Howdy! Come on down to central Texas where the city of Leander straddles Williamson and Travis Counties just north of bustling Austin. One of the fastest growing areas in the state, Leander’s real estate market offers a wide range of options for its newest residents. You can enjoy everything that Austin has to offer, including its renowned live music scene, in the quieter, calmer atmosphere of Leander, once centered on the railroad industry. Though the music may call you south, the low cost of living in your new home town might just keep you close to home.
With higher than average income and lower than average cost of living, the crime rate in Leander remains low, making it a safe and secure community in which to live and raise a family. The area’s children primarily attend Leander Independent School District, which is growing quickly to accommodate the increasing population. The school system is supplemented by charter school options, though there’s no need to look for alternatives to the local campuses. With three local high schools ranked within the top 100 in the state in addition to highly rated elementary and middle schools, Leander ISD’s success is clear.
When they’re not in school and the Texas sun is beating down, take the kids out to The Quarry Splash Pad, a local water park that offers a fun way to cool down. Younger ones will also enjoy Cedar Park Railroad, where they can see vintage trains up close. When the kids are staying home, you can go for some target practice at Eagle Peak Shooting Range to be ready for hunting season, or take to the greens at Crystal Falls Golf Course, and if shopping is more your style, head to nearby Cedar Park where the Lakeline Mall offers retail therapy.
There’s always good eatin’ in Texas, and Leander is no exception. Try out the Cajun-inspired dishes at Mouton’s Southern Bistro or grab a good, old fashioned beef burger at the Copperhead Grill. If you’re ready to weigh in on the great barbeque debate, try out Smokey Mo’s BBQ and Big Cat BBQ to decide which recipe makes you come back for more.
