MLS source, pricing method & coverage
Source updated Oct 2, 2026, 12:35 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.

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.
