Olmos Park is a separately incorporated city in central Bexar County, about four miles north of downtown San Antonio along U.S. Highway 281, and one of the three compact cities next to Alamo Heights and Terrell Hills. Homes here sit in a Type A general-law municipality of about six-tenths of a square mile, not a San Antonio neighborhood with the same name.
