MLS source, pricing method & coverage
Source updated Oct 2, 2026, 5:35 PM Central. Counts use eligible public listings matched to the labeled geography. Sale prices use positive asking prices on Active Residential listings; the median is shown with at least three priced listings. These are asking prices, not sold prices, valuations or all homes in the area. Rentals are counted separately; no rent period is assumed.
Under-contract and pending counts describe records currently in this feed. Location errors and omitted coordinates can affect boundary matches. The initial active-listing import is complete. Different areas can overlap; do not add their counts together.

ELSEWHERE IN SOUTHWEST
Neighborhoods across Southwest
Onion Creek does not have a published City or Census outline of its own, so these are the neighborhoods grouped under Southwest. Open one to see its own outline, records and homes.
These are grouped by part of the metro, not by a published outline, because this guide has none to test against. This is a browsing relationship. It does not establish shared HOA membership, legal boundaries or services, and county identities stay with each place. Listing counts were recorded on ; open a neighborhood for its current homes.
Keep Onion Creek in your Austin notebook.
Save this area profile alongside your field guides, then compare specific addresses and your own search criteria. An area bookmark records your interest; it is not a property-search boundary.
Start with the available home and its actual lease terms. Confirm the advertised rent period, deposits, recurring fees, pet policies and move-in timing before comparing your total monthly cost.
Compare the property type, layout and condition against your must-haves.
Test your actual commute and visit the block at different times of day.
Review nearby development records and confirm current project status.
Verify school assignments directly with the district for the exact address.
Review the lease, maintenance responsibilities, insurance requirements and all mandatory fees with your agent.

Percent of homes; the grey bar is the comparison.Details & limits
How many homes here were listed for lease over the past two years comes from closed MLS records, shown to signed-in clients.
Why it can matter
HOA rental rules: some associations cap how many homes may be leased; ask for the HOA’s leasing rules if you may rent the home out later.
Resale comparisons: investor purchases and rentals are part of the same sales and price comparisons as owner-occupied homes.
Turnover: renters move more often than owners on average, so more homes nearby change occupants each year.
Limits
County appraisal records for this test are loaded for Travis and Williamson counties; elsewhere the card uses the Census estimate.
Census ACS figures are 5-year survey estimates with margins of error, and tracts do not follow neighborhood lines.
Not every rental is listed on the MLS, and a listing is counted once per home.
Descriptive only: this is not a rating of the neighborhood and says nothing about who lives here.
