ATTN: Southsiders !!

[ObiwanGinobili]

Hello all SA Southsiders!
I will be joingin your ranks at the end of my current lease (1yr and 4 months to go). :spin But in the meantime I need to do some advance research.

I know NOTHING about the southside. I don;t even know the names of areas/neighborhoods/subdivisions or where they are located. :oops
I don;t know what school systems ther eare or what areas they encompass.
I don;t know what areas are nice to live in and waht areas we should avoid.
Shopping? Living? .... everythign basicly!

So help a sister out and give me the 411!! :angel

Tell me all about your little section of Southside San Antonio! Do you like it? Hows the schools? good parks? Places to eat? etc etc etc.

Especially the neighborhoods... what are thier names? where are they? which ones are good which ones are bad??


Thanks sooooo much in advance!! :princess
Emo and I are plannign on renting a house for 2 or 3 years untill we get more familiar with the area and then buy.

He's working at toyota so any area you can recomend that has ashort driving to S. Zarzamora or HWY 16 would be great! :tu

[mookie2001]

the grass is greener

[Trainwreck2100]

waht areas we should avoid.

All of them

[spurjur]

The South Side isn't that bad as people think it is. I think its more family oriented because people who are there have been there for a long time. There are a lot of good restaurants. A lot of holes in the wall that serve good food. The school districts consisit of Harlandale, South San, and Southside. Southwest ISD is another one.

The one neighborhood I would avoid is Indian Creek off of Old Pearsall Rd. I really don't know the names of neighborhoods there. I know there are some new sub-divisions going up because of Toyota.

[Trainwreck2100]

The South Side isn't that bad as people think it is.

Oh really? Let's see when I was 8 I got my ass kicked by someone two sizes bigger than me and this was at a park. And the counselors there didn't do anything about it. Just recently my car got stolen, a guy got shot down the street and a sex offender lives two houses down.

FUCK THE SOUTHSIDE :pctoss

[ObiwanGinobili]

well I live in the medical center and a sex offender lives rihgt below my apatment on the ground floor.

we are definatly moving southside.
emo is from a small town and is used to it only taking 5-10 min.s to get to work.
right now he's going pshyco with this 35 min. drive.

[midgetonadonkey]

I live near Highlands High School and it is a nice area. I come from a small town and was fearful of the Southside at first, but it really isn't bad. I have never heard gun shots. My house or car have never been broken into. Anyone who doesn't like the Southside can go fuck themselves.

[ObiwanGinobili]

so where is highlands high school? and whats the name of the area?
thanks?

[midgetonadonkey]

My neighborhood is off of Steves and Clark. Highlands High is a couple of blocks past Clark. I think they call the area Highland Hills.

[IceColdBrewski]

This is the first time I've ever heard of someone looking to move into the southside, instead of out of it.

Well, if it's because of the driving time, southside is definitely the place. Because after his car gets stolen, he'll be able to let the VIA bus driver do all the driving.

the closet the via bus gets to toyota is South San hospitol.

Obi,

Spurjur has given you the real info about the southside. Please stay away from the Indian Creek area, they kill you for free out there.
My parents have lived off of SW Military drive and Logwood (a few blocks from South Park Mall) for 20 years with no problems what so ever. Since your hubby is working for Toyota, then I recommend an apartment or house around the South Park Mall area, It's right off of IH35. That way he can get to work by taking 35 then Hwy 16 and you can shop till you drop at the mall. :elephant

[Old School Chic]

FUCK THE SOUTHSIDE :pctoss

You deserve a good kick in the ass for talking shit about the southside. :lol

[spurjur]

Obi. I'm sure you know as well as everyone who is part of Spurstalk, that crime is everywhere. North, West, East, and South. I am not saying that you will not be a victim of crime if you move down to the South Side, but I was raised on the South Side off of Logwood and Aaron. I lived there for about 15 years and never heard any gun shots. I never had anything stolen and never got beat up like some wuss stated earlier. I never felt threatened nor scared when I lived there.

