Brentwood

Get to know the local places, then explore what the public record says: construction, restaurant inspection scores and beverage receipts, with dates and sources beside the data.

About this mapped area City boundary · September 22, 2021

Brentwood is one of 65 named areas in the City of Austin Neighborhood Planning Areas boundary dataset. The saved source records its planning status as plan approved. These mapped categories differ from colloquial neighborhood names. Districts people name in conversation, like South Congress, Rainey Street or the Sixth Street entertainment district, are not separate areas in this dataset; they sit inside a planning area or straddle two. This boundary merges 2 polygons from the city's file, covering the sub-district the city names ROMERIA GATEWAY, with ordinance 20040513-030 recorded in the source, and the city last modified it on . The dataset stores the name as BRENTWOOD.

The local field guide

Brentwood: a neighborhood pool and a shared planning story

Arroyo Seco is the address to know for Brentwood Pool. The seasonal swimming facility gives this guide a concrete local starting point, while the Brentwood/Highland Combined plan places the neighborhood in a broader civic context.

3 linked sources · Checked

Find Brentwood Pool

The city lists Brentwood Pool at 6710 Arroyo Seco Street. Its facility page describes a four-lane, 20-yard outdoor pool with a chair lift, benches and an outdoor shower.[2]

Keep the season in view

The pool page checked for this guide marks the facility closed for the winter season and directs readers to a summer schedule. Use its live listing before making a swimming plan.[2]

Brentwood and Highland share a plan

The city’s planning resources group Brentwood and Highland in a combined neighborhood plan. The linked plan, future land-use map and implementation material describe that shared planning framework.[1]

Plan a little better

Before you go

Plan a swim from the facility page
Confirm Brentwood’s current status first. If it is closed, Austin’s citywide pool directory lists other aquatic facilities and explains how weather or maintenance can affect access.[2][3]
Check lift availability directly
The pool page lists a chair lift. Contact the facility before your trip if you need to confirm a particular accessibility feature.[2]

A few things to know

Where can I check Brentwood Pool accessibility?

The city’s dedicated pool listing identifies a chair lift and other facility details. Contact the operator through that page for a specific access requirement.[2]

Is Brentwood Pool a year-round swimming destination?

Do not assume so. The checked city listing identifies a winter closure and directs readers to a summer schedule.[2]

What the public record says about Brentwood

  • City of Austin Development Services has issued 5,930 building permits that it has geocoded inside the Brentwood planning-area boundary, the earliest dated January 17, 1979 and the most recent September 28, 2026, for a combined declared construction value of $791,659,772. Declared value is the figure an applicant puts on the permit application — not market value and not finished cost. Counted over every issue date in the city’s Issued Construction Permits dataset (3syk-w9eu), building permits only. Placing a permit inside a boundary needs a mapped coordinate, and about one building permit in seven (13.8% of them, as published on 2026-07-26) carries no location at all — those rows cannot be placed in any neighbourhood, here or anywhere else, so this is a count of geocoded permits rather than of every permit issued. How busy it is now is a different question, and the list below is the honest answer to it: the 25 most recently issued permits here were all issued since July 17, 2026.
  • The 3 most recent restaurant inspections we could place inside this boundary run from August 21, 2026 to September 2, 2026, averaging 89 out of 100. Austin Public Health publishes these in irregular batches, historically weeks after the visit, and this page lists at most 15 — so that count is the size of our list, not the number of restaurants in Brentwood. A score is a single-visit snapshot.
  • Of the 100 highest-grossing mixed-beverage filers the Texas Comptroller lists for ZIP 78756, 78751, 78752, 78757, 78705, 6 sit inside this boundary. The newest filing in that set is August 2026. Per-venue figures are gross receipts reported to the Comptroller, summed over each venue’s own filing months — never a total for Brentwood. Filings are monthly and land three to four weeks late.

Bars & restaurants filing receipts

Texas Comptroller mixed-beverage filers we placed inside this boundary

6 of 100 filers in ZIP 78756, 78751, 78752, 78757, 78705 placed inside this boundary. Each venue’s figure is its own gross receipts over its own filing months — there is deliberately no area total, because this is a sample, not a census.

Brentwood: questions people actually ask

Is Brentwood an official Austin neighborhood?

Brentwood is one of 65 named areas in the City of Austin neighborhood-planning boundary dataset. Its status in the saved source is plan approved. Inclusion in this file does not by itself mean a neighborhood plan was adopted. Well-known districts such as South Congress, Rainey Street and the Sixth Street entertainment district are not separate areas in this dataset; they sit inside a planning area, or straddle two. The Brentwood boundary merges 2 sub-district polygons from the source file. The city last modified it on September 22, 2021.

Which ordinances are recorded for Brentwood?

City of Austin ordinance number 20040513-030 is recorded against this planning area in the city's Neighborhood Planning Areas dataset, with planning status plan approved.

How much construction is happening in Brentwood?

City of Austin Development Services has issued 5,930 building permits that it has geocoded inside the Brentwood planning-area boundary, the earliest dated January 17, 1979 and the most recent September 28, 2026, for a combined declared construction value of $791,659,772. Declared value is the figure the applicant put on the permit application, not market value or finished cost. Counted from the city's Issued Construction Permits dataset (3syk-w9eu), building permits only, over every issue date in that dataset. The boundary test needs a mapped coordinate, and about one building permit in seven (13.8% as published on 2026-07-26) carries no location, so those rows cannot be placed in any neighbourhood and are not in this figure.

What ZIP codes cover Brentwood?

No ZIP code centroid falls inside the Brentwood boundary, so we search the 5 nearest instead: 78756, 78751, 78752, 78757, 78705. We match ZIP codes to planning areas by testing each ZIP's centroid against the boundary polygon, so a large ZIP can overlap an area without its centre landing inside it. Use the boundary, not the ZIP, as the authority.
