Overview

Inside Willow Bay

Willow Bay is a 1,600-home master plan in east Frisco developed by Hillwood Communities, made up of the Villages at Willow Bay and the Arbors at Willow Bay sections. Gehan Homes bought the last 58 finished lots in 2016, and homes on the market in October 2026 were built from 2006 to 2019. Residents share a pool, hike and bike trails and Yucca Ridge Park, with ball fields, a playscape and a basketball court.

The lesson here is that Willow Bay is a mid-priced, mid-aged Frisco ISD option, so condition wins the sale. In October 2026, 14 active listings ran from $499,900 to $798,000, and most were zoned to Heritage High with a few going to Independence High. If you are selling, fix the inspection items before you list and price against same-section sales. If you are buying, confirm the high school for the exact street, because it is not the same across the whole community.

Taxes, MUD and PID

For tax year 2025, a typical Frisco home pays about 1.63% to 1.87% combined depending on county and school district, and Collin County homes also pay the Collin College rate. I confirm every taxing entity, including any special district, on the appraisal district record for the address before you write an offer.
