Cibolo for a longer morning on FM78
Cibolo City Hall is 4.4 miles from Randolph's main gate, the whole way on FM78 west, typically 8 to 14 minutes at 7:00 a.m. on a Monday. That is the longest of the four measured mornings, and it sits with the higher of the two Guadalupe certified means. The county on the label is Guadalupe. The city may also touch Bexar, so the parcel still has to be checked.

Higher than Schertz, and still not a sale price
Cibolo's Category A mean is higher than the Guadalupe portion published for Schertz. Both come from Supplement 28 of the same certified-totals report, ARB Approved Totals dated September 29, 2026. A mean is the category's market value divided by its count. It is not a median. A private party's sale price is excepted from disclosure under Texas Government Code §552.149, so the box is an appraisal mean, not a sold-price band.
The three allowance rows are the same grades a Schertz reader sees, because both ZIPs, 78108 and 78154, map to TX285, and so do the four JBSA duty ZIPs. BAH follows the duty station. Living in Cibolo does not set a separate rate. What changes on this page is the morning: more miles on FM78, and the higher Guadalupe mean beside the same monthly allowance.

Guadalupe, with a Bexar edge to confirm
City Hall at 200 South Main Street is in Guadalupe County, and the certified totals above are Guadalupe totals. Cibolo may also touch Bexar. Schertz is the city already described as both counties, and its mean is labeled Guadalupe portion only so the two counties are not added together. Cibolo's mean does not carry that split label. The possible touch is a reason to confirm the parcel, not a second number to fold in. Students attend schools where they reside. Worksheet 094-902 names Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City ISD for Cibolo, the same district name as Schertz. Confirm the campus by address if the house might sit toward that Bexar edge.

Eight minutes still lands on a 24/7 gate
A 7:00 a.m. start that takes 8 to 14 minutes is aimed at Lindsey, which is open 24/7, not at East Gate's inbound window of 6 to 8 a.m. weekdays. West Gate is inbound until 2 p.m. and outbound until 6 p.m. South Gate / Commercial is 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays. On federal holidays, AETC Resiliency Days, and 502d Air Base Wing Readiness Days, East, West, South, and Lindsey VCC close. Lindsey Gate stays on normal hours. Without a CAC, an ID or privilege card, or a locally issued DBIDS pass, the door is a Visitor Control Center. Lindsey VCC is 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. on ordinary weekdays. Criminal background checks are conducted on everyone requesting access.

Who it suits
Cibolo suits a Randolph report that can spend the extra minutes on FM78 and is looking at the higher Guadalupe mean, with City Hall in 78108 as the reference. It suits a household that wants the shared district name and will still confirm the campus where the city may touch Bexar. It is a weak fit for a Lackland, Fort Sam Houston, or Camp Bullis gate, for someone who needs the shortest of these four mornings, and for someone who wants the lower Guadalupe mean. That lower figure is the Schertz portion.
Nearby alternatives
- Schertz is the lower Guadalupe mean and a 2.6-mile drive, in a city that is already both Guadalupe and Bexar.
- Universal City is the closest city-hall origin and calls itself the gateway to Randolph. Two districts serve it.
- Converse uses FM78 from the east, 2.8 miles and 6 to 12 minutes, with school and value confirmed by address.
