Austin, Texas
Northwest Austin
Hills, canyons and short tech commutes
Northwest Austin stretches from Far West Boulevard north through Great Hills and Anderson Mill, west to the Lake Austin bluffs at River Place and Jester.
Terrain defines the housing: split-level and hillside homes from the 1970s and 1980s, contemporary rebuilds, and newer gated pockets with canyon or lake views.
It is a favorite for buyers who want mature neighborhoods, strong schools and a ten-minute commute to the Domain or the 183 tech corridor.