I now live right off of 1604 between Highway 16 and I-35. It is still the South part of town, but not considered San Antonio. I have lots of friends who live in the South Side and I don't recall any of them having any problems with crime. Just avoid the Indian Creek area. Try to avoid that whole area near Old Pearsall Rd such as Five Palms and Old Sky Harbor. I am not labeling all the people who live there as bad, but there is a lot of crime there.

[spurjur]

Another thing to consider is that the South East part of town is really growing. I haven't been over to that side in a while, but heard its a lot different than before. I'm talking about the area where Brooks Air Force Base use to be.

[Old School Chic]

I never had anything stolen and never got beat up like some wuss stated earlier.

:lol

[Mixability]

My neighborhood is off of Steves and Clark. Highlands High is a couple of blocks past Clark. I think they call the area Highland Hills.

Isn't that considered Southeast?

I almost forgot about the Brooks Air Force Base Area. It Is really nice out there.
So many new places to shop and eat! :elephant

The Southside is kicking some ass!

[ObiwanGinobili]

Spurjur
I <3 you!!
Thanks so much!!

[spurjur]

Highlands is considered South East. I heard that there are going to be some homes developed near Toyota in the near future starting around the $180K. That is unheard of on the South Side.

[Taco]

Obi. I'm sure you know as well as everyone who is part of Spurstalk, that crime is everywhere. North, West, East, and South. .

Yep.

It just depends on where you are, look up crime statistics in certain areas and see what looks good for you.
Drive around look at the housing, in the area's where the house are neat and the yards are well maintained are usually pretty safe but then you go a few blocks away and your right back into a bad area.

Good luck,

I hope you find a nice area.

[Das Texan]

Isn't that considered Southeast?

it is and toyota is more southwest.

[ObiwanGinobili]

southeast info is fine too.

i should clairfy that when I say "southside" i am thinking southcentral, southwest and southeast.

thanks all!

That's stupid and I have no idea how Cisneros conned the Toyota guys into it

[Mixability]

I call Military Drive "Little Mexico".

Whether you need a pit bull, fruit, cell phone accessories, or your windshield fixed.........

You can find it in "Little Mexico".

:lol

haha! my Popo (abuelo) lives in "little mexico" in Port Lavaca... but you can;t really go visit him there because he lives in a brothel that his brother runs. (i'm not taking my kids to a place wher you can buy a 16yo old for 50 bucks)
so he has to come visit us. which he never does becasue as great as his sparkly grape purple 1996 S-10 with the airbrushed fighting cocks across the hood looks - it doen't run.

[spurjur]

Another thing Obi. I have lived in the medical area too. I lived there for about 4 years and lived another few years in the airport area. I find the people in the South Side more approachable and more friendly. I see them as more humble I guess. Before anyone gets all mad. I am not saying that only South Siders are friendly. Just talking from my experience.

[Mixability]

addendum: Southwest Military has candy apples for sale at every intersection.

:lol

[ObiwanGinobili]

That's stupid and I have no idea how Cisneros conned the Toyota guys into it


they are also building a huge new shopping center on Applewhite road a few blocks norht of the plant. a gym, target, all that kinda stuff is sopposed to go in there.

Having been someone that's moved from the North to Southside, It sucks. The only theatre out here is the crappy ass Mayan that all the little Jr. High School kids go to cause they don't have anywhere else to go. They don't even fund a full concession staff. But hey we got a bookstore now, la dee fricken da.

Let me just throw something out, when I live north I could run at ten at night, would you do that on the southside.

[spurjur]

they are also building a huge new shopping center on Applewhite road a few blocks norht of the plant. a gym, target, all that kinda stuff is sopposed to go in there.

Don't know if you'd be interested, but there is a very nice sub-division off of 1604 and something (near Applewhitte) named Savanah Heights that is very nice. Its more country living though.

[Trainwreck2100]

But should that almost tripple property value?

it's funny - the place that I find the friendliest most open people? are on the bus. :lol

VIA! we're going places!

