And you can't get H‑E‑B anywhere else than Texas which is a plus. But the traffic has gotten worse. And people will just stop and stop traffic to make a left turn on double yellow lines they don't know how to drive they never pull over for an ambulance it's just crazy. California drivers are good drivers I very rarely saw traffic accidents in California I see them all the time here.

    I could say a lot…I moved here 7 yrs ago.
    But the traffic, constant construction, crime getting worse, everything expensive.
    I also hate how there’s only 2 grocery stores: HEB or Wal Mart. I guess you could count Costco.
    Back in my home state you had so many options. Martins, Meijer, Kroger, and the local town grocery stores. It was easy to save money and shop around. I do like HEB products, but it’d be nice to have other grocery store options.
    I hate having to make such an effort to drive anywhere. I’m terrified of getting into an accident.
    To be fair I wasn’t very happy to move here 7 years ago, but at least at that time it was bearable. Now I absolutely hate it and can’t wait to move!!!

    I will agree with this. I’ve lived in the Bay Area, LA, San Diego, Washington state, Vegas and travel throughout other states and now live in San Antonio. One thing that annoys the crap out of me is drivers here don’t stay in their own lane on the freeway. They’re constantly drifting into other lanes. Another thing that bothers me is that everyone wants to back into their spots (especially BIG trucks in the smallest parking spot) but then 1/2 the time they can’t even park it correctly!!!! But the one thing that I absolutely LOVE about this state is how genuine ppl are here!!!! I wish the rest of the US was like this!

Not to go to the extreme & ignorantly say there are "None" left because I'm sure there's a handful of them but from what I remember, there aren't many that are TRULY & actually walkable & bike friendly. Just a select few, to my knowledge & I doubt San Antonio is one of them. Unfortunately.
