About Zip Code 78719
Zip code 78719 covers a portion of southeast Austin and unincorporated Travis County surrounding Austin-Bergstrom International Airport (ABIA), located approximately 10 miles southeast of downtown Austin. The zip code spans the area around SH-71 and US-183 south of the Colorado River, including portions of the Onion Creek floodplain and the developing commercial corridors adjacent to the airport. Historically rural and agricultural, the area has begun transitioning as airport expansion, the Tesla Gigafactory in adjacent 78725, and new logistics facilities drive interest in southeast Austin. The terrain is flat to gently rolling Blackland Prairie with scattered stands of mesquite and live oak.
Residential real estate in 78719 is limited compared to other Austin zip codes, as much of the area falls within airport approach zones and noise corridors that restrict residential development. Existing homes are primarily older properties on larger lots along FM 973 and SH-71, ranging from $250K to $500K. Some manufactured homes on acreage parcels are available starting around $175K. New residential development is concentrated on the edges of the zip code outside noise restriction zones, with builders offering homes from $300K to $450K. Commercial and industrial properties dominate the landscape closer to the airport, including cargo facilities, rental car operations, and hospitality businesses.
Students in 78719 attend Del Valle ISD, which serves approximately 12,000 students across 16 campuses in southeast Travis County. Elementary schools in the area include Creedmoor Elementary and Baty Elementary. Del Valle Middle School and Del Valle High School handle the upper grades. Del Valle ISD has a diverse student population and offers career and technical education programs, dual-language instruction, and early college high school options in partnership with Austin Community College. The district's tax base benefits from the airport and surrounding commercial properties.
The 78719 zip code's primary asset is its proximity to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, which served over 17 million passengers in its most recent full year of operations. The airport is accessible via SH-71 and US-183. Downtown Austin is approximately 15 minutes northwest. The Tesla Gigafactory in nearby 78725 is one of the largest manufacturing facilities in the region, and Samsung's semiconductor campus in Taylor is about 30 minutes northeast. SH-130 runs along the eastern edge of the zip code, providing toll road access to Round Rock and north Austin. The area is expected to see continued commercial and residential growth as airport-adjacent development accelerates.
