Hyde Park

Austin, TX

Austin's oldest planned suburb — grid-pattern streets, Craftsman bungalows, walkable to the University of Texas, and one of the city's most stable established neighbourhoods. Median home values sit at $1145K — well above the Austin-metro median — and the neighbourhood is home to roughly 23,995 residents with a median household income near $84K.

Prices are up 5.9% year-over-year — one of the faster-appreciating pockets in the metro. Rents average around $3,750/month, and 74% 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 typical-for-the-metro commute of 22 minutes and 72% of adult residents holding a bachelor's degree or higher.

On the lifestyle side, Hyde Park is moderately walkable, with a good mix of drive-to and walk-to amenities (Walk Score 56). Inside the neighbourhood footprint OpenStreetMap counts 47 restaurants, 13 cafés, 4 grocery stores, and 7 parks — the kind of day-to-day density that shapes how it actually feels to live here, beyond the price tag.
