Why Choose a 78745 Neighborhood?
78745 might be the zip code for you if you like the idea of a 78704 neighborhood but don’t want to shell out the cash it’s going to cost to get you there. Many 78745 neighborhoods have some of the same attributes as the southern 78704 neighborhoods and come with a significantly less shocking price tag. Another person who might choose 78745 would be someone who wants to live south, but who doesn’t like the brand new neighborhoods and their “cookie cutter” look. 78745 offers a diverse look, mature landscaping and unique floor plans you won’t find in many other Austin zip codes.
How are the Schools in 78745?
The best schools in 78745 can be found west of Manchaca Road. There you’ll find schools like Cowan Elementary, Cunningham Elementary, Bailey Middle and Bowie High. As you move east of Manchaca road in 78745, the schools are not as highly rated. If schools are important (and they should be no matter if you have kids or not) try to stay on the west side of Manchaca Road.
Looking to Buy a Home in 78745?
