When Trisha Garza and her husband were looking for their first home together, they knew they wanted a place with character. They found it in Los Angeles Heights-Keystone.
Trisha Garza and her husband, Matt DeWaal, moved to the Los Angeles Heights-Keystone area about a year ago.The Where I Live series aims to showcase our diverse city and region by spotlighting its many vibrant neighborhoods. Each week a local resident invites us over and lets us in on what makes their neighborhood special. Have we been to your neighborhood yet?Until about a year ago, I had lived with my dad on the Southeast Side of San Antonio.
We found our house in Los Angeles Heights-Keystone and were immediately sold. We loved the porch, the fireplace and the built-in shelves. We loved that it felt lived in, like an actual home. In the past year, we’ve really settled in, adding our own touches, decorating for holidays and taking on some projects. The next big one for me will be to plant a garden in the backyard. I don’t know much about gardening, but I’m excited to learn and see what I can grow.
Frida’s Taqueria down the street is my go-to for tacos and other Mexican dishes. We’re also near the Original Donut Shop, which is an institution in this area. For pan dulce and coffee, we’re within walking distance of Panaderia Jimenez, and it’s nice to wake up early and stop in before starting the workday.Bria Woods / San Antonio Report
Though it’s been harder to get to know our neighbors because of the pandemic, the NextDoor app has been helpful in keeping up to date on what’s happening in the neighborhood. There’s a good mix of older residents and younger families, and we’ve found everyone to be friendly and respectful.
