How to verify zoning in San Antonio.

San Antonio zoning is governed by the Unified Development Code, which pairs a base district with frequently applied overlays — Neighborhood Conservation, Historic, Airport Hazard, and the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone. The recharge zone in particular adds impervious-cover and water-quality review that the base district does not disclose.

How it works

Available data, one preliminary view.

Buildability geocodes the address, queries available flood, seismic, soil, radon, wildfire, and zoning context, and runs the published Buildability Score. Reports name the sources used and the items that still need local verification.

Does Buildability make the official zoning decision in San Antonio?

No. Buildability organizes preliminary property context and links to local evidence.

What does the Buildability Score measure?

The preliminary score considers nine factors: zoning, flood, seismic, soil, radon, wildfire, utilities, terrain, and lot geometry. Availability and depth vary by address and source; City of San Antonio remains the local authority for project-specific decisions.
