Buying a Home in Kendall County
Boerne and Comfort
Boerne is the county seat and primary real estate market, with a walkable Main Street, strong schools, and a range of housing from historic cottages to gated Hill Country estates. Comfort is smaller and more rural, 15 minutes northwest of Boerne, with an arts community and lower price points. Both communities attract San Antonio commuters and retirees.
Price premium
Kendall County median home prices run above the San Antonio metro median. The premium reflects Hill Country topography, larger lots, lower density, and the desirability of Boerne ISD schools. Buyers should expect to pay more per square foot than comparable construction in suburban Bexar County. The trade-off is setting, lot size, and quality of life.
Commute to San Antonio
Boerne to downtown San Antonio is approximately 30 miles via I-10, typically 30 to 45 minutes. The north San Antonio medical and business corridors along Highway 281 are closer, roughly 20 to 30 minutes from Boerne. The commute is manageable but I-10 congestion at the Loop 1604 interchange can add time during peak hours.
Water and wells
Much of Kendall County relies on well water rather than municipal supply, especially outside Boerne city limits. Water availability and well depth vary significantly by location. Properties on the Edwards Aquifer may have permitting restrictions. Test any well for flow rate and water quality before closing and confirm long-term water supply adequacy.
Commute times reflect typical non-peak estimates. Water and well information should be verified per property. Tax rates per Kendall County Appraisal District.

Kendall County FAQs
Is Boerne a good place to live near San Antonio?
Boerne consistently ranks among the most desirable small towns in the San Antonio metro. Strong schools, a walkable Main Street, Hill Country setting, and a 30-minute I-10 commute to San Antonio make it popular with families, retirees, and remote workers. The trade-off is higher home prices than suburban Bexar County.
How much do homes cost in Kendall County?
Prices range from the mid $200s for older homes and smaller lots to $1M+ for custom Hill Country estates. The median is above the San Antonio metro average. Boerne proper commands higher prices than outlying areas. Compare specific neighborhoods rather than relying on county-level medians.
