Suburban Neighborhood in San Antonio, Texas
Bexar County 78232, 78247
North East San Antonio is one of the city’s most fashionable, in-demand, and picturesque neighborhoods, and Thousand Oaks sits at the heart of this suburban paradise. From the forested walking paths of McAllister Park to the half-dozen major shopping centers scattered throughout this prestigious expanse, Thousand Oaks and the surrounding area offer near-limitless opportunities for entertainment, shopping, and the best of San Antonio living.
Realtor Cathy Tate of eXp Realty says of Thousand Oaks, “It’s one of the top suburbs in the San Antonio area. It offers a unique blend of community spirit and smalltown charm and is one of the best places to live in Texas.” Thousand Oaks and its nearby communities owe their origins to San Antonio’s suburbanization at the end of the 20th century. Communities like Preston Hollow are full of homes dating to the 1980s, while Steubing Ranch’s housing scene proliferated in the 1990s; Thousand Oaks Drive itself is lined with ranch-style homes built in the 2000s. These recently built homes are mostly ranch-style residences or bungalows, reflecting a regional preference for single-story homes. Homes in the area sell for between $200,000 and $450,000, offering prices both below and above the city average, and reflecting the diversity of housing styles and subdivisions within the Thousand Oaks area. Tate says, “Many of the neighborhoods are characterized by tree-lined streets and an abundance of oak trees that provide shade and scenic landscape.” Just as a warren of streets links disparate subdivisions into a larger community, neighborhood associations bring residents together. Tate says, “Residents take great pride in their community and are actively involved in various community organizations and events, with the HOA playing a pivotal role in organizing community activities. This makes for a very close-knit and supportive community that many find appealing.”
Students attend one of four elementary schools, including Thousand Oak’s own B-minus-rated Thousand Oaks Elementary School, as well as the A-minus-rated Bradley Middle School and the B-rated Madison High School. Madison has consistently ranked among the upper third of Texas’ best college prep public high schools, while also scoring highly in athletics and diversity. This abundance of accolades is sure to fill students with “Maverick” pride.
There is no shortage of picturesque parks in the area, the largest of which is McAllister Park. This 976-acre green space, preserved as an oasis of nature and greenery since 1968, is home to 5 miles of asphalt trails, 10 miles of unpaved bicycle and cross-country trails, and baseball and soccer fields. Whether locals are in the mood for a tree-shaded stroll, taking their dogs to the local dog park, or simply desire a scenic backdrop for an afternoon picnic, McAllister Park is a hub of all outdoor activities.
Thousand Oaks’ abundance of major shopping malls is just as appealing as this community’s tight-knit nature. The popular H-E-B supermarket can be found at many of these outlets, as can chain and local restaurants, a Regal movie theatre, and big-box stores like Walmart and Costco. One local favorite, at the heart of Thousand Oaks, is the Dashi Chinese Kitchen + Bar, where gourmands can enjoy Sichuan-style meat, noodle, and vegetable dishes within a colorful, thematic atmosphere that takes visitors on a cultural and culinary adventure.
Residents live within 6.5 miles of the San Antonio International Airport and 15 miles of downtown San Antonio, ensuring that locals can enjoy both the suburban seclusion of Thousand Oaks and easy access to some of the city’s greatest amenities.
