What it’s like
The place. Grey Forest is a very small city, home to far fewer people than most Texas towns, and its residents skew older than the county as a whole. Nearly everyone here owns their home, and home values run high. Poverty is uncommon, and a majority of adults hold a four-year degree. Winters are mild and short, with little or no snow, while summers turn very hot by August, and the year brings a moderate amount of rain.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, with others in professional and business services, shops, and restaurants, hotels and entertainment. Across Bexar County, some of the largest workplaces are Northside ISD, Methodist Hospital and The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. The county's unemployment rate is a little higher than a year earlier, and its number of jobs has grown only slightly.
Things to do. Six Flags Fiesta Texas, an amusement park, is a short drive away, and the roller coasters inside it, such as Iron Rattler, are close by too. A longer drive leads to San Antonio Missions National Historical Park, a protected area preserving the region's historic missions. The San Antonio Zoo is also a longer drive away.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Grey Forest’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively moderate. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Bexar County and the San Antonio-New Braunfels, TX metro.
