San Antonio MSA

San Antonio MSA’s in-migration rose 15.1% between 2017-18 and 2022-23, driven by households from Comal, Travis, and Hays counties—counties that are no longer just satellite zones but active contributors to the metro’s demographic engine. This is not just movement; it’s a structural shift in how Texas’s urban core is being reshaped.
