Straight-line distance to the nearest H-E-B store. Each starting rent is from our daily rent update.

Half a mile is the line where a weekly shop stays walkable. Past a mile, most people drive it whatever the map says, so treat anything beyond that as a car errand rather than a walk.

The rest of the walk

A store is one errand out of several

Groceries are the errand that decides whether a car is optional, but they are not the only one. The pharmacy, the laundromat and a bus stop that runs on a useful schedule all matter to the same renter, and none of them travel together in New Braunfels.

If you are trying to live here without a car, tell us and we will check the whole set for a shortlist rather than just the one you can measure on a map.

Every community within a mile and a half of a store (40)

The full roster behind the numbers above.

Questions renters actually ask

How is the distance measured?+

In a straight line, from where the community sits on our map to the closest H-E-B on it. On foot it is always farther, and by how much comes down to whether you can cross where you need to.

Can I actually live here without a car?+

Within half a mile of a store, yes, for groceries at least. 6 of the communities we track sit inside that radius. Beyond a mile, carrying a week of groceries stops being realistic and you are relying on a bus, a bike with panniers, or delivery.

Do you track other grocery stores?+

We track full-line grocery stores, which in New Braunfels means H-E-B. Convenience stores and specialty shops are not counted. They do not solve the weekly shop.

Does living near a store cost more in rent?+

Not reliably in New Braunfels. The stores here sit near the main roads rather than in the expensive parts of town, so living near one buys convenience rather than a premium.

No cost. No obligation. Takes 60 seconds.

Trying to live here without a car?
