About Schertz
Schertz sits in the northeast San Antonio metro along I-35, close enough to Randolph AFB to draw steady military demand while offering modern suburban infrastructure — planned communities, chain retail, and family-oriented amenities rather than small-town walkability. Four neighborhoods lead buyer demand: The Crossvine (an award-winning master-planned community with a resort-style pool and miles of trails), Belmont Park, Rhine Valley, and Riata.
Housing spans a wide range — established sections start in the mid-$200Ks, while newer construction in areas like Northcliff runs $500K and up. The city has been recognized as one of the Best Places to Live by Money Magazine, and the I-35 location keeps commutes workable in multiple directions, not just toward Randolph.
