Not every 78704 listing is Zilker.

South Congress
Travis Heights is the residential pocket of north 78704 by Little Stacy Park and Blunn Creek. South Congress is the commercial avenue on its west side. They share a ZIP and they are not the same street.

East Austin
East of I-35, ZIP 78702 is older bungalow blocks around the French Legation and the Carver Museum. The ZIP is the boundary we use, not a slogan.

West of the river
Rollingwood is its own city west of the river, not a neighborhood inside Austin city limits. That changes taxes and permitting, which matters on a sale or a rebuild.

Southwest
Circle C is a planned neighborhood in southwest Austin, ZIP 78739. Streets, parks, and the retail centers were laid out together, which makes it a different drive and a different lot pattern than Central Austin.
