About Universal City

Universal City is a northeast San Antonio-area city closely associated with Randolph Air Force Base. The earliest portion of the community was platted in 1931, and the military presence has shaped its growth ever since. Universal City has local schools and private K-12 options such as First Baptist Academy, with Northeast Lakeview College nearby. It feels like a practical military-adjacent suburb: residential neighborhoods, service businesses, commuters, and strong ties to the broader San Antonio and Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City corridor.
