Air Force Village opened in 1970 with a service mission: to provide excellent retirement living with access to continuing health care for retired military commissioned and warrant officers and their spouses - and to give priority to retired Air Force officer widows in need of financial assistance. AFV is home to more than 1,200 retired and honorably separated military officers from all branches of U.S. military service, their spouses, widows, widowers and eligible dependents. The two separate AFV campuses are located on San Antonio's far west side near Wilford Hall Medical Center.
