Hey guys, my home here in Vegas is for sale and I have been looking at moving to Dallas. Last night I started eyeing San Antonio and now I cant decide. I dont want to start a huge pissing match between people in San Antonio and Dallas but just curious if there some of you who have lived in both and what your likes and dislikes were. And with any city there are some areas you want to stay away from, what are these areas for both? Also, another big factor, car culture. Gotta have cool cars! If there are any realtors in the house I'm actually looking to buy an inexpensive house to turn around and put up for rent and then purchase one for myself. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, James.

Not a huge fan of Dallas personally.

North/NW San Antonio is a nice area though.

San Antonio - cost of living is about as cheap as it gets and you are a stones throw away from Austin, CC, Dallas, & Houston

I don't like Dallas itself, but I love the DFW area and would choose it over the San Antonio area any day.

Yeah with 2 Big cities side by side something is always going down. Then you stick Garland, Mesquite, and Arlinghton, And holy crap its a war. If you like Racing I think the dfw area is for you. I dont go a day with out making my car go up to 6500 rmps. But that is just me.

I am about to make the complete opposite move....San Antonio to Las Vegas. I like San Antonio a lot. It's big enough to have most of the big city amenities but small enough to feel like a small town. SA has an OK night life but Austin is only 1.5hrs away. San Antonio Raceway is a nice 1/4mile track and it's cheap. My family and I plan on coming back after my assignment in Vegas is up. Maybe we can help each other out with info on both areas...I don't know jack about Vegas except that houses there are insanely expensive.

man it took me about 45 minutes to get from SA to austin when i lived in SA(but i lived in the northeast part right where you leave SA to go to austin), im living in dallas now though, i odnt like dallas too much, everything is far, tolls etc, sa is very easy to get around, ur 2 hrs from the beach, 2 hrs from mexico an hr from austin, 25min from san marcos/new branfels/rivers etc, i think sa is in a great location, and ya the spurs>mavs and the spurs>houston

Yeah, thats one reason why I'm getting out, salaraies are not even close to where they need to be for housing prices. I was lucky to pick up my house before the boom otherwise I'd be living in a shack. lol I have a good amount of equity in the house but I'm kinda stuck there, cant afford to upgrade. Plus I've been here almost 24 years, its time to go.
