Deep community pride in San Jose

With heavy cultural influences and national historic sites right in their backyards, the residents of the San Antonio neighborhood of San Jose have pride in their community that runs deep. “San Jose’s been making a lot of noise lately, and the people who live there are liking it,” says Kristen Galloway, a longtime resident of San Antonio who frequents the city’s arts and culture scene. “They’re not far from downtown at all, so they’ve got their finger on the pulse of the city,” and with the community being right off Interstate 35, it’s easy to find the way to San Jose.

South Park Mall and the Mayan Theater

Just across I-35, South Park Mall is a virtual one-stop shop for shopping and dining. The mall is home to major department stores like Macy’s and JCPenny, famous brands like Old Navy and PacSun and restaurants that include Famous Cajun Grill and Side Wok Café. The area also has big box stores like Target to grab everything from groceries to electronics. There’s an H-E-B Plus! just two blocks from the mall for more extensive grocery shopping. A quick drive down I-35 goes straight into downtown San Antonio, opening even more shopping and fine dining options along the River Walk.

Nearby events in Downtown San Antonio

Downtown San Antonio is the epicenter of the city’s special events, and residents have plenty to participate in. From arts- and culture-focused events like Fiesta San Antonio and Day of the Dead celebrations to regular weekend programs and live performances in Market Square, there’s always something going on, and the I-35 keeps San Jose residents in the mix.

New constructions and established, colorful homes

Open green fields on wide streets categorize the scenery in San Jose. While new builds are slowly reaching the area, older homes are more prevalent, sitting on moderately sized lots with well-manicured lawns. Larger brick ranch-style homes have built-in patios, while smaller ones sit away from the curb with large lawns decorated with trees and some featuring carports. Newer two-story homes come with attached garages and offset entryways, and it’s very common to find most yards in the area fenced in. Price tags in the area are generally in the $100,000s and $200,000s, with new builds ranging from the mid-$200,000s to the high $300,000s.

San Antonio Missions National Historical Park

Home of the San Antonio Missions National Historical Park, San Jose has a deeply rooted culture with ties to the beginnings of Texas. While preserving these historic Catholic missions, the park offers ranger-led guided tours of the four — Concepción, San José, San Juan and Espada — and audio stations discussing the missions' history. The Missions Hike & Bike Trail is located along the San Antonio River, connecting the four missions with The Alamo, with a distance of about 2.5 miles between each location. Don’t forget to watch for the natural wildlife along the way.
