What it’s like
The place. Leon Valley is a small city within Bexar County, with a median age a little older than you might expect in a Texas city. Incomes run below the county's, and there are slightly more owners than renters, though renting is common too. Winters are mild, with little or no snow, and summers are hot, with August the warmest month and rain spread through the year.
Work. Many residents work in schools, hospitals and social care, and in professional and business services, with shops, restaurants and hotels also employing a good share. Northside ISD is among the largest workplaces in town, along with the School of Science and Technology and the pest control company Rollins. The typical commute is a fairly long one, and only a small share of people work from home.
Things to do. A short drive takes you to San Antonio Zoo and to the Tower of the Americas, one of the city's best known attractions. Families can also reach Six Flags Fiesta Texas, an amusement park, a short drive away. For a longer outing, San Antonio Missions National Historical Park is a protected area a longer drive off.
