San Antonio being called the next Phoenix.

[N.Y. Johnny]

Great. That means more college educated Yuppie Anglos for the poorly educated local Hispanics to serve.

The article neglected to mention that.

Phoenix is a nice place...love it, the weather there is perfect for me, i hate the in cold...if SA is the next Phoenix thats great, just would be better without all the goddamn Golfers

I have to confess when I read the le of this thread I thought it was going to be about the Saints (compared to the Cardinals moving to Arizona back in the day).

Phoenix is a great town to compare SA to in terms of business growth. I proposed to my ex-wife in a little Scottsdale bistro and we used to visit her family there often.

Except for the downtown area San Antonio is a suburban sprawled city like most others. I hope it is able to have balanced growth unlike the severely lopsided growth it's had the last 40+ years. That's been a drag.

Very true.

But as for Windcrest, it's a city that has an estimated average household income of $70,795.

still a hole that think they are better than everyone else and in many ways cut themselves off from the rest of the city even more so than alamo heights.
