THE FIRST IMPRESSION
A new chapter on familiar ground.
The redevelopment of Austin’s former airport brings a planned street network, different housing forms and a connected system of public open spaces.
01 / ARCHITECTURE & CHARACTER
Read the streets,
then the house.
Mueller’s former-airport redevelopment includes multiple housing forms within a planned setting. Compare a row home, a detached home and a condominium on their own terms: entries, storage, outdoor space and shared responsibilities differ.
- Housing character
- Row homes, detached homes and apartments
- A public place
- Mueller Lake Park
02 / ON A VISIT
Put the map
into perspective.
Begin at Mueller Lake Park, then explore the connections between public space and residential streets. Consider which routes you would use on a normal day, not only on a weekend visit.
- Request the applicable association documents and fee information.
- Understand parking and access for the exact property.
- Compare the maintenance responsibilities of different housing types.
03 / THE QUESTIONS WORTH ASKING
Every address
has its own context.
Which association rules and ongoing fees apply to the property?
Confirm school assignment, restrictions, property condition and any water access for the exact address with the appropriate authority. This guide makes no school, safety or lifestyle rankings.

Figures describe the City of Austin RMMA (Robert Mueller Municipal Airport) planning area.
- Zillow Home Value Index
- $708,086Month ending 31 August 2026
An index of typical value for the Mueller region, not a median sale price and not an appraisal. ZIP 78723 as a whole indexed $468,904 in the same month — Mueller indexes well above its surrounding ZIP, so the ZIP figure is not a proxy for it.

- What Mueller is
- The redevelopment of Austin's former Robert Mueller Municipal Airport — just over 700 acres, mixed-use and mixed-incomeRetrieved 22 September 2026
The Robert Mueller Municipal Airport Redevelopment and Reuse Plan was formally adopted by Council in 2000. It is a public-private partnership begun with Catellus Development Group; Banbury Development is the current development manager. Homes here sit inside a planned community with its own design and ownership arrangements — ask which apply to a specific address.
- Flood zone
- Determined parcel by parcel — check the specific addressRetrieved 22 September 2026
This guide makes no neighborhood-wide flood claim. Look the address up on FloodPro and on FEMA's Map Service Center (msc.fema.gov), check the current FIRM panel, and ask what a lender will require for that parcel.
- Combined property tax rate
- $2.046485 per $100 of assessed valueTax year 2025
The most recent year all five jurisdictions have adopted a rate: Austin ISD 0.9252, City of Austin 0.524017, Travis County 0.375845, Austin Community College 0.1034 and Travis Central Health 0.118023. The City has adopted 0.579948 for tax year 2026, but the other four had not as of 22 September 2026, so no complete 2026 combined rate exists yet. Rates are per $100 of assessed value and exemptions are property-specific.

These are public records, not advice about a specific property. Figures change, boundaries are not parcel lines, and an index is not a valuation. Verify anything you intend to rely on against the source and the property itself.
