Gateway city between San Antonio and the suburbs
Leon Valley is in the middle of San Antonio, but this self-sufficient city has an identity all its own. The community is a gateway between Alamo City and the suburbs. To one side of Leon Valley are the museums of downtown and the employment hub of the Medical Center, and to the other side are tourist attractions like SeaWorld and Six Flags Fiesta Texas. The city also has its own benefits for locals, including its own fire and police department, several large parks, an aquarium and a weekly farmers market. The city has a diverse range of houses of worship, from the nondenominational Faith Church on Huebner Road to the finely decorated Dhammabucha Buddhist Temple on Sawyer Road.
Leon Valley was incorporated in 1954 and has grown to over 11,542 residents.
Leon Valley spans along the Bandera Highway, the main roadway through the area.

Leon Valley’s subdivisions fill up the small city
Across Leon Valley’s subdivisions, it is common to see traditional ranch homes and Craftsman-influenced properties built along narrow front yards lined with neat sidewalks. Many residences currently on the market in Leon Valley were built in the 1970s and 1980s, and while they have been remodeled, there are not many new homes coming to the city. “Because of its proximity and location, it’s desirable, so it’s almost 100% built out,” says Henry Herrera, a San Antonio native and Realtor with Keller Williams. “There’s not a lot of growth there because San Antonio defines its borders, and there’s literally no room for growth.” The average price range for the city is between $250,000 for a simple ranch residence to $400,000 for a renovated two-story property with an in-ground pool.
If you're looking for unique older homes, Leon Valley has pockets of Tutor inspired homes.

Sari-Sari has some of the nation’s best comfort food
Leon Valley is filled with specialty markets, many of which offer prepared food to go or to enjoy in-store. On Bandera Road, Cantonese barbeque is roasted fresh daily at Tim’s Oriental & Seafood Market, and Nigerian cuisine is available from Southwest Farmers Market. Authentic Filipino food is served at the family-owned Sari-Sari Filipino Restaurant, Market & Bakery on Wurzbach Road. Sari-Sari’s Crispy Pasta was even featured in Food Network’s “Cheat Day USA” as some of the most comfort food in the country.
Multiple large shopping centers, including the Ingram Park Mall off Interstate 410, border Leon Valley. This retail hub is filled with clothing, hobby and tech shops. The Village at the Summit, also off I-410, mainly has chain restaurants and everyday needs like Walmart and Sam’s Club, as well as a 16-screen movie theater. For fresh produce and crafts from local artists, the San Antonio Farmer’s Market Association holds a market at the Leon Valley Library on Evers Road every Wednesday morning.

Crime
Leon Valley has an overall CAP Index Crime Score of 6 and some high individual scores, including an 8 in theft and a 7 in burglary. However, Leon Valley benefits from its own police department, which has a prominent presence in the community. “One of the things people in Leon pride themselves on is the police force,” Herrera says. “There is not a lot of crime, and the police force patrols frequently and is very known.”
