Spring Hill Village: Everyday Convenience at the Heart of 78660
About Spring Hill Village
Spring Hill Village feels like the part of Wells Branch where errands, coffee runs, and weeknight plans are all close enough that you rarely need to “make a trip” out of it. It’s the kind of neighborhood where an H-E-B run can be a quick stop on the way home, and where grabbing a drink at Lucky Lounge is close enough to feel like a neighborhood hangout rather than a destination. When you want something quieter, the Wells Branch Community Library about a mile and a half away is a familiar reset button—easy to pop into for a hold pickup or a study session.
The broader 78660 area around Spring Hill Village reads as young and established at the same time. With a median age of 35.6, there’s a steady rhythm of households balancing careers and family schedules, and that shows up in how people use nearby amenities—morning coffee at Donut Palace, a quick workout at Planet Fitness, or an evening practice at the Wells Branch Soccer Complex. The area’s size also matters in daily life; with a ZIP-area population of 124,834, you get the energy and services of a major North Austin metro corridor without the constant feeling of being downtown.
Homeownership is a defining part of the neighborhood’s identity. In the surrounding ZIP, about 63.5% of homes are owner-occupied, which tends to translate into pride-of-place details you can feel on a drive through the streets: consistent upkeep, weekend projects, and neighbors who know each other by routine as much as by name. The housing market reflects that stability, with a median home value of $411,900 shaping expectations for buyers who want to be close to Wells Branch and Pflugerville conveniences while still landing in a neighborhood that reads residential first.
Spring Hill Village also sits in an unusually school-rich pocket for families who want options. Within a short drive you’ll find A-rated campuses like HARMONY SCIENCE ACADEMY-PFLUGERVILLE, BASIS PFLUGERVILLE, and VALOR NORTH AUSTIN, along with established district schools like Hendrickson H S. Put together, it attracts residents who like having choices—different school models, different after-school routines, and different ways to plug into community life—while still keeping daily necessities like groceries, libraries, and recreation close to home.

What is the cost of living in Spring Hill Village?
A full cost-of-living index and Regional Price Parity (RPP) numbers weren’t provided for Spring Hill Village, so I can’t break down overall costs, housing, goods, or utilities using the “100 = U.S. average” framework for this specific area. What we can speak to directly is property tax and typical housing-related costs. In Travis County, the county property tax rate is $0.3758 per $100 of valuation, and that county layer is only one piece of your total bill; school district and any city or special district rates would add to it, but those rates weren’t provided here, so a combined estimated rate can’t be calculated from the available data. Housing costs in the 78660 area reflect a median home value of $411,900, and renters see a median gross rent of $1,863 per month. Many households weigh those costs against earnings, and the ZIP’s median household income of $113,205 provides context for affordability. Also keep in mind a major Texas advantage: there’s no state income tax, which can help offset higher property tax totals depending on your situation. For a precise estimate, you’ll want to confirm the home’s assessed value and the applicable school and local taxing jurisdictions for the specific address.
