Possibly moving to San Antonio

Thoughts on San Antonio? Late 30's, single, job would be national exposure in the commercial real estate investment world but would have to be in SA. Moving from Austin so a bit different in terms of energy, nightlife, single gals. Looking for feedback from anyone who lives or has lived there. TIA

If you're into chubby latinas, it's the place to be

You'll only be a little over an hour away from Austin. Hang out there on weekends

I spent a month there a couple of years ago. I was very unimpressed. There's some cool stuff near there though

A good city to visit for a few days. Living there. NOPE

Much more affordable compared to Austin

Boring compared to Austin, but if it's a good job you'll figure out things to do. It's not that far a drive to Austin or Hill Country.

I work there a few weeks out of the year.
Cost of living is much cheaper than Austin. Culture is a lot different too, not as much on the cards for haute cuisine or music scene. Traffic is pretty bad if you work the 9-5.

Have family in Fair Oaks. I could live on that side of town. If you work downtown that commute would suck.

Work in your cholo squat game.

It's a uninspiring city. Not much engagement from citizens. Almost exact opposite of Austin. Traffic is awful, lots of strip mallls, very little character. Single should try and live downtown IMO. It's a strange place. I've lived in at least 10 other cities and San Antonio is easily the most uninteresting

Only thing I can add is I have been there twice, both times in the summer. It is the most humid place I have even been and that is saying a lot since I live in South La. I enjoyed the city but it was just HOT...
Good luck.
Good luck.

I didn't find that to be the case when I was at ft. Sam Houston and at camp bullis in the summertime. I also was wearing my combat gear. La still felt hotter imo

S.A. doesn't have the same vibe Austin does, but these people talking about the traffic are crazy. It's a major city, but has really solid options for transport. Loops, etc help. Look near the Quarry, Alamo heights, the Pearl, or downtown.
