In the early years, mission Indians lived in small detached houses called jacales. In 1755, eighty-four of these jacales lined "streets" in what is today the plaza. But after 1768, as conflicts with Apaches and Comanches increased, the mission was enclosed. Indians began living in rooms along the walls, similar to those seen today.

Mission Indians received rations of food and other necessities, but were responsible for preparing meals and performing household duties themselves.
