UTSA or the Medical Center?

UTSA’s Main Campus sits along Loop 1604 and UTSA Boulevard. The South Texas Medical Center centers on roads including Babcock, Medical Drive and Floyd Curl. Both matter to a Northwest search, but they point you toward different parts of the area.

Before you choose a home

  • Check the exact school assignment

    For homes in Northside ISD, school assignments depend on the street address. Use the district’s lookup for each home rather than relying on the neighborhood name.

  • Look beyond the broad search label

    A “Northwest San Antonio” search can cover a lot of ground. Compare by subdivision, too: homes in Great Northwest may appear under names such as Silver Creek or Timberwilde. Those details help you find homes in the part of town you actually want.

  • Know which amenities come with it

    A nearby pool or clubhouse is not automatically included with every home. Confirm the association, current dues, access requirements and rules for the property you are considering.
