1990s homes, fifth-acre lots
Sonterra is a little older than most of 78258. County records put the median home at 1998, and 53% were built in the 1990s. Lot sizes barely move here. The median is 0.21 acre, and 85% of Sonterra lots fall in two of our sizes: 46% are a Standard yard at $55 a visit weekly and 39% are a Large yard at $60.
On Peg Oak, Treaty Oak, Mill Oak and Sweetbrush the typical lot is under a fifth of an acre. Calle Cierra, Twilight Ridge and Camino Ridge sit right around a fifth. Gran Roble runs about a third. That is why we price from your county lot record, not a guess.
The POA and the front yard
The Sonterra Property Owners Association is registered with the city for about 1,600 homes, so most front yards here answer to association rules. Every visit we mow, edge the curbs and walks, and blow the clippings off the drive. The city rules apply on top:
- Grass: weeds and grass over 12 inches are a public nuisance on any lot under three acres (Sec. 14-61).
- Brush: the city picks it up twice a year, 8 cubic yards at most, within 8 feet of the curb.
- Water: SAWS rules apply. In a drought stage, sprinklers run once a week on the day set by the last digit of your address.
Around the neighborhood
The association meets at the Club at Sonterra on East Sonterra Boulevard. We also mow in Rogers Ranch and Stone Oak, and the rest of our area is on the service area page.

“The Backyard Boys are the best! They were very professional and easy to work with in every step of the process. He made sure the quote was exactly what I wanted. The price was the best from several companies I had quoted. Diego let me know exactly when he would arrive. They worked hard all day and were very careful to make the lights look perfect! I had a problem after he left and he came back immediately to make sure everything worked perfectly. I highly recommend The Backyard Boys!!”
“There are not enough good things to say about the Backyard Boys. They went above and beyond installing Christmas roofline and trunk + limb lights. Diego et al were super friendly and couldn’t have been better with communications and checking to ensure the lights were perfect. You are making a mistake if you choose anyone else over the Backyard Boys.”

He was courteous, respectful, and took great care of my lawn. It’s refreshing to encounter someone who takes genuine pride in their work and treats your property with care. Everything looked beautiful when he finished, and I truly appreciate the time and effort he put into making my yard look its best. Diego is definitely an asset to the Backyard Boys team! I highly recommend their lawn care services and look forward to working with them again. Thank you, Diego!”
