Given how popular Texas is these days, it’s difficult to find a reason not to move here. This is especially true for areas like San Antonio, which has seen a steady growth rate in population since the 1950s. Approximately 2.5 million people call San Antonio home, with a large bulk of those living in the sought-after area of North San Antonio.
This begs the question: what makes luxury living in North San Antonio worth it? As a luxury apartment complex located in the heart of this community, we know a thing or two about the Alamo City’s history, culture and what makes us a community to love. Here are five benefits of living in North San Antonio:
1. Prime Location and Accessibility
One of the biggest advantages of living in North San Antonio is its location. You still get the benefits of living in a big city, but with the feel of a smaller community. Costa Bella Apartments is situated in a desirable part of town, providing residents with easy access to major highways like Loop 1604 and US-281. This connectivity ensures that commuting to Downtown San Antonio, the Medical Center or any other part of the city is quick and hassle-free.
Being in North San Antonio also means you’re close to numerous shopping centers like The Shops at La Cantera and North Star Mall—as well as a variety of retail stores, dining options and entertainment venues. Additionally, the proximity to San Antonio International Airport makes traveling a breeze (whether for business or leisure).
2. Top-Notch Education
From kindergarten to college, you’ll find top-notch schools in this part of the city. This is a great benefit for families considering a move to this area, as the quality of education is a top priority. North San Antonio boasts some of the best schools in the region and it features highly rated school districts like North East Independent School District (NEISD) and Northside Independent School District (NISD), both known for their commitment to academic excellence and comprehensive extracurricular programs.
Costa Bella Apartments’ location also provides easy access to several prestigious public and private schools, ensuring that your children can receive a top-tier education close to home. (Texas also makes it easy to homeschool kids, if that’s your preference.) Furthermore, the area is home to reputable higher education institutes like the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) and several community colleges, making it ideal for students of all levels.
3. Abundant Recreational Options
The opportunities for outdoor exploration and relaxation are another big benefit of living in North San Antonio, as there are plenty of options. Outdoor enthusiasts (and those who enjoy an active lifestyle) will enjoy the beautiful parks, hiking trails and recreational facilities that dot our landscape. McAllister Park, for example, is one of the largest parks in San Antonio and offers miles of hiking and biking trails, sports fields and picnic areas.
Again, Costa Bella is just a short drive away from these scenic locations, letting you experience the beauty of the Texas Hill Country within minutes. Whether you’re interested in wine tasting, hiking or simply exploring charming small towns, you can do it all here. Additionally, golf fans will appreciate the numerous courses in the area, like TPC San Antonio, which hosts the annual Valero Texas Open.
4. Rich Cultural Heritage
San Antonio is a thriving community known for its history and rich culture, and North San Antonio is no exception. This area is a melting pot of different cultures and experiences, creating a diverse and vibrant environment. The annual Fiesta San Antonio is just one example of this, as it’s a city-wide celebration that includes parades, festivals and events. It’s just one opportunity to experience the culture of the region.
There are also plenty of opportunities to engage with neighbors, from farmer’s markets and neighborhood gatherings to other local events.