[Das Texan]

if you havent been to the southside in the last few years then you wont recognize it.

there are a number of nice areas on the southside, the highland hills area is nice, there are a couple of areas off ww white that are nice (dont know their names though), and they are building up more and more types of complexes all the time with housing all up and down military.

and i still love all the old stereotypes, good stuff.

That I agree with, but i think that's more of a racial thing. Mexicans are just more friendly. San Antonio mexicans not them rich mexicans from Mexico that only come here on holidays, most of them are jerks.

I'd actually be interested in something like that to buy.
Emo grew up out in the middle of nowhere with acerage and horses.
not that I'm saying I want acerage & horses... but space between myself and my neighbors and littel ot no traffic would be nice.
Definatly make Emo feel comfortable.

wiht 2 children under the age of 2 and a husband and household to run i'm ready to go to bed at 8:30. there's no 10pm running for me.
and I wouldn;t run at 10 in any neighborhood. (being a woman I feel thats just not smart). Besides... if I was awake at 10pm I'd rather be fucking. :fro

[Trainwreck2100]

in mine i would.

Well in mine there's dog a mission, the site of a murder, and a "recording studio" that only has people at nite. I'm not saying the southside is Detroit or anything cause it's not that bad.

Wow! I finally agree with Trainwreck2100 on something.
Yep, those so called rich mexicans who only come to SA on holidays are fucking hateful MOFO's. (not all of them, but 98% of them are) :rolleyes

The thing about them, is they're rich, and they are always trying to get things on the cheap. (I love correcting them though) Then they think your managers are gonna take their side. When the managers feel just the same way about them you do.

I've "recorded albums" there.

Thanks for that midge :tu

Obi, I live minutes away from midge and like him I've never had any real problems in my neighborhood. I went to Highlands high school and it wasn't too bad but I wouldn't recommend it. I have no idea how the school system is now so that is something you need to look into.

[Old School Chic]

How about???? Club Image?

I went there a couple of times. I remember jamming down to The Cover Girls & Expose when they went in concert there. :spin

If I could turn back time :depressed

[SequSpur]

Southside!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ZStomp]

I was born and raised in the SouthSide. And I love it.

When I'm ready to purchase a home, chances are I will end up in the South Side again.

As for how bad it is- of course you have some crime- but JUST LIKE EVERY PART OF TOWN.

For those of you that know where (SAPD) I work- the southside is the slowest part of town.

Southside :tu

[Kori Ellis]

ObiWan - I don't know anything about the Southside, but I would guess with your kids being young that the most important thing to you would be safety and schools. So hopefully someone here with pre-school/elementary age children can give you an idea of what's the best area as far as schools go.

Good luck.

We're from the Southside. I can't say I grew up on the Southside because dipshits like Solid D and Exstatic and Ferris Wheelin Tpark will crack stupid ass jokes...

I lived on Zarzamora behind South Park Mall. It was okay, there is also a nice new neighborhood going up around Mission Del Lago golf course...

and the luxury of the La Familia Shops....

My fiancee dragged me to the southside about 2 years ago, and I won't live anywhere else ever again.

I love it here.

As a non-hispanic white male, you just have to know where to go and not to go.

I've only been in an "altercation" twice, and came out of both very well.

[Kori Ellis]

Kori isn't allowed south of Hildebrand unless she's going to a Spurs game.

That's not true. I was allowed to go to GTG's at Alamo Drafthouse :) Isn't that Southwest??

As for Obi,

The Southside is a different experience from the north side.

It's a different world, a slower world. A better world? That's up to the person.

I grew up on the southeast side, down the street from Highlands. Just like Midget. This area is actually called Sunny Slope not Highland Hills.

In my parents neighborhood every single lot that was empty as I grew up now has a home on it.

On Fair Ave. just before Clark Ave. there was a large (I mean large) lot that remained empty my entire life, then about 2 years ago, housing was planned for it. There are now 13-15 new (very nice) homes on said piece of land.

I not sure on the exact number of homes, I only see them on passing when I visit my parents. Midget may have a better number.

