The Leander market specifically
Leander is the far northwest edge of the metro and the thinnest market covered here, with options clustered near Crystal Falls Parkway. Most Leander families end up considering Cedar Park as well, which is close enough to be practical for regular visits.
Because Leander's own licensed capacity is thin, most families here end up choosing in Cedar Park or Round Rock. Treat the search radius as the 183A corridor rather than the city limit, and the options open up considerably.
The question about money nobody asks early enough
Ask what happens if private funds run out, and whether the community contracts with Medicaid managed care. A meaningful share of Austin-area communities do not participate at all, which converts a funding problem into a forced move at the worst possible moment.
Ask how many current residents are on STAR+PLUS. A community can hold a contract and still have no Medicaid capacity available.
