About Four Points
Four Points is a residential district in northwest Austin named for the intersection of FM 620 (Ranch Road 620) and RM 2222 (Ranch Road 2222), in the 78726 and 78730 zip codes of western Travis County. Rather than a single subdivision, Four Points is an umbrella term for a cluster of residential communities that share the same approximate location, school zoning, and access corridors — including Steiner Ranch, River Place, Grandview Hills, the Preserve at Four Points, and nearby neighborhoods along FM 620 and RM 2222.
Communities within the Four Points district vary in age, lot size, price point, and amenity structure. Some are gated master-planned communities with resort amenities (such as Steiner Ranch and River Place), while others are smaller subdivisions with more modest HOA structures or none at all. Housing includes mid-range single-family homes, custom estates, townhomes, and some patio-home communities, on lots ranging from standard suburban to several acres.
Four Points is served by Leander ISD. Elementary, middle, and high school assignments vary by specific subdivision, but many Four Points neighborhoods feed into River Place Elementary, Four Points Middle School, and Vandegrift High School. Downtown Austin is approximately 15 to 20 miles southeast via FM 2222 or 360, typically 25 to 40 minutes depending on traffic.
Because Four Points is an umbrella term for multiple independent subdivisions rather than a single development, HOA structures, amenities, gating, and home prices vary significantly across the district. Some Four Points neighborhoods are gated 24/7 with staffed entrances (notably River Place and portions of Steiner Ranch), while others operate under standard HOA governance or no HOA at all. Buyers interested in specific Four Points subdivisions should evaluate each community individually for HOA dues, covenants, and amenity access.
Living in Four Points
Four Points takes its character from the intersection of FM 620 and RM 2222. The corridor anchors the area's retail and service base, with grocery, restaurants, coffee shops, medical offices, and other amenities along both highways. H-E-B and other major retailers are within a short drive, and the Four Points retail cluster has expanded substantially since the 2010s to serve the growing population in surrounding subdivisions.
The district's Hill Country setting means most neighborhoods sit on rolling, tree-covered terrain with views of the surrounding hills or Lake Austin. Outdoor recreation options include River Place Nature Trail, Bull Creek District Park, and access to Lake Austin via Mansfield Dam Park and the Pennybacker Bridge area. The Balcones Canyonlands Preserve system protects significant Hill Country habitat along and near the RM 2222 corridor.
Four Points is served by Leander ISD, one of Central Texas's consistently top-rated school districts. Vandegrift High School, located in the Four Points area, serves many of the district's subdivisions and is known for its academic and athletic programs. Daily commutes to downtown Austin run approximately 25 to 40 minutes via RM 2222, Loop 360, and MoPac, while the Apple Parmer campus and the Domain are approximately 10 to 15 miles east.
