Falconhead West vs. Austin and Travis County Markets

How does a specialized Austin neighborhood compare to the broader market when prices shift? In Falconhead West, median closed prices settled at $800,000 across 21 single-family home sales in the rolling 12 months ending October 31, 2026. This figure represents a 7.5% decline compared to the prior 12-month period and matches the same percentage drop from the year-ago window. ALEX Intelligence benchmarked these results against regional data to provide context. The median price per square foot in Falconhead West was $242.48, which is higher than the Travis County median of $244.70 and significantly above the broader Unlock MLS region median of $197.59. Homes in this area spent a median of 36 days on market, slightly faster than the regional average of 66 days but slower than the prior period's 34 days. The relationship between list price and final sale price also shifted. The median close-to-original-list ratio improved to 0.983, up 2.8% from the prior period, indicating sellers are retaining more of their asking price compared to the previous year. Meanwhile, 71.4% of homes sold below their original list price, a notable decrease from the 93.3% seen in the prior window. Inventory remains tight with only two active listings today, resulting in less than one month of supply. This scarcity helps explain why median living area grew slightly to 3,431 square feet, up 2.9% from the previous period. While the broader Austin region saw a median price of $397,974, Falconhead West continues to command a premium, reflecting its specific location and property characteristics within the city.
