About Castle Hills
Castle Hills is an independent city that combines its own local governance with San Antonio-adjacent pricing — most homes sit on quarter-acre to half-acre lots, notably larger than the roughly 6,000-square-foot standard in newer San Antonio subdivisions. The housing stock reflects mid-century development: mid-century modern and ranch-style architecture, terrazzo floors, large windows, and masonry exteriors not common in newer tract housing.
At about 10 minutes from downtown and 20 minutes from Fort Sam Houston, the location works for both civilian and military commutes. This is an area for buyers who specifically want established character and larger lots over newer construction.
