H2: Selma: the crossroads city, two subdivision generations
Selma sits on I-35 at Loop 1604, wrapped around the Forum shopping district and the old Retama grounds: a small historic town that the corridor turned into a crossroads city, with established subdivisions from the 1980s and 1990s on one side of the interstate and new growth on the other. Alamo Air Care works Selma on the northeast corridor days, and most Selma calls are seen the same day.
Two generations of stock share this small map, and they are at different chapters of the same book. The older subdivisions are in the coil and replacement years: second systems aging out, ductwork original, refrigerant questions live on every leak call. The newer growth is in the first-failure years: capacitors and fan motors going in formation across streets built within months of each other. Retail and highway noise aside, Selma's residential streets are quiet, close in, and fast to work, which makes it a natural anchor on the corridor run between the city and Schertz.
Tell Gwen which side of I-35 the house is on. In Selma the interstate is the dividing line between the two generations, and it sorts the usual suspects before the truck leaves the yard.
Guidance for Selma: ask which chapter your street is in, first failures or replacement years. The honest conversation is different in each, and a company that gives both streets the same speech is reading from a script, not from your house.
