New builds were 53.8% of the closings in Manchaca’s ZIP code in the three months ending October 15, 2026, against none of the town’s. In my read, the ZIP is a wider area than the town, so a home listed under the Manchaca city name belongs with the town column, and a home elsewhere in the ZIP belongs with the ZIP column.

No Manchaca price range reached 10 sales in the last three months, so none is tabled, and I read each range on the twelve-month basis instead.
Each reading is for that range only, and a price point changes which market a home is in. On twelve months, most ranges with enough sales read balanced, one reads as a buyer’s market and one as a seller’s market, and the exact ranges are in the list below.
