Living in San Antonio
-

Overall, San Antonio is a nice place to live. The weather is generally pleasant but from mid June to about mid September, it does get scorching hot. I remember one August, for two straight weeks, the high was over 100 every day. Although the humidity is not as bad as the east coast, the heat is brutal. The rest of the year is fine for the most part. The people are typically very friendly. The population is about 60-65 Mexican and there is no shortage of good aithentic Mexican food . I enjoyed the exposure to Latino culture. Now for the downside. It's very car dependent for such a large city unless you live right in downtown. Most places outside of downtown are not convenient to a bus route. Parking downtown is difficult but unless you are within five miles, the bus will take forever. The service is limited and the busses tend to run late. Another downside, it can get very boring. San Antonio seems like an exciting but it really isn't when you live there. I admit sometimes a moonlit stroll on the Riverwalk is always nice but other than that, there is no much else that doesn't get old. Fiesta is pretty fun but that only comes once a year. Yes I would recommend living in San Antonio to see how you like it. Many people love it there and it definitely has its good points.
