A SA policeman told me there were 5 raids in the high end Dominion area. The Cartel moved in & brought trouble.

[@daniellewis6491]

Enjoy your videos. Chapter indexes would make them better and easier to watch.

[@Nicole-zv7ee]

Great video. Thank you.

[@efraincorpus8777]

9:21 that’s Castroville Ca I’m from that area but now I’m Texas. Will be relocating to SA next year.

[@LifeinSATX]

Didn’t catch that when reviewing it from my editor! Definitely not in Texas. My mistake!

[@jeangill1187]

Homes and taxes are very expensive here in SanAntonio. Summers are really hot. I’m from Michigan and have been in SanAntonio for 2 summers. Can’t really do much outside from April through October. We 😮are just now getting into the 80’s. Winters are nice.

[@SOCCERNUT32]

Great video buddy !

[@dfoster6828]

Great guide!

[@meganmondelli4426]

Hey! Love the content… I want to have chickens… does the Woodbridge HOA in La Vernia allow chickens?

[@Hammster69official]

Most of the "suburban" area is also in San Antonio city limits, though there are about a dozen independent cities that are completely enclaved, plus the cities northeast along I-35 that are quickly turning San Antonio and Austin into one big metropolitan sprawl. The spark for San Antonio took place circa 1940 - Alamo Heights, Olmos Park, and Terrell Hills incorporated within a two year period. That was half of the city's northern border at the time. The city saw the writing on the wall and spent the rest of the twentieth century pursuing what was euphemistically called an "aggressive annexation policy". Today, it's to the point that San Antonio and Bexar County might just as well consolidate.

We need chapter timestamps

[@JessicaMosley-on5nm]

Great video

[@1980gcapelo]

Born in raised in San Antonio tx alamo ranch area before it was alamo ranch lol. I work in the home building field and have been to alk these neighborhoods and they are all have the ups and downs but all the homes are awesome and you have great videos

[@LifeinSATX]

Thank you! I appreciate that.

[@noemiaranda7680]

Very nice información, but can you mention, if they are hospital's close by. Thank you

[@MAGAISKLAN]

We have a large medical center in San Antonio!

[@braddomangue185]

I moved from New Orleans to Carlsbad, NM. Now I'm about to move to San Antonio. I need help lol.

[@tanyaarmendariz4047]

Moved to San Antonio from Las Vegas, NV. Trying to adjust

[@POKE_TX]

My family and I are looking to move to San antonio or a suburb, but we would like to rent at first. Could you help with that as well?

[@AmisM711]

I suggest looking to live near your place of employment. Traffic is becoming insane and with the heat makes it even more frustrating. Northwest and northside Central downtown is nice but if you have to drive on 410 or 1604, expect an hour delay for the most part.

[@phyllisrampulla1700]

We rented at Braunfels Place in New Braunfels. Great location to look around from. Literally walk to the new HEB on Walnut and there's a Walgreens and Chase Bank across the street.

[@brandonmack2702]

Anything near Elmendorf TX?

[@hildahilpert5018]

Alamo Heights is the Hoity Toity part of town.It,s not cheap living there, I do love the bungalows, Olmos Park is an other expensive area.If you go east, You have Schertz, Cibolo, New Braunfels,.even places like Marion towards Seguin is growing.He isnt telling you about all the traffic you face daily.IH35 is considered the worst road in San Antonio ,after that Loop 1604.They won't be great schools with the Federal Government and State of Texas cutting funding to school districts .The Govenor and his crew is pushing school vouchers, so that means more of your property tax dollars funding these charter and religious schools , plus what will be left of the public schools .People are pulling their kids out and even home schooling.That,s why SAISD is closing schools. Wish all these rich Auslanders would go somewhere else.He,s not telling these folks ut gets Hot here! Has been over 100 degrees all week.Also, we have water rationing so no lawn watering for you except on certain days. Because if all these people moving here no homes under 300k.Any homes in New Braunfels, selling at 100K or under, are older homes needing work ,older neighborhoods some not so good.Great , didnt kniw the school district here in Schertz- Cibolo schools were grade Z.

