Can anyone tell me of new developements in Schertz?


Are there any shopping centers breaking ground? New Restaurants? Other Stores?

I am very curious as I will be moving there this summer.

Also, What is in Cibolo, Selma, and Converse? Anything to do in those towns?


Appreciate any posts...

Thanks

Sir,

Schertz along with neighboring cities Cibolo and Selma is booming with retail develoment as well as residential.

In fact, in Selma, next to the new hotel and Hooters Restaurant, they are building a Costco.

In Schertz there are plenty of restaurants and shopping options with the Wal-Mart Super Center located right off the highway.

The eating options are numerous.

Bill Miller BBQ, Wendy's, McDonalds, Subway, Quiznos, Chilis, Garcia's, Pazzo Italiano, KFC, Pizza Hut, Little Ceasers, Dominos Pizza, Taco Bell and many more.

Just down the highway in Selma is a gigantic shopping center named The Forum which has everything you could possibly need. Across from the Forum is another shopping center that has home furnishings as well as a few other restaurants.

Just seconds away from that they are developing a huge upscale shopping center called The Fountains at Live Oak.

Sir, you can not go wrong with the Schertz/Cibolo area.

Great post!

Very informative. I was getting a little worried because I thought that Schertz was a little bit away from everything..But I guess I thought wrong. I knew it was growing residentially, but I didn't know it was growing commercially!

I was narrowed down to Schertz as it seemed to be growing unstoppably.

Thanks for the info!

Another question:

How long does it take to drive from Schertz to Downtown San Antonio?


Is the traffic bad around Schertz/Cibolo/Universal City?

Sir,

Traffic is growing and but the cities have done a fantastic job of implementing traffic lights and road expansions thus far and have kept traffic flowing smoothly.

From Schertz at rush hour on a weekday afternoon to get to downtown you would get on I-35S and head strait towrds downtown. You will see congestion on the I-35S/Loop 1604 Interchange and then again at the I-35S/Loop 410 Interchange and then again possibly at the I-35S/Loop 410S interchange but all in all it is not bad, especially compared to other large cities!

The travel time from Schertz to downtown SA in rush hour would be 30-40 minutes.

Without heavy traffic, it would be a strait shot at about 20 minutes.

I think you will find that traffic in San Antonio is a lot lighter than in most other places.

Sir, if you have any more questions regarding the Schertz/Cibolo area or San Antonio in general, please feel free to ask.

I hope this information has been able to give you some sort of ease and comfort as I know there is a lot of pressure and anxiety associated with re-locating.

The median cost of a home in Schertz is $139,900. Very affordiable housing in Schertz.
