Universal City Park has various styles of homes to suit any family's needs.
Centrally-located San Antonio suburb
Universal City is a 20,000-resident suburb conveniently located on the northeast side of San Antonio. “It’s at the intersection of I-35 and the 1604 corridor, so it’s incredibly centrally located,” says Cesar Amezcua, Broker and Owner at CA & Company, who has consistently been one of the Top 50 Residential Real Estate Agents recognized by the San Antonio Business Journal. Universal City is right across the road from JBSA-Randolph, attracting military personnel and their families. “It also has the new corporate headquarters for Randolph-Brooks Federal Credit Union,” Amezcua says. As Universal Park homes are so conveniently located near major highways and retail areas, the buyers' market is competitive.
Universal City Park has ahd a recent rise in planned neighborhoods and cul de sacs.

In the Cibolo Crossing subdivision, emerging new constructions average four bedrooms and stretch into the $500,000s. Apartments are also available to rent, ranging from $674 to $1,795 per month.

Universal city been living here for 6 years and so far its been great. At first it was in the middle of a forest but more residences popped and its now more of a suburb. There are still some trees but not as much as there used to be. The police and first respondents are top notch especially since this is a tri-city area where all units from each city support each other very safe.

Its a decent city, there are some things to do but for the main part you would have to venture outside of it to actually have fun.
