Del Valle Lifestyle
Located invitingly close to the heart of the city, Del Valle is a straight shot down Highway 183 into Downtown Austin. The area was once a little pocket for military personnel, but when Bergstrom Air Force Base was closed in 1993 and renovated into an international airport by the City of Austin, Del Valle transformed into a rural suburban enclave.
The area has seen steady growth while remaining largely rural over the last two decades, allowing Del Valle to be home to a number of outdoor venues, breweries, and spacious homesite developments.
