About Sunny Ridge
Sunny Ridge is a residential subdivision in Kyle, Texas, located in Hays County along the Interstate 35 corridor between Austin and San Marcos. The neighborhood sits within the 78640 zip code, approximately 20 miles south of downtown Austin. Kyle is one of the fastest-growing cities in Texas, with its population more than tripling since 2010 as affordable land prices and I-35 access drew residential development south from Austin. Sunny Ridge is part of the wave of master-planned communities that transformed Kyle from a small railroad town into a suburban city.
Homes in Sunny Ridge are primarily single-family residences built in the 2010s and 2020s by production builders.
