Overview of The Waterford at Thousand Oaks

The Waterford at Thousand Oaks sits at 4243 Thousand Oaks Dr in San Antonio’s San Antonio International Airport Vicinity neighborhood, a single-story independent living and respite care community. The address puts Northeast Baptist Hospital about 2.59 miles out.

Floor plans run studio to two-bedroom. Studios come in at 343 square feet; one-bedrooms land between 480 and 600 square feet; two-bedrooms reach 844. That’s a meaningful size range for a residential independent living setting, and it gives prospective residents room to calibrate based on how much space they actually need. Pets are allowed. Transportation services and fitness and recreation programming are available on-site.

The Walk Score is 65, which puts the neighborhood in moderately walkable territory. Some errands work on foot; most will use a car or the community’s own transportation. The surrounding area has a mix of nearby amenities, which is reasonable for a San Antonio neighborhood adjacent to the airport corridor.

This is a non-CMS-certified community, consistent with its independent living classification. No skilled nursing, Medicare, or Medicaid services are in scope here.

Independent living with respite availability, three unit sizes spanning 343 to 844 square feet, a pet-friendly policy, and a location with hospital access less than three miles away: that’s the practical summary of what this community offers.
