Which areas offer the most new home inventory in Hays County?

The highest volume of residential construction is concentrated along the Interstate 35 corridor, specifically in the rapidly expanding cities of Kyle and Buda. These markets are among the fastest-growing in the nation, offering a wide range of master-planned communities at price points generally more attainable than Austin. In contrast, the western portion of the county, centered around Dripping Springs, focuses on luxury new construction and custom homes on larger lots, capitalizing on the scenic Texas Hill Country terrain.

What should I know about PIDs and property taxes in Hays County?

Property taxes in Texas fund local services and schools. In the high-growth areas of Hays County—particularly in Kyle and Buda—it is very common for new home communities to be located within a Public Improvement District (PID). A PID levies a special assessment on homeowners to reimburse developers for infrastructure and amenities like parks and roads. This cost can be a fixed installment or a tax rate added to your annual bill. Because PID terms vary significantly by neighborhood, it is critical to verify the specific total tax obligation with the builder.

Which school districts serve the major new home markets in Hays County?

School zoning is a primary consideration for buyers in this region. The bustling communities in the eastern corridor (Kyle, Buda, and Niederwald) are largely served by Hays Consolidated ISD (Hays CISD), which is aggressively building new campuses to accommodate population growth. The western sector falls under Dripping Springs ISD, a district widely recognized for high academic performance. San Marcos CISD serves the southern portion of the county. Buyers should always confirm the specific attendance zone, as boundaries can be complex near city limits.
