Here in Leander we are growing we have a new TOD (Transit Oriented Development) being designed and opening later this year. A strange new way to get around, a "commuter rail line" is apparently different from "light rail" allowing citizens to use the rail line to avoid the traffic. The really great part is the anchor will be like the rail station in Portland, where restaurants and shoe stores and mom and pop coffee shops are all within a few feet, residential homes on the second and third floors. Leander has tripled in size over the last 3 years, our population expectations to grow 10 fold in 10 years. The rail line will take you into Austin, to the airport, and eventually to San Antonio. It is exciting to witness a growing community, of course the news wants you to believe the markets are'nt as good, but the truth is we are doing just fine. Here you can still buy a home for $125,000. the schools are good and the potential for growth is phenomenal.
