Alamo Heights Reviews
Rating 4.38 out of 5 21 reviews
It is a small community in the heart of San Antonio right next to downtown. It has its own school district with 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. Speaking from experience, it can be hard as a kid moving into Alamo Heights as a middle schooler or high schooler because everyone already knows everyone else. The public schools are fantastic though and you have close access to most day to day needs, from groceries, to dentist, and everything in between. The community is not very diverse and is predominately wealthy white families. Within Alamo Heights there are quieter areas with older population, areas of younger families, and even vibrant college housing near the University of Incarnate Word. This is an older area of San Antonio and so many of the houses are older, but more houses are built and remodeled every day. Overall It is a safe community with good schools, and the biggest downside is the cost of housing compared to other areas of San Antonio.
I live in a very safe neighborhood with grocery stores, schools, restaurants, and clothing stores all within walking distance. I feel comfortable walking around my neighborhood and passing by strangers, knowing there is usually a friendly face most likely 1000 feet away, wherever I go inside Alamo Heights.
Alamo Heights is a great community and is the perfect size for raising a family. It is very safe and close knit and also has an incredible public school district. Great for Families!
