By Taylor Williams Earlier this year, data from the U.S. Census Bureau emerged stating that San Antonio had added 22,000 new residents between July 2022 and 2023, making it the nation’s fastest-growing city during that time. That figure exceeded the 18,900 new residents added between July 2021 and 2022 and brought the Alamo City’s total head count to about 1.5 million people, making it the seventh-largest U.S. city by population. With such growth comes pressure from both the anchor city and its surrounding municipalities to deliver solid employment, housing and recreation options for residents. City officials and leaders can make good on that charge by a variety of means and mechanisms, and rarely does one city or submarket’s blueprint for accommodating growth match that of another. As such, the suburbs surrounding the San Antonio area are increasingly standing on their own as unique communities that are more than capable of attracting quality housing development, national retail and restaurant users and new employment opportunities. In this story, we take a closer look at specific projects and initiatives that are helping some of these municipalities effectively and efficiently ride the wave of regional growth.