Also, at the intersection of Clark Ave. and Rigsby Ave. they are building a new apartment complex where once nothing stood.

As for the Southside and Southwest side. I can't speak too much on them as I really don't know those areas from a deep experience POV, but I do know these areas.

My uncle who works for the city and lives close to the Republic of Texas Golf Course on Military Dr. loves it.

Also, the development in that area where my uncle lives is insane for Southside standards.

A new elementary school (Highland Forest) was recently built off of Military Dr. near the golf course as well as a very large subdivision around the school.

It's a very large subdivision with many more subdivisions (per my uncle) planned for that area.

Also, the recent revitalization of the Goliad and Military intersection is just unbelievable.

It went from just a HEB, Hollywood Video, Whataburger, Diamond Shamrock (now Valero), Burger King, and a bunch of abandonded buildings to... well, something pretty damn impressive for Southside standards.

Target, Best Buy, Office Depot, Gold's Gym, Chili's, Home Depot, Conn's, Petco, Kirkland's, WalMart, Sam's Club, a new movie theater, two Starbucks across the street from one another, a new Walgreens where the Burger King used to be, no more abandonded buildings, and much more.

I consider that area part of the southeast side.

As for the Southside, I know much of it via Military Dr. It's an amazing drive with all the retail that you would never see on the north side. Nothing but small, mom and pop type stores, it's a wonderful site.

I recently drove 410 and then drove near the Toyota plant, it was def. something new for me. It was probably the 4th time I had driven in that area (410 on the south side) in my entire life, so I remember it very vaguely.

However, I was surprised (well, not really) at all the new development. A shopping center here, a new subdivision there, apartments over yonder.

Nice.

As for the Southwest side, that I have the least experience with. However, I do know you can get a pretty nice 3 bedroom home for 60,000 dollars on the Southwest side.

And yes, I have pictures coming.

My friend who grew up on the southeast side and went to high school with me, moved to the northwest side before me, and a couple of weeks in his new apartment, his ninja was stolen.

:lol

I guess Ninja bikes aren't in demand on the southside.

[Buddy Holly]

Oh yeah Obi, my recommendation to you is the subdivision on Military Dr. between Highland Forest Elementary (East Central Independent School District) and the Republic of Texas golf course.

I know a few hurricane evacuees moved into the homes because that subdivision was so well recommended.

It's very close to 37 with a quick 1 minute drive on 37 to 410.

[Silver21_Black20]

Lock your doors...get some burglar bars...don't make eye contact...you'll be fine...

What? Your kidding right?

I don't see how posters are making the Southside seem uninhabitable.

[The sone]

look...me and zstomp grew up there. we used to walk down the street at two or three in the a.m. nothing ever happened to us. nothing too extreme anyway. and any crap that did go down just made us stronger, as friends and as people! im not gonna say there is no bad. bad is all over the place. kindda like looter, but honestly, i miss it. its a culture, and those who have lived there can understand what i am talking about. different isnt bad unless you refuse to adapt. its always those idiots that try to swim "up-stream" that are making negative comments about something theyve never been a part of!! i KNOW youll like it!

[CubanMustGo]

its amazing what is going on in the southeast/southside. I love it. My parents live on the southeast side of town and my father and I are absolutley amazed at what is going on in that part of town......I am trying to persuade my wife to move back there or even go further to Floersville or Pleasenton. I love the southside and feel proud to have grown up there.

VIVA LA RASA.



it funny how my wife and others still pigeonhole the southside without ever really investigating what is happening there right now.


Exactly. I grew up on the Southeast Side. Went to Highlands. Despite the supposed "crappy" education got a full ride to Trinity. My mom will be 85 years old this year, still lives in the 1200 s.f. house we all grew up in, and in the 45 years she has lived there the only thing that has happened was her purse got stolen 20-plus years ago, when we left the back door unlocked. But it's easier for ignoramuses from the more affluent parts of town to go hatin' on the Southside than to actually find out what goes on there. Now there's finally some new development, thanks to the Brooks City Base project and of course Toyota people needing nice places to live and to shop. About damned time.

