It is part of the San Antonio [[San Antonio metropolitan area|Metropolitan Statistical Area]], despite being much different in terms of demographics and having some of the wealthiest families in Bexar County. ==Geography== Shavano Park is located in north-central Bexar County. It is entirely surrounded by the city of San Antonio; the northern border is formed by the [[Charles W. Anderson Loop]] outer beltway around San Antonio. Despite lying in the far southeastern reaches of the [[Texas Hill Country]], Shavano Park's terrain is flat to gently rolling. Most of the city is between 950 and 1,000 feet above sea level, which contrasts sharply with neighborhoods just north of Anderson Loop, where hills can rise 200 feet in a short distance. Some areas of San Antonio farther south have greater elevation variation despite not technically lying in the Hill Country. The east side of town forms a plateau looking over a cliff descending fifty feet or more. This cliff marks the boundary with San Antonio. According to the [[United States Census Bureau]], Shavano Park has a total area of {{convert|8.6|km2|disp=flip}}, of which {{convert|0.01|sqkm|disp=flip|3}}, or 0.14%, is water.<ref name="Census 2010"/> ==Demographics== {{US Census population |align=left |1960= 343 |1970= 881 |1980= 1448 |1990= 1708 |2000= 1754 |2010= 3035 |footnote=U.S. Decennial Census<ref name="DecennialCensus">{{cite web|url=https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/decennial-census.html|title=Census of Population and Housing|publisher=Census.gov|accessdate=June 4, 2015}}</ref> |2020=3524}} {| class="wikitable" |+'''Shavano Park racial composition as of 2020'''<ref>{{Cite web |title=Explore Census Data |url=https://data.census.gov/cedsci/table?g=1600000US4867268&tid=DECENNIALPL2020.P2 |access-date=2022-05-24 |website=data.census.gov}}</ref><br /> (NH = Non-Hispanic){{efn|Note: the US Census treats Hispanic/Latino as an ethnic category.
