Hill Country neighborhood next to Crystal Falls Golf Club
Perched atop a steep ridge in the Texas Hill Country, the Bluffs is the newest neighborhood to take shape in the Crystal Falls master-planned community in Leander, about 25 miles north of downtown Austin. “There is something for everybody in Crystal Falls,” says Shanan Shepherd, a resident since 2011 and the co-owner of Thrive Realty. “There are a lot of families, but there are places for grandma to live or places with enough room for family to spread out.” What sets the Bluffs apart is its location on the far west side of the community, which offers uninterrupted views of the landscape below and a buffer from all the action along Lakeline Boulevard. Residents enjoy proximity to Crystal Falls Golf Club, a highly rated school district and community amenities. The Bluffs receives a CAP Index crime score of 1 out of 10 compared to the national average of 4 out of 10, meaning the neighborhood's crime risk is low.
