Southeastern Austin charm
Southeast Austin’s Colorado Crossing neighborhood is just 8 miles from downtown, and even closer to Austin International Airport, providing residents with convenience to many of the city’s amenities. “It’s one of the more recently built neighborhoods in the area, so it’s great for first-time homebuyers, investors or people who just don’t want an older home,” says Linda Welsh, the owner of the Linda Welsh Realty Group who has over 20 years of selling homes in the Austin area.. The neighborhood is surrounded by major tech businesses to the east, including Amazon and OriGen, and a Tesla Gigafactory is about 10 miles away, representing some of the major employers in the area. Colorado Crossing appeals to prospective Austin residents looking for easy convenience to downtown, while having spacious and affordable homes to choose from. With its proximity to Downtown Austin and its host of retailers and restaurants, Colorado Crossing has much to offer for its lower price compared to the surrounding area.

Important to know
Colorado Crossing sits 5 miles to the west of Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, so there is a possibility of occasionally seeing incoming and outgoing planes flying past the neighborhood. “Some people prefer to live close to the airport because they travel a lot,” Welsh says. “There’s not a lot of air noise at all.”
Affordable housing options
Winding, sidewalk-lined streets are clustered with single-family homes throughout Colorado Crossing, with towering trees in front yards that can provide shade during an afternoon walk. Colorado Crossing offers a blend of rental properties and houses for sale, with home prices typically ranging between $300,000 and $500,000, lower than neighboring Easton Park.
