Clarksville

Historic west-of-downtown enclave with 19th-century cottages, walkable cafés on West Lynn, and a small-town feel inside one of Austin's most expensive zip codes. Median home values sit at $960K — above the Austin-metro median — and the neighbourhood is home to roughly 25,035 residents with a median household income near $91K.

Prices are up 6.5% year-over-year — one of the faster-appreciating pockets in the metro. Rents average around $3,000/month, and 76% of homes are owner-occupied. Demographically, the area skews toward a family-heavy mix with strong demand for good schools and quieter streets, with a longer 30-minute commute, mostly highway-driven and 75% of adult residents holding a bachelor's degree or higher.

On the lifestyle side, Clarksville is moderately walkable, with a good mix of drive-to and walk-to amenities (Walk Score 67). Inside the neighbourhood footprint OpenStreetMap counts 23 restaurants, 18 cafés, 5 grocery stores, and 9 parks — the kind of day-to-day density that shapes how it actually feels to live here, beyond the price tag.
