I have flown there a couple of times.
Not to bad, but not amazing. Just remember that you are a stone's throw away from some of the best cities in the US. |

Yeah. Pretty close to both Austin and San Antonio.
And we didn't get the best chance to see the whole city while we were there, but left thinking we didn't like the town. |

Why are you moving if you don't mind me asking? We went through San Marcos a couple of years ago when we went to San Antonio. Can't really say I was impressed about anything.

Scottsdale, damn that would be very hard to give up for San Marcos IMO.

I lived in San Antonio for a while (Air Force) and have since been stationed elsewhere, but I can tell you that San Marcos has a ton of outlet stores and is about 30 miles outside of San Antonio. There's a nearby water park called Schlitterbahn (never went). As far as the area, I can't really comment per say, but just off my initial vibe: there's not a whole lot in the area outside of the outlet stores and a 30 mile trip to S.A......

I have a friend who lives there, teaching at Texas State. I've never been though.

We didn't really like Scottsdale that much, and CoL was ridiculous there, it seemed. |

Hardest thing is going to be trying to outdo the "Texas is the best at everything" bravado down there. It was annoying.

You are real close to Austin which is good.
Check out the trailers and if you like Indian cuisine go to Clay Pit. Good Hunting and Fishing Great tortillas at El Milagro. Great if your a hippie If you like to shop there is the 3rd best shopping in the nation at the San Marcos outlets. And I am spent. Ang |

Not a bad choice. The economy here in Tx is relatively better than the rest of the country so you have a good shot at getting a job,
