About Fair Oaks Ranch
Fair Oaks Ranch was established in 1978 as one of the first master-planned communities in the Texas Hill Country, incorporated as its own city in 1986. It sits less than 15 miles from San Antonio and less than 10 miles from Boerne — a secluded Hill Country feel without giving up city access, built around a large country club golf course.
Housing ranges from cozy ranch-style homes to spacious acreage estates, mostly built after 2000, with prices generally starting around $300K and running well into the millions. This is a watchful, owner-occupied community — many residents are long-term, which shapes a settled, established character.
Schools: Most of Fair Oaks Ranch is served by Boerne ISD, though the city spans Bexar, Comal, and Kendall counties, so a small portion may fall under a neighboring district. Confirm your exact address at boerneisd.net before making a decision based on school assignment — district boundaries can vary block to block. (Publisher: Boerne ISD, checked 2026-08-19.)
