<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Situated in Wilson County, Stockdale is about 25 miles south of Seguin and 40 miles southeast of San Antonio&rsquo;s downtown. Historically, the area was established in 1863 and named after the lieutenant governor of Texas, Fletcher Stockdale, and was incorporated in 1919. The town&rsquo;s wildly popular annual Watermelon Jubilee first started in 1937.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Stockdale has an estimated population of over 1,500 individuals, so there is a charming small-town vibe here that cannot be mimicked in bigger suburbs. The city&rsquo;s students are served by the Stockdale Independent School District, consisting of Stockdale Elementary, Stockdale Junior High, and Stockdale High School (home of the Stockdale High Brahmas). Adults can easily commute to jobs in San Antonio and in other areas, as well.</p>
