Walsh (the villages): the field profile

The 7,200-acre flagship, organized in planning areas ('villages') that matter financially: areas 1–3 carry the lower ~$0.18 PID assessment while newer areas run ~$0.36 — same community, meaningfully different tax bills. Production mid-$500s–$900s, custom past $1M, Walsh Elementary on-site.

The file

Current market scale	~9 resale + active builder inventory
Schools	Walsh Elementary (K–5, in-community) → McAnally Middle → Aledo High; verify per lot.
Tax posture	2.689% total incl. PID — the full math.

Inventory counts from public MLS-portal community pages, July 2026 — they move weekly; treat as scale, not stock. Pricing, HOA dues, taxing units and zoned campuses must be verified per lot.

The buyer's read

Ask which planning area a lot sits in FIRST — it's a ~$1,000+/yr question on a $600K home. Resale inside Walsh can beat new on total cost when it sits in a low-PID area. The definitive Walsh guide has the whole picture. Run any candidate through the calculator at the right tax basis, and check this month's incentive picture if new construction is in play.
