Austin Market by Zip Code

Posted on by

Some people know Austin areas by name; others know them by zip code.  Looking at market data by zip code gives you an overall snapshot of how an area is performing.  Understand there are a variety of factors within a zip code that will affect how different subdivisions and neighborhoods perform.  Some subdivisions are near the lake, while others are near a major roadway.  Factors like walk ability and proximity to a park or a school, can affect market performance within a particular zip code.

Taking a look at market data by zip code does give us a good overview of how different areas of Austin are performing.  It also helps us capture all of the data in a particular area.  Certain locations like Travis Heights and Tarrytown are comprised of dozens of micro-subdivisions.  So, looking at market data by zip code gives us a snapshot of overall performance.

Be mindful that price will affect the size of the buyer pool for a particular market.  A higher priced market area naturally has less buyers who can afford the homes there.  The result means longer time on the market.
