Cibolo (pop 32,350) is located in Guadalupe County, separated from Bexar County by Cibolo Creek. It takes its name from the Spanish word for buffalo.
A post office called Cibolo opened in 1883 along the right-of-way of the Galveston, Harrisburg and San Antonio Railway. In 1904, the only Cibolo Valley school had one teacher and 31 students. Today, the Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City School District has 15,653 students.
Incorporated in 1968 with a population of 398, the city owes its growth to Randolph Air Force Base and its proximity to San Antonio.
