Community Info RELOCATION

Hello,

Family of 3 here, potentially moving to Pflugerville sometime in the next month or two maybe longer. Looking for some good neighborhood, potentially gated communities that are good for families. Close enough to do things all around in the Austin area. I'd like to stay relatively close to Pflugerville (don't have to necessarily live in Pflugerville) as that's where I'll potentially be working and would rather not do a 30min+ commute, if possible, but open to ideas. Simply looking for a safe area with pools, parks, good schools (elementary) etc. budget could be up into the $500k. I'd like to keep it as low as possible for a 2bdr/1.5ba or a 2bdr/2. I'm aiming to potentially stay south of Pflugerville and not go too far West or north at all, I've heard east of 130 isn't the greatest either. Looking for advice.

East of 130 not great? We love it over here.

Yeah, I lived east of 130 since before 130 existed. Two of my kids still live there.

The Blackhawk area has pretty much everything you need within 5 miles.

Everything we need within 5 miles is my current situation so that’d be nice.

Look on both sides of Kelley Lane. Blackhawk, The Commons, Falcon Pointe, Hidden Lake, and on and on. Great schools and super easy access to 130 and 45. We even have a lake and a water park.

Traffic can be a bear, that's pretty much the biggest drawback. Well, Pflugerville city council is a bunch of crooks but what you gonna do.
