The heart of North East

North East San Antonio is one of the city’s most fashionable, in-demand, and picturesque neighborhoods, and Thousand Oaks sits at the heart of this suburban paradise. From the forested walking paths of McAllister Park to the half-dozen major shopping centers scattered throughout this prestigious expanse, Thousand Oaks and the surrounding area offer near-limitless opportunities for entertainment, shopping, and the best of San Antonio living.

The Oaks of Thousand Oaks

Realtor Cathy Tate of eXp Realty says of Thousand Oaks, “It’s one of the top suburbs in the San Antonio area. It offers a unique blend of community spirit and smalltown charm and is one of the best places to live in Texas.” Thousand Oaks and its nearby communities owe their origins to San Antonio’s suburbanization at the end of the 20th century. Communities like Preston Hollow are full of homes dating to the 1980s, while Steubing Ranch’s housing scene proliferated in the 1990s; Thousand Oaks Drive itself is lined with ranch-style homes built in the 2000s. These recently built homes are mostly ranch-style residences or bungalows, reflecting a regional preference for single-story homes. Homes in the area sell for between $200,000 and $450,000, offering prices both below and above the city average, and reflecting the diversity of housing styles and subdivisions within the Thousand Oaks area. Tate says, “Many of the neighborhoods are characterized by tree-lined streets and an abundance of oak trees that provide shade and scenic landscape.” Just as a warren of streets links disparate subdivisions into a larger community, neighborhood associations bring residents together. Tate says, “Residents take great pride in their community and are actively involved in various community organizations and events, with the HOA playing a pivotal role in organizing community activities. This makes for a very close-knit and supportive community that many find appealing.”

Big-box stores and Sichuan-style noodles

Thousand Oaks’ abundance of major shopping malls is just as appealing as this community’s tight-knit nature. The popular H-E-B supermarket can be found at many of these outlets, as can chain and local restaurants, a Regal movie theatre, and big-box stores like Walmart and Costco. One local favorite, at the heart of Thousand Oaks, is the Dashi Chinese Kitchen + Bar, where gourmands can enjoy Sichuan-style meat, noodle, and vegetable dishes within a colorful, thematic atmosphere that takes visitors on a cultural and culinary adventure.
