What is it like to live in Leander?
Leander is where much of the region's new construction is. Subdivisions on the west side climb into the Hill Country toward Lake Travis, with larger lots and views; the east side is flatter, closer to 183A, and generally quicker to Austin.
Northline is a new downtown district taking shape near the city center. Lakewood Park and Devine Lake Park are the local parks, and Cedar Park's H-E-B Center and shopping are a few minutes south.
Getting around from Leander
The 183A toll road runs south into Cedar Park and US 183. The Red Line commuter train runs from Leander Station through Cedar Park and North Austin to downtown.
Who Leander suits
Buyers who want a new home with more house and lot than in-town Austin offers, and sellers in newer subdivisions, who are competing with builders' incentives and need to price accordingly.
