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

Travis County is the single largest source of new households in the San Marcos–New Braunfels MSA, contributing 5,563 of the total inflow—more than any other county. This data comes directly from ALEX Intelligence’s exclusive analysis of IRS migration flows, published today: https://alex-companies.com/data/2026-11-05-san-marcos-nb-mig-in-origin. What does this mean for the future of housing demand in Hays and Comal counties? How might this concentrated migration shape community development and infrastructure planning? We’re seeing a deliberate shift—not just from Austin, but from Austin’s core. This isn’t just about affordability; it’s about identity. How do you see this trend evolving?
