Austin MSA

Lockhart leads the Austin MSA with 5.8% of homes being manufactured — the highest share in the region. This data comes directly from ALEX Intelligence’s analysis of the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates, 2024. This is not a call to build more manufactured homes everywhere. It’s a signal to recognize that housing diversity is already present — and that ignoring it undermines long-term market stability. What does this mean for zoning, infrastructure, and tenant protections in the Austin metro?
