Best In Texas Real Estate™: San Marcos-New Braunfels

🏆 Ranked #1 Most Owner-Occupied City in Texas — ALEX Intelligence, 2026. Belterra’s 98.6% owner occupancy rate isn’t just a statistic—it’s a structural feature of a community where homeownership is not a goal but a default. This level of stability reduces turnover and speculation but may also limit affordability and mobility. For real estate strategists, this is not just a data point—it’s a signal of market maturity and potential constraint.
