Northwest Hills is a scenic North Austin neighborhood known for its elevated Hill Country views, mature trees, established homes, top-rated schools, and convenient access to MoPac, Loop 360, and downtown Austin.
Northwest Hills is an established Austin neighborhood located in North Central Austin, developed primarily in the 1960s and 1970s along the rolling hills of the Balcones Escarpment. The area was designed to take advantage of natural elevation changes, resulting in winding streets, large lots, and panoramic Hill Country and city views that distinguish it from flatter parts of the city.
Today, Northwest Hills features a diverse mix of traditional ranch-style homes, mid-century residences, and thoughtfully updated properties. Residents value the neighborhood’s quiet, residential feel along with proximity to shopping and dining centers, medical facilities, and highly regarded AISD schools. Easy access to MoPac (Loop 1), Loop 360, and U.S. 183 makes commuting to downtown Austin, The Domain, and major employment hubs straightforward.
Known for its mature tree canopy, scenic overlooks, and balance of privacy and convenience, Northwest Hills remains a sought-after choice for buyers looking for established North Austin living with Hill Country character.
