Information about San Antonio, Texas.
I've lived in San Antonio for about seven years. San Antonio is a large city located in south Texas that has a population of 1.1 million people(according to Yahoo). The capital of Texas, Austin, is located about ninety miles to the north. San Antonio has its good sides as well as bad sides, just like any major city.
The climate can be quite hot in the summer but mild in the winter. Allergies can be quite severe in this city. I read somewhere online about the worst cities for allergies, and I believe San Antonio was rated number twenty one or so. Mountain cedar is an example of one of the many pollens that exist here.
One of the nice things about Texas is that houses are still affordable(in most places). You can buy condos for around one hundred thousand dollars, and a house for two hundred thousand dollars. I'm sure the numbers could be lower than that, if you shop around.
Another reason why this is a nice place to live is because of the fun attractions you can visit. Some fun places where you can go are the Riverwalk, Schlitterbahn, SeaWorld, Six Flags, the Alamo; etc. Rumor has it that Disney World may come here. But it is just a rumor.
The Riverwalk is located in the downtown area, and it is a nice place to shop and see some sites. You can also take a boat ride down the Riverwalk, which is about a mile long. Or just walk, your choice. Schlitterbahn is a waterpark that is located in the New Braunfels area, which is in the northern part of the city.
The Travel Channel has rated it as the number one waterpark in the world. SeaWorld is full of animals, rides, water attractions, and much more. And finally, Six Flags is another theme park that specializes in roller coaster rides, animal shows, and water attractions. The Alamo is an old fort that held off the Spanish army for quite some time; it's located near the downtown area, as well.