If I could find a job in SA that paid halfway decent, we'd move back there in a heartbeat. We live in Collin County now, the most affluent county in the state, and the people here are so much into the "drive a bigger, more expensive SUV than the guy next door" bit that it's not even funny. Talk about arrogant - they make even Northsiders seem reasonable. :lol

[Silver21_Black20]

The last three posters are giving the Southside/Southeast side some justice...

Thanks guys!

[ObiwanGinobili]

Buddy Holly you are da man!!

Thanks !! :tu :tu

[Mrs.Tlong]

My honey tlong likes to mosey on down to the "southside" on occasion.
With occasion meaning every other night.

[gameFACE]

The newer southside developments are different from the older southside. It depends on what type of housing you're looking for. There are new subdivisions and apartment complexes going up near 410. But the older southside is basically between 410S and Hwy 90/I10.

I grew up in the Palm Heights area at Nogalitos and Malone/Theo (southcentral). I currently (although temporarily) live near that neighborhood, And although i'm looking at moving downtown who knows I might stick around! But that's an older neighborhood.

The newer southside deveolopments have the opportunity to give that part of the city more of an identity than the standard northside suburbia. I hope it's planned well. I also hope A&M gets built. It's too bad that Taco Hut isn't around anymore (southeast)


A new elementary school was recently built off of Military near the golf course as well as a very large subdivision around the school.
Is that the one that was designed by Alamo Architects? If it is that is still in SAISD. The new developments are in other districts but I don't know which ones. Regardless the new housing will have a higher tax base from which to build new schools.

Shit dude - ther might even be The Shops at Mitchell Lake!

Oh yeah, and Palm Heights>Alamo Heights vatos!

Highland Forest is an ECISD (East Central Independent School District) school.

I always thought a Mills Mall somewhere on the far soutside bewteen 410 and 1604 would be perfect.

South San Mills or something.

[Buddy Holly]

Obi, no problem.

Just to help you out a little more.

Here's a general feel of the area I recommended.

This google earth image is about a year to a year and a half old.

http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a396/insidethe210/subdivision.png

I'd estimate that 80-85% of the subdivison is complete.

[Buddy Holly]

Sadly, south side growth looks to soon kill a San Antonio urban legend king.

[fraga]

Man..."you" people are so touchy...didn't even mention specifically the southside...but yet you all assume I was talking about it...how funny....

[Trainwreck2100]

My friend who grew up on the southeast side and went to high school with me, moved to the northwest side before me, and a couple of weeks in his new apartment, his ninja was stolen.

:lol

I guess Ninja bikes aren't in demand on the southside.

That's cause it's like Halloween, just like eveyone goes to the northside to get candy, so too does everyone go to the northside to steal shit. Because they might steal from the wrong person si'mon start a gang war.

[TheTruth]

i don't know what it is called, but there is a nice subdivision on zarzamora that is only a few years old. it is like a minute from loop 410 and only a few more minutes from toyota.

[ZStomp]

The one I was referring to is off of South Presa where the Mission Creek subdivision is being built. I'm not sure what the name is but It might still be in the final construction drawing phase. Good to see ECISD's new school.

Have you decided on an area? South, Southeast, Southwest, South Central, Far South Central... etc.

[spurjur]

No I know this was said with tongue firmly planted in cheek but just in case... are you freakin' serious?!

I was kidding. It is well known by most South Siders and if you were to ask anyone if they knew where "Caca Lake" was, who did not grow up near the South Side, they would look at you very funny. Its an inside joke though among South Siders.

I think we'll decide once we've driven around there a bit. thats when we'll start crossing areas off the list. right now southeast and the are a south of lackland on the southwest are looking pretty nice.

[Buddy Holly]

Good choice! The commute to Toyota will be a breeze from either location.

Feel bad for the one guy I read about in an article that moved here from Michigan after being hired by Toyota.

Dude bought a home north of 1604 on the far north side. His commute is gonna suck ass.

