MLS source updated Oct 2, 2026, 1:35 PM Central · Asking prices and availability can change.
Source updated Oct 2, 2026, 1:35 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.

FROM OUR AUSTIN RESEARCH NETWORK
The Boardwalk offers a distinctive stretch of the Butler Trail along Lady Bird Lake. Its access points and viewing areas make it possible to plan a focused outing without committing to the full loop around the lake.
Austin Texas Things editorial research · imported . Original source check dates appear below.
The Trail Conservancy identifies the Boardwalk as a roughly 1.3-mile stretch of the Ann and Roy Butler Hike-and-Bike Trail, used by pedestrians and cyclists. [1]
The conservancy lists entrances at East Bouldin Creek, Blunn Creek on East Riverside Drive, the I-35 frontage-road corner and International Shores on South Lakeshore Boulevard. [1]
The conservancy provides standard and accessible trail maps, along with information about amenities and parking. Use the map suited to the trip you want. [2]
Send your group the specific boardwalk access point. The larger Butler Trail loops around the lake, so its general name is not a precise meeting location. [1][2]
The conservancy says fishing is permitted from Boardwalk rest areas, not along the main trail. Check the current rules before planning that activity. [1]
No. The conservancy lists multiple Boardwalk entrances, allowing a visit to that section without completing the lake loop. [1]
The Trail Conservancy’s Maps & Parking page links an accessible trail map and other route resources. Use those details for your specific access needs. [2]
These are dated editorial notes. Check the original source for current access, schedules and project status.

LIVE PUBLIC RECORDS
Counts from the research database behind Zabalist, measured within 0.5 mi (800 m) of the reference point. Each figure names its own window. Filings and reports are not a description of any home, block or resident, and they are never combined into a score.
Sources: Austin Building Permits (database sync Oct 1, 2026); Austin Site Plans (database sync Oct 1, 2026); TABS State Projects (database sync Oct 1, 2026); Zabalist unified projects (sync date not registered).
Site plan: the City of Austin’s development application for anything beyond a single house. It is a proposal, not an approval or completed construction.
TDLR project registration: a state filing required for commercial and public construction over a cost threshold. It means a project was submitted for accessibility review, not that it was built.
Sources: TABC licenses and permits (database sync Aug 8, 2026); Austin Health Inspections (database sync Oct 1, 2026).
TABC license types: state alcohol permits for bars, restaurants, stores, venues and events. A license record is not confirmation that a business is open.
Sources: Austin Traffic Crashes (database sync Oct 2, 2026); Austin 311 Service Requests (database sync Oct 2, 2026); Austin Code Complaints (database sync Oct 2, 2026).
311 request: a service request logged with the City of Austin (missed pickup, street light, loose animal and similar). It records that something was reported, not that it was verified.
Code-compliance case: a City investigation opened after a report of a possible ordinance violation. An opened case is not a confirmed violation.
The 5 closest filings across permits, site plans, TDLR registrations, subdivisions and projects, by distance from the reference point. Verify the site before connecting a record to a home.
TABC licenses are counted for inferred postal ZIP 78741, not the radius (the ZIP is inferred from the reference point): 8 new in the past 12 months, 100 active; database sync Aug 8, 2026. A license is not proof a business is open.
278 crashes in the past 3 years (7 involving a pedestrian, 1 a bicyclist) and 707 311 requests in the past 12 months, excluding requests marked duplicate or cancelled, all within 0.5 mi (800 m) of the reference point.

NEIGHBORHOODS IN THIS AREA
Each of these sits inside the published boundary this guide describes. Open one to see its own outline, records and homes.
Each neighborhood is placed by testing its own approximate footprint against a published City, Census or municipal boundary, or by matching the name its listings report. Footprints are estimates assembled from recorded plats and listing locations. 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.
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.

Other guides filed under the same part of Austin. Each opens its own records and, when the feed allows, its own homes.
The Carver Museum and Genealogy Center offers a way to explore both public history and personal family stories. Its city-run resources extend from exhibit galleries to genealogical databases, reference material and seminars.
Dick Nichols Pool is a seasonal recreation reference in East Oak Hill. The citywide directory checked for this guide lists it closed, while the facility page describes its summer swimming, lessons and team activity. Confirm a future opening before planning a swim.
Gateway’s story is closely tied to the North Burnet/Gateway planning framework. City documents describe a shift from auto-oriented development toward mixed uses, better connections and transit access; those are planning goals to compare against actual projects and conditions.
McKinney Falls State Park offers a starting point for exploring this side of Austin: Onion Creek’s limestone ledges, wooded trails and the remains of an early ranch. The state park and the city’s McKinney planning area are different geographies, so use the park’s own maps for a visit.
North Shoal Creek’s planning documents focus on the practical ingredients of neighborhood life: walking and cycling connections, public facilities, greenery and varied housing. Pillow School Park offers one concrete public-space reference within that wider planning story.
Little Walnut Creek Greenbelt offers a local story of community priorities becoming trail and play improvements. The city documents a new Springdale Road trailhead and play area, while the larger wooded landscape retains a network of informal trails.
