Housing % of Units Built Since 2010, by Zip Code (ZCTA5) — Austin Metro

NOTE: Gray indicates insufficient data or a suppressed estimate.

The outer suburban and exurban zip codes ringing the Austin metro—particularly to the north toward Georgetown and along the eastern and western periphery—exhibit the highest shares of housing built since 2010, frequently exceeding 20–30%, reflecting rapid greenfield development on the metro's expanding edge. In contrast, central Austin zip codes clustered around the urban core display markedly lower shares, generally below 8%, consistent with already-built-out neighborhoods where new construction represents a smaller fraction of total housing stock. A notable transitional band of moderate new construction (roughly 8–16%) is visible in areas between Cedar Park, Round Rock, and Pflugerville, suggesting infill and continued densification in established but still-growing suburban communities.