[spurjur]

Obi, here is link to a home for sale in that Savannah Heights sub-division I was telling you about. Its very nice and very close to Toyota.

Its not that far from Toyota and not far of a drive from the South Side of San Antonio.

[ObiwanGinobili]

dear lord that house is big!
I don't think I could clean that in 1 day with 2 kids.:lol

I have a one day rule. hehehe.

[Buddy Holly]

Its not that far from Toyota and not far of a drive from the South Side of San Antonio.


No, not at all, but it is def. "far" for southside development standards.

In terms of distance from the downtown core, this would be the equilant to building a subdivision across from the Dominion on the far northwest side or just north of Stone Oak on the far north side.

But the homes they're building out in those areas don't seem "out of place" or "weird."

But it's about time the south side got some of its own. :smokin

[Trainwreck2100]

$200000 who the fuck would buy that.

[spurjur]

I wasn't saying that Obi buy that particular house. I was wanting her to get an idea of the sub-division. Geez.

[Buddy Holly]

spurjur, actually, the listing says its in Von Ormy which is a good 5 miles northwest of the map listing.

[Buddy Holly]

$200000 who the fuck would buy that.

Someone that wanted a house you dumbfuck.

Dude, do you just like to hear your own voice? :blah

Or wait, the sounds of your fingers typing on a keyboard.

[Trainwreck2100]

For 200,000 bucks someone could buy a house in a more established side of town.

[spurjur]

spurjur, actually, the listing says its in Von Ormy which is a good 5 miles northwest of the map listing.

Von Ormy is not that far from Hwy 16, which is where Toyota is located. Right? I may be wrong.

[Buddy Holly]

For 200,000 bucks someone could buy a house in a more established side of town.

What the fuck is the difference? It's a home, a large home that provides shelter.

In a "more established sid eof town" that same house would run about another $100,000.

[Buddy Holly]

Von Ormy is not that far from Hwy 16, which is where Toyota is located. Right? I may be wrong.

No, the map they link to shows a different site location.

oh, and junior went back in for violation of his prob. , but got out again after turnign states... then the case "fell apart" and he didn't have to testify but still gets to stay out.
lets just sya there are alot of peopel on hubby's side of the family who don;t need real jobs. Thats one of the reasons we live here - away from their particular area. And one of the reasons why we don't travel to Mexico. ever.

Alright, there's a party at one of my neighbors house, how do I know you ask. Is is because they are parked in front of my house, they are not. Is it cause I got an invitation, I did not. Is it because I can here the music, right now..DING DING DING.

i am having two words to be making you come to the southside.....TAQUERIA MEXICO!!

[Das Texan]

As for Obi,

The Southside is a different experience from the north side.

It's a different world, a slower world. A better world? That's up to the person.

I grew up on the southeast side, down the street from Highlands. Just like Midget. This area is actually called Sunny Slope not Highland Hills.




Good dig. And the area I live in is called Highland Hills. I should know, I have gone to meetings for the Highland Hills Neighborhood Association. Those homes Buddy talked about I believe are being done by Cisneros' group and they are pricey.

if I was living down there and had a big pot of chowda... you'd come.

[Mixability]

one thing to watch out for on the Southside is the dumb idiot dressed in fatigues running with a US flag in his hand

GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET! :pctoss

Especially on the Roosevelt and Military Intersection.

:lol

[gameFACE]

Its an inside joke though among South Siders.

It is? I'm a south sider (haven't been for a couple of years) and I never once heard about "Caca Lake."

Damn, Buddy/Writer. With all the Mr. San Antonio info you have I can't believe you don't know about "Caca Lake". Time to get the history book out......
I was kind of (inside) joking with my "Shops at Caca Lake" but yes, the lake is quite nice these days. Still I won't be taking a dip in it for another century or so.

Does anyone know if Grif's Hamburgers is still on Pleasington?

[fraga]

Why yes...yes it is...along with Rolando's going strong right behind it...

[George W Bush]

Looky here my fellow Americans, we need to put a fence all along the entire southside to keep them mexicans out.

God Bless America :tu
