The Community

Highland Ridge is one of those neighborhoods that just feels put-together. The HOA keeps common areas looking sharp, and kids are zoned to New Braunfels ISD, which has a solid reputation in the area. You’re also just minutes from more than 40 local parks, local-favorite Fischer Park among them, so green space and trails are never far from home.

The Location

Where Highland Ridge sits might be its best feature. You’re right on I-35, so getting to San Antonio or Austin for work (or just a weekend trip) is easy. And New Braunfels itself has plenty going on: float down the Comal or Guadalupe River, catch a show at Gruene Hall, spend a day cooling off at Schlitterbahn, or head underground at Natural Bridge Caverns. Grab an authentic German pastry at Naeglin’s Bakery while you’re at it, and don’t miss Wurstfest every fall since it’s one of Texas’s favorite traditions. If you want small-town charm without giving up big-city access, it’s tough to beat this part of the I-35 corridor.
