Which school zones are driving the most activity in Travis County? The data shows that elementary school attendance zones can be ranked strictly by how many homes sold, not by test scores or reputation. In October 2026, the Lago Vista Elementary zone led with 41 closed sales, followed by Neidig with 25 and Newton Collins with 24. ALEX Intelligence analyzed 970 closed home sales to rank these zones by volume. The top five zones by sales activity are Lago Vista (41 sales), Neidig (25 sales), Newton Collins (24 sales), Blazier (21 sales), and Del Valle (19 sales). Each of these zones had at least 19 transactions, meeting the threshold for inclusion in this ranking. Median prices varied significantly across these high-activity zones. Homes in the CC Mason zone sold for a median of $679,850, while those in the Neidig zone averaged $267,499. The Serene Hills zone saw the highest median price at $905,000 with 17 sales, and Hill Elementary had a median of $775,750 across 16 sales. This ranking reflects buyer demand and inventory availability in specific school attendance areas during the reporting window. It does not indicate academic quality or performance rankings. For buyers and sellers, these figures highlight where market activity is concentrated within Travis County's school districts. The analysis covers all single-family homes, condos, and townhomes that closed in October 2026. The sample size of 970 transactions provides a robust view of current market dynamics across the county's educational zones. Want to see this home?
