About Windcrest

Windcrest is a small, self-contained city in northeast San Antonio with its own police, fire, EMS, and city services — a peaceful, small-town feel inside the bigger metro. Homes skew mid-century ranch style on larger lots than typically found in surrounding subdivisions, and roughly 70% of occupied units are owner-occupied, notably higher than the San Antonio metro average.

The neighborhood’s parks, golf course, and recreational spaces encourage an outdoor, social pace of life, and easy highway access keeps commutes workable toward both Fort Sam Houston and the broader northeast employment corridor.

Schools: Windcrest is served by North East ISD (NEISD). Confirm your exact address at neisd.net before making a decision based on school assignment — district boundaries can vary block to block. (Publisher: North East ISD, checked 2026-08-19.)
