History
Helotes, Texas is on State Highway 16 some sixteen miles northwest of downtown San Antonio in northwestern Bexar County. It was first settled around 1856 by Mexicans who intermarried with the Apache Indians camped in the vicinity. A man named Chaca was supposed to have been the first person to build a house and cultivate a cornfield at the site and may have been responsible for the name, which in Spanish means "green roasting ear of corn." Another tradition claims that the name derived from the problems Anglo settlers had with Indians stealing their ripening corn. Yet another story has it that San Antonio vegetable-sellers could always rely on the town for corn, even in periods of drought.
As the urban sprawl of San Antonio expanded and approached the outskirts of Helotes in the 1970s, residents determined to take their fate into their own hands. After a decade of planning and negotiation, Helotes became an incorporated city in October 1981. To this day, residents still struggle with the dilemma of maintaining the city's rugged country charm, while at the same time allowing for the development of modern suburban facilities and businesses.
