MEDICAL CENTER & WOODLAWN SAN ANTONIO

The Medical Center neighborhood is anchored by the South Texas Medical Center that comprises 75 different facilities and is responsible for the second-largest number of jobs in the city. Surrounding the hospitals and offices, you’ll find tons of residential options, a growing culinary scene, hidden entertainment gems, and a handful of parks throughout the area.

TO DO IN THE MEDICAL CENTER

Living in Med Center puts you within an easy commute to a variety of activities and San Antonio hot spots. The best shopping in the city is a 15-minute straight shot down I-10 to The Rim and The Shops at La Cantera, and you’ll never be more than a few minutes from Texas’ favorite grocer, H-E-B.

When it comes to food, the Med Center has plenty of gems to choose from. Merit Coffee Co has your morning cup covered, you can’t beat the brunch + mimosa flights at Sangria On The Burg, and all of your ramen cravings can be met at Suck It: The Restaurant.

Along with a number of jogging trails throughout the neighborhood, you’re right next to the walking trails, fishing spots, fitness classes, and public swimming pool at Woodlawn Lake Park.
