Proximity to parks, schools and restaurants
The quiet residential community of El Chaparral has “gotten overshadowed due to the suburbs north of Loop 1604, but its time will come because it’s a great location,” says Cesar Amezcua, Broker and Owner at CA & Company, and one of the Top 50 Residential Real Estate Agents recognized by the San Antonio Business Journal. Here in San Antonio, “Easy access to Interstate 35 was huge before the I-35 corridor and other suburbs exploded,” says Amezcua. Today, the I-35 is still the main artery in and out of the city. Residents can drive 15 miles to explore downtown San Antonio or stick around El Chaparral and enjoy its proximity to parks, schools and restaurants.
Ranch-style homes are common
The wide streets of El Chaparral are lined with sidewalks, driveways and one to two-story brick homes. Ranch-style houses are common, some with Colonial Revival influence.

Visit the theme park at Morgan's Wonderland
There are several special places that bring the community together in El Chaparral. “The heart and soul of the area is Morgan’s Wonderland,” says Amezcua. “One of our city’s millionaires, Gordon Hartman, dedicated his life to philanthropy and built his daughter with special needs a theme park, which is open to the community.” Morgan’s Wonderland is one of the few theme parks in the world that caters to children and adults with special needs.
