"I live right outside the city limits, but am a 15/20 minute drive from downtown seguin. 123 can get congested during morning and after work/school traffic, but that's everywhere. It's very easy to navigate throughout seguin. "

"nothing. no one cleans after theirs, its always loud with screaming kids and partying teenagers from college. "

"I live here and work at home. I commute to Seguin, San Marcos, New Braunfels, and San Antonio on occasion...all within 20 minutes to an hour. Red Road is a fantastic neighborhood...the kind that is all too rare these days. All the people are down-home friendly, we all help each other out like old time neighbors did 50-60 years ago. LOTS and LOTS of peace and quiet, wildlife, seclusion. If you are addicted to traffic, noise, close social networking, constant stimulation, and mall-hopping this is not your kind of place. If you love nature and want to escape the stress and hassle of big city/urgan sprawl life...BINGO!!! Biggest issue with getting back and forth to Seguin is being careful to miss the deer...we are loaded with them. But learning to enjoy going slower is just part of the charm of this place. There are very few niches like this left where you can build whatever kind of home you like, have plenty of elbow room, and be right smack in the middle of a virgin forest with rolling hills and few roads. I've seen deer, turkeys, hogs, foxes, bobcats, coyotes, and usually get serenaded by great horned owls or whipporwills at night. You can clearly see the Milky Way on clear nights, along with a zillion stars. The Guadalupe River is only about ten miles north, Starcke Park is only 20 minutes and excellent with a huge playground, golf course, tennis and basketball courts, lots of tables right beside the river, fishing permitted, and a Wave Pool for those hot summer dog days. Seguin is not a cultural hot spot, but I've come to appreciate its quaint, humble style and off-the-beaten path feel. Schools are not the highest rating wise, but they offer a more personalized atmosphere and smaller classes. The only real drawback to Red Road and the Capote Hills in general is the isolation when you do need to make a trip to the city for whatever reason. But I've always found living here to more than make up for it."
