About Schertz/Cibolo

Schertz and Cibolo are neighboring cities northeast of San Antonio along the I-35 corridor, close to JBSA Randolph and connected to New Braunfels and the wider metro area. Established subdivisions, newer master-planned communities, and ongoing construction offer a range of home styles and lot sizes. Local parks, Main Street businesses, and regional shopping are everyday draws. Compare city limits, school districts, property taxes, HOA fees, and builder terms at the address level rather than assuming every Schertz or Cibolo home has the same services or costs.
