Listing data ties more than 80 subdivisions to Newsome. They include most of the original FishHawk Ranch villages, Starling and The Preserve, nearby Lithia communities such as FishHawk Trails, Channing Park, Hawkstone and Creek Ridge Preserve, and some subdivisions with Riverview and Valrico addresses, such as Triple Creek, Boyette Springs and Twin Lakes.
That range covers almost every kind of home: townhomes in FishHawk Ridge and Kinglet Ridge listing in the $230,000s to low $300,000s, single-family homes from the high $300,000s to the $800,000s across most villages, and custom homes over $1 million in Avocet, Chapman Crossing, Dunlin Wood and The Preserve (listing snapshot, November 2026).
The important part: attendance zones are set by address and can change when the district redraws boundaries. A subdivision showing up on a list is not a guarantee. Before you write an offer on any home, we confirm the elementary, middle and high school for that exact address with Hillsborough County Public Schools. You can also check it yourself with the district’s school locator.
