8 miles south of downtown Austin you will find what used to be a town called Live Oak Springs. Austin, Texas Realtors and residents now know it as the beloved southwest community: Oak Hill. Oak Hill is a collection of neighborhoods that form this enclave of hill country culture and lifestyle and many have banded together to form OHAN (Oak Hill Association of Neighborhoods). Specific neighborhood information for Oak Hill can be found at the OHAN website.
From Apoloosa Run to Zyle Road (A-Z), the subdivisions in Oak Hill sprawl across the Texas Hill Country. The “Y” at Oak Hill is the intersection of HWY 290W towards Dripping Springs and HWY 71 towards Bee Cave and Lake Travis. Many shops and amenities have congregated at the “Y” and in the surrounding area. Oak Hill boasts its own newspaper, The Oak Hill Gazette, providing news and community information for the area.
Oak Hill residents have access to excellent schools on all levels. Regents School of Austin is a prominent neighbor and Austin Waldorf School can be found on the outskirts of Oak Hill off Circle Drive. The ACC Pinnacle Campus is nestled in the hills of Southwest Austin off of HWY 290W. Family-friendly to the core, camps of all kinds for children and the young at heart can be found tucked down country roads in Oak Hill.
While the boundaries of this community are hard to nail down, this area of Southwest Austin continues to beckon residents to wooded home-sites OR master-planned communities. Whichever way you wish to go, Oak Hill provides options for both and everything in between.
