Share this article:

As the Pokémon Go fever takes over the River City, there is still one thing that may be even more sought after than a rare Pokémon species… reasonably priced rent!

San Antonio is a perfect mixture of big-city attitude and traditional Tex-Mex lifestyle.  Be it food or leisure activities, this uniquely charming Texan city has it all. You can take a stroll down the famous River Walk to the sounds of flamenco music and sample the city’s signature chili dish at your own risk, or visit one of the historical missions and the craft market surrounding the old fountain. If you want to take the children on an adventure, you’re in luck: there are many family-friendly destinations to choose from, such as the Natural Bridge Wildlife Ranch, where you can have animals eating from the palm of your hand…literally!

Whenever you feel like heading back home, you can relax in your quiet apartment in one of the city’s many friendly communities. We have four such picks for you, proof that you don’t have to become a Pokémon Master to score an affordable and cozy place in San Antonio:
