Population Density
This study examines the population trends and density of the Westwood Village I neighborhood in San Antonio, Texas, from 2010 to 2022. The data reveals significant population fluctuations over the past decade.
The neighborhood experienced a net population decline of approximately 15% between 2010 and 2022. In 2010, the population was 2,060 residents, decreasing to 1,745 by 2022. This period was characterized by several increases and decreases in population.
As of 2022, the population density was calculated at 8,187 people per square mile, indicating a densely populated urban area. This density suggests the prevalence of multi-family housing units, potentially including a mix of low to mid-rise apartments and townhomes.
A notable finding is the sharp population decline between 2018 and 2021, where the number of residents decreased from 1,983 to 1,463, a reduction of over 26% in three years. This significant change may be attributed to various factors, including economic shifts, changes in housing availability, or demographic transitions.
The data shows signs of population recovery in 2022, with an increase to 1,745 residents from the 2021 low. This recent uptick may indicate renewed interest in the area or new development attracting residents.
The high population density suggests that residents of Westwood Village I likely experience an urban lifestyle with access to various amenities and services. The compact nature of the neighborhood would promote walkability and potentially support local businesses and community facilities.
Based on the national average household size, the estimated number of housing units for 2022 is approximately 669. This high number of units in a small area further reinforces the urban character of the neighborhood, likely featuring apartment complexes and other forms of higher-density housing.
Despite the overall population decline since 2010, the neighborhood has maintained a consistently high population density. This indicates that Westwood Village I remains an integral part of San Antonio's urban landscape, offering a living environment that appeals to those seeking an urban lifestyle with the conveniences associated with higher-density areas.
