San Antonio MSA

San Antonio MSA leads Texas in net household migration, gaining 5,371 households between 2022 and 2023—according to ALEX Intelligence’s latest analysis of IRS migration data. This isn’t just a housing trend—it’s a demographic pivot. The city is absorbing internal Texas migration, particularly from Hays and Bexar counties, turning itself into a regional anchor. This flow is fueling price resilience even as rates stay elevated. The data shows San Antonio isn’t just attracting people—it’s becoming the destination of choice.
