Castle Hills (pop 4,480) straddles NW Loop 410, a 2 ½ square mile city, incorporated in 1951. First populated by GIs returning from WW II, it’s residents wanted to maintain the slow pace and beauty of an unhurried time, a city removed from the approaches of its large neighbor to the south, San Antonio, which today surrounds it. In fact, a majority of the 1,550 or so homes still standing today were built in the 1950s and ‘60s.
Children attend North East Independent School District schools.
