The neighborhood has a town-center feel, with retail, restaurants, and a farmers market within walking distance of most homes. Parks and hike-and-bike trails connect the blocks, and the Thinkery children's museum anchors one corner of the development.
Housing in Mueller runs from townhomes and condos to single-family homes, most built from the mid-2000s onward.
