From gorgeous pools to stunning Hill Country views, these 5 communities are the most luxurious neighborhoods in San Antonio.
Far more than merely a collection of expensive homes, a true “luxury neighborhood” goes above and beyond the blueprint, providing residents with a high-quality, well-designed lifestyle. But just which high-end San Antonio subdivisions truly offer this sort of holistic grandeur?
To help make the search easier, we’ve narrowed down the long list of San Antonio luxury neighborhoods to the “Top 5,” taking into account everything from amenities to architecture.
5. Hill Country Village: Prime Location
Holding its own as the 7th wealthiest location in Texas by per capita income, Hill Country Village is nestled quietly and serenely just inside Loop 1604. Though its population is just under 1,000 residents, the neighborhood’s sprawling mansions, mature oak trees, and generous acreage create a sense of private luxury while still remaining accessible to San Antonio shopping and entertainment. Because Hill Country Village is an enclave of San Antonio, the neighborhood maintains its own police department (adding to the overall security value) and is served by the highly-rated North East ISD (one of San Antonio’s Top 10 Districts!). Overall, this neighborhood offers beautifully designed luxury homes nestled in a highly coveted Hill Country setting.
