Located in Guadalupe County
Marion is a rural community offering a small-town feel and new homes. Families attend local schools and community events. Most shopping and dining happen along Farm-to-Market Road 78 (FM 78), or in nearby towns. Residents live a quiet lifestyle about 10 to 30 minutes from spots like Cibolo , New Braunfels and nearby military bases.
Marion has a median sale price in the upper $200,000s, which is similar to San Antonio but lower than New Braunfels. Generally, homes around 3,000 square feet or more, and properties on at least an acre, sell from the lower $500,000s to the upper $800,000s. Smaller homes and lots generally cost between the upper $100,000s and the upper $400,000s.
Ronald Henry, broker and owner of Just Focus Real Estate, says that Marion attracts a variety of lifestyles. "It's the kind of community that has estate lots and half-acre lots. It just depends on what you're looking for. And there aren't as many HOAs, so you're still getting that small-town feel," Henry says. Some properties are used for farming, livestock or other purposes. Most listings are new builds. But there are some older homes, including Minimal Traditional and ranch styles. Newer homes are usually in residential developments built by various builders across the area. A few popular options include:
Norma Krueger Elementary School, sometimes called Marion Elementary, has two campuses. Younger children attend the Krueger Campus, while students in grades three through five attend the Karrer Campus. Students can also go to Marion Middle School and Marion High School. In 2025, residents approved a bond for future district upgrades and new buildings. Parents may apply to the Comal Independent School District through a student transfer application.
Locals usually drive 15 to 30 minutes for healthcare and big-box stores. CHRISTUS Santa Rosa Hospital is in New Braunfels, and Seguin has Guadalupe Regional Medical Center. An H-E-B and Walmart Supercenter are in Cibolo, about 10 to 15 minutes away. But locals can also shop inside the town. The Marion Cottage and Craft Market runs on the last Saturday of each month at Veterans Park. Most of Marion's businesses, stores and local restaurants are off FM 78. Residents can visit:
Marion Community Library recently extended its operating hours. Veterans Park, across the street, hosts events, like the City of Marion Christmas Tree Lighting. The local school district sponsors the Family Fall Festival at the middle school. Marion locals may also take day trips to San Antonio and attend events in Seguin, like the Guadalupe County Fair and Rodeo or Fireworks Fiesta.
"Marion is right outside of Cibolo. It's one of those smaller communities people are moving to because they are trying to get away from San Antonio and the traffic. It's also close to the Air Force bases," Henry says. Commuting to Randolph Air Force Base takes 15 minutes, or up to 30 during peak hours. Trips to New Braunfels can take between 15 and 25 minutes. Downtown San Antonio is about a 35- to 50-minute drive, depending on Interstate 10 traffic; some may also travel on Interstate 35.
