The City of Lytle
Lytle is on Interstate Highway 35 and U.S. Highway 81 in the far northwest corner of Atascosa County. The city limits extend into neighboring Bexar and Medina counties. The town was named for John T. Lytle, a rancher and trail driver active in the area in the 1860s and possibly as early as 1846. He was instrumental in establishing Lytle Station on the International-Great Northern Railroad in 1882.
Lytle is located about 23 miles southwest of San Antonio, so its residents can commute easily to their jobs and enjoy the small town atmosphere, as well as all the attractions of nearby San Antonio.
Present day Lytle is being called the fastest growing city in Atascosa County. The current population is estimated at 2,800, but city leaders feel it’s just a matter of time before Lytle’s population soars due to expected developments. With these new ventures anticipated in the near future and the already added population due to the annexation of Lake Shore Estates, this thriving city typifies its motto, “Lytle – A City on the Grow”.
