Huebner/Leon Creeks

• Neighborhood in San Antonio, TX
• 20 reviews

Niche User: San Antonio is a huge city. So the rates of crime are going to be different in all the different areas. I'm in the north side of town, and one of the better sides. Although there's some incidences of robberies, it's overall not that bad. There's always police patrolling around, but usually that's just to catch people texting or speeding. Overall, it's a really safe here, and kids are always playing outside and are able to go to and from school without any incidences.

Fort Sam Houston

• Neighborhood in San Antonio, TX
• 20 reviews

Current Resident: Attending Robert G. Cole High School has been my first experience at a public school on a military base. Every student's parent or parents are in the military, and all of my classmates can identify with each other. Most students move every three years or less. For this reason, it has inspired me to step out of my comfort zone and welcome newcomers. Similarly, Joint-Base Fort Sam Houston reflects our nation's values and creates community through culture and diversity.

Northwest

• Neighborhood in San Antonio, TX
• 185 reviews

Niche User: I find this quiet suburb very easy to be comfortable in. Access to anything I need is within a few miles or less. Neighbors are friendly and respectful. People have good pet etiquette, and are very active outside. It's nice to see the younger generation outside helping with chores like the lawn or washing cars. I'm sure there are many lovely places around the country to live, but for now San Antonio is my city and I love it. This area of San Antonio is growing fast, but maintaining nice homesteads and the city is on top of making sure the roads are growing with the area in helps of maintaining less traffic and easy flow to where you need to get to. You can see stars are night, hear the doves and woodpeckers, which is difficult nearer to the city with all the lights and sounds. The most beautiful this is to watch the sunset.

I truly enjoy living here.
