The Most Expensive School Zones in Austin. Are They Worth It?
Bridge Point Elementary scored a 93 on the 2025 TEA accountability rating, earning a A. Eanes Elementary scored a 95, earning a A. Both serve the greater Austin metro area, and buyers comparing these two zones will find that the differences go well beyond the headline numbers. The neighborhoods, the price points, and the long term school pathways each tell their own story.
Both campuses are in Eanes ISD. The median home price near Bridge Point sits around $3,270,000, while Eanes’s zone comes in at $2,698,000. That price context matters as much as the TEA scores when you are making a real estate decision, and I have found that most buyers care about both.
I have been helping buyers navigate school zones across the Austin area for 19 years, and comparisons like this one come up in my conversations all the time. So lets dig into the data and figure out what it actually means for your home search.
