subject: Looking At The City Of San Antonio [print this page] Thanks for reading my article! As a proud Texan and San Antonio dweller, I love encouraging people to visit my hometown, the big SA. Heck, many people actually forward their visiting their friends to me, because I love to show people around the place! I love this city so much that in two decades of living here, I've not once desired or thought about leaving it.
Probably by far the best feature of San Antonio is its diversity of options on things to do, and atmospheres to enjoy. You get to feel like in a small city if you want to. But then, can switch right around the corner and get all the entertainment, art and business benefits of a big city.
One of the things I most love to point out is probably how much of entertainment this city provides, if that's what you're looking to. I would not exaggerate, even in the slightest to say that some people can come here as an alternative to the Las Vegas experience.
The ironic thing is that even many texans (and a few SA residents), don't know how much SA offers. Some of them travell all the way to LA to get their entertainment needs met. But its all here! You can get anything in San Antonio you can imagine. Its just a case of knowing that it exists!
For a lot of people, SA, can be a good balanced city. Its not too fancy, and too "out there", but its not some small little townsville, nowhere. A lot of the other big cities, tend to create an alienated mentality in people, to where, they lose track of humanity and just being friendly to people. Sure, the people in those super-huge cities have "friends", but they're more meaningless acquaintances, since that's the actual "nature" of those cities. In fact, in those cities there is no way to reconnect to humanity. They are the exact opposite of super small cities, that actually have the problem of offering no choices or things to do. And extremes are always bad for you. This is why San Antonio is the best choice to me. It has the small-town feel in terms of how people act and communicate, but all the choices and diversity of a big city.
