What are the best places to live in San Antonio?

I just got married. My wife is from San Antonio, and she wants to move back to be closer to her family. She hasn’t lived there in about 20 years, so she’s not sure where we should go. What are some of the best places to live in San Antonio?

San Antonio
is a hidden gem among more popular cities like Dallas, Houston, and Austin. However, it’s every bit as exciting, especially for new residents. If you’re planning your next move, here are some of the best places to live in San Antonio:
  • Tobin Hill: If you’re not quite ready to settle down, Tobin Hill is an excellent option. With an eclectic mix of college students, young professionals, and young families, this neighborhood has plenty to offer. Coffee shops, cafes, restaurants, and bars are all within walking distance, so you always have entertainment a few minutes away.
  • Alamo Heights: With several parks, botanical gardens, and a zoo, Alamo Heights is perfect for the person who wants to get outdoors. It’s also only 10 minutes from downtown, putting you close to Spurs games or the Riverwalk.
  • Terrel Hills: If you have a family or are planning for one, Terrel Hills is where you should settle down. It has a great school district, low crime, and tons of entertainment. Parks line the neighborhood and you can always find something to do with or without the family.
