West Lake Hills, TX is synonymous with luxury real estate in Austin. An upscale suburb to the west, just outside of Austin, it is situated in the hill country south of Lake Austin. The city only has a total area of 3.7 square miles and has remained steady in population for the past decade with little to no growth. Most of the property has already been developed in Westlake.
The homes that garner the most attention are the homes lining Lake Austin. The amount of homes in Westlake built around Lake Austin continues to grow as more and more people want lake front or lake view homes. Rest assured, people who live in West Austin don't spend very much time in front of the television. The views and recreational activities keep residents occupied to say the least.
The WestlakeEanes Independent School District is amazingly high ranked with EVERY school in the district ranking "exemplary" year over year based on the Texas Education Agency Accountability Ratings. Eanes Independent School District also has the highest percentage for students meeting the TAKS standard in the Central Texas area at 95%. The state average is 72%. Schools in the Eanes School District include Barton Creek Elementary, Eanes Elementary, Hill Country Middle School, West Ridge Middle School, and Westlake High School.
The homes in Westlake and West Lake Hills are some of the finest in Austin. The homes exhibit the pinnacle of luxury and are only complimented by the natural setting in which they are positioned. Westlakehomes are firmly positioned at the top of Central Texas "mountains" that reach just high enough to provide spectacular panoramic views for miles. The school district, location, and beautiful hill country properties combine to make West Lake Hills a pretty awesome place to live.
