Helotes News:  How long have you been a resident of Helotes?

Matthew Merchant:  My family and I have been residents of Helotes since 2013. We moved here for many reasons, but the number one reason was family. I had retired from the Navy in 2012, my wife who also served on active duty in the Navy had an opportunity to move to the San Antonio area. I have three children from a previous spouse who lives here in Helotes. We did some research and couldn’t have made a better decision to move to Helotes.
