Default The hills of Lakeway

Is that a good community for a family with a young child? We are having a hard time deciding between The Hills, Falconhead and Steiner.
Falconhead seems a bit removed.
Schools are not an issue as we'll be doing private one, anyway.
Thanks for all the input!

There are lots of retired people living in the hills, so no it is not the ideal place for kids. Falconhead and Steiner on the other hand are great for little ones!

Sorry to disagree, but the Hills used to be a retired area mostly but as with the rest of Lakeway it is full of families now.

There are tons of kids in the Hills and young families out for walks, bike rides, etc all the time.

My son has lots of friends that live in there.

The Hills is a community for all ages! This neighborhood has a great mixture. Though known as a golf community, families love it there because it is a guarded gated community and enjoy the social memberships that they belong to. The clubhouse offers a variety of activities, again, for all ages and the food is really good and very affordable.

Another positive I hear from homeowners is the mandatory tile roof and that each home has a different look rather than having a cookie cutter look.

I also hate disagree but the Hills has a majority of older retired people. As does Lakeway for that matter, just look at the statistics! Although there are younger people moving to Lakeway its still not close to Steiner or Falconhead.
