Set along US 87 on the eastern edge of Bexar County and into Wilson County, this community attracts those who want acreage, starry nights, and a quick commute via Loop 1604 and I‑10. Weekends often mean casting a line or launching a boat at Braunig Lake, a favorite for redfish and catfish with year-round access through Texas Parks and Wildlife’s resources, including the official guide to Braunig Lake. Local flavor runs deep, from classic barbecue joints and roadside produce stands to seasonal markets in nearby La Vernia.
