Austin Texas Neighborhood Profiles: Scofield Farms

The history of the Scofield Farms community provides an important clue as to why this neighborhood is considered to be one of the most coveted in the Austin real estate market. Development of the community began in the 1980s, when a small number of cozy 1200-1600 square foot houses were built. By the early 1990s, building continued with different builders.