[@reviewsbyHP]

Thank you!

[@Lily_of_the_Alley]

It is so wild to me that someone is saying that just under half a million dollars for a home is "affordable"... what that tells me is I'll never be able to afford a home and I was born in San Marcos. The Guadalupe is the only river that feeds into Canyon Lake and it hasn't flowed into it in over two years now - hope they get more rain 😣

[@LifeinSATX]

$500k is not necessarily “affordable” but for a middle class family it’s definitely still doable. When you look at the new construction, they are making such good deals on interest rates it makes the payment more affordable than it would be. Don’t give up hope! There are also plenty of truly affordable homes in SA that are around $200k still.

[@Brandon_Lambert]

I’m with you, my family can’t afford more than 200k for a home. Which used to be possible in many areas just a few years ago but not now unless you want to raise your kids in the hood….. if it was just me I’d do it but not with 4 kids

[@katb4100]

​@@Brandon_Lambert Hello, we are moving to Texas, and we are thinking about San Antonio, I also have 4 children and this worries me because we want a place that is, in a way, safe and has good schools, which place in San Antonio would you recommend? or another city to indicate, please.

[@Dirk-my2zf]

@@katb4100 Boerne, TX

[@GrannyLinn]

I did watch to the end, waiting for you to show suburbs south of San Antonio. What happened??

[@LifeinSATX]

Unfortunately there is not one major suburb south of San Antonio.

[@GrannyLinn]

@@LifeinSATX Pleasanton and Poteet both have new construction neighborhoods. Jourdanton has a hospital that’s part of the Methodist Healthcare System. Poteet is 20 minutes from San Antonio; Pleasanton, 30. Pleasanton has a beautiful park on the Atascosa River. Small town life close to the city. At least check it out.

[@membersonly4122]

How’s living in converse?

[@franciscofco]

What suburb in San Antonio is better if I want to make sure I will avoid flooding in the future??

[@Mlarque]

This post photo is not in San Antonio. That is Boerne … Main Street in Boerne.

[@LifeinSATX]

You’re right! This video is specifically about the Suburbs of San Antonio.

[@popsmoke4684]

All y’all just stay on the north side don’t go to south,east or west

[@joyfonvielle4227]

Background music sucks.

[@sunneekee854]

Auto thiefs up 50% in SA. Do NOT leave valuables in car!

[@marycawell38]

Talking too fast. Slow down.some home buyers English is their second language.

[@LifeinSATX]

Noted. I’ve gotten that a few times so I really appreciate the feedback. Hard to change the way I naturally talk though but I’ll give it a shot. Lol. 😅

[@salmanghanchi7682]

Hello! You can actually go to the settings at the top right of the video and change the playback speed to .75x and it’ll slow down a bit. Thanks for the video, Michael!

[@HappinessDIY]

@@LifeinSATX also maybe consider choosing Spanish subtitles might help? I thought it was fine.

[@1980gcapelo]

You're talking fine. And this is a English speaking neighborhood anyway lol

[@coletraincyclist5979]

As long as he speaks English he’s speaking fine…

[@Nicdangershouse.]

The whole city is one big ghetto

[@clairelivefreeordie2551]

What makes you say that... serious question...I know people that have moved to San Antonio & they seem to love it.

[@LifeinSATX]

Was literally just about to comment the same thing as above… That statement is completely false.

[@Nicdangershouse.]

@clairelivefreeordie2551 the majority of people here are uneducated, obese and the city is the poorest city in America, there is trash and graffiti everywhere and property crimes are rampant. The city doesn't clean or mow the right of ways and intersections so grass and weeds are overgrown, it's just an ugly city...

[@Nicdangershouse.]

@clairelivefreeordie2551 it's basically north Mexico, the border has moved north to San Antonio, there are lots of run down neighborhoods and a bunch of old banged up cars on the road...there is nothing to do here and it's boring, if you like tacos served from a taco trailer then this is the place for you..

[@LifeinSATX]

San Antonio is an older city. Just like every city in America, it has older, run down neighborhoods that have been the same for 50+ years. It’s not even close to “north Mexico”.
