Homes Zoned to Blanton Elementary: Market Stats
The figures below cover single-family homes sold through Unlock MLS whose addresses fall inside Blanton Elementary’s 2026-27 attendance zone, based on Austin ISD’s official SY 2026-27 boundary map, not the school typed into each listing. The largest groups of sales were in Mueller, the Delwood sections, Windsor Park, Brookside Estates and Royal Oak Estates. Nearly all listings in the zone were tagged to Blanton in MLS, but the middle school field still shows a mix of older and other school names, so we did not rely on it.
