Bridgewood is a suburban community in Northwest San Antonio
In Northwest San Antonio, Bridgewood is a residential area blending suburban charm with urban convenience. It’s next to the Cross Creek subdivision, and the two communities offer a host of recreational amenities alongside Loop 1604 just outside the city limits. “Property taxes are a little bit lower in Bexar County, and San Antonio is very accommodating to every type of lifestyle,” says Tre Serrano, a Realtor with the Cavalry Realty Group. With lower taxes and a central location, Bridgewood offers comparative affordability without sacrificing highway access and proximity to downtown San Antonio, less than 25 miles away. The suburb is also part of the top-rated Northside Independent School District, which earns an overall grade of B-plus from Niche.

Loop 1604 connects Bridgewood to downtown San Antonio and beyond
Loop 1604 is part of a hub-and-spoke highway system surrounding downtown San Antonio. The highway connects residents to the rest of the Alamo City, and downtown attractions like the San Antonio River Walk are about 22 miles from Bridgewood. Loop 1604 also provides access to major thoroughfares such as U.S. Route 90 and State Highway 151. For more distant travels, San Antonio International Airport is around 22 miles away. Residents are also less than 20 miles from two military facilities at Joint Base San Antonio: the Lackland Air Force Base and Camp Bullis Military Training Reservation. “The military is one of the top reasons people move to San Antonio. It’s very active in terms of the PCS moving around,” Serrano says, referring to the military acronym that stands for “permanent change of station.”
