Good Investments in NW Austin

One of the areas of Austin that seems to hold its value and continue to be a place where people want to live is North West Austin. And one of the big factors that draw buyers into the NW Austin corridor is Westwood High School. Ranked in the nations top 100 High Schools, year after year, this part of Austin has a lot to offer. Home prices here are considerably more affordable than homes closer in to downtown Austin. Nearby retail is abundant. Convenient highway and tollway access. Positioned roughly in the middle between downtown and Lake Austin. Oh, and did I mention the schools?

This is a Real Estate community that has some of the new, and lots of the older style homes of Austin. One thing about the homes in this area is that they feel less "cookie cutters". Many communities have large, old trees, and some of the lot sizes can be much larger than newer style communities in this same general price range.

Let's look at a sample of this year's stats for communities reporting to Westwood High School:

• Year to date (YTD): Nov. 19, 2009
