"San Marcos is a city and the county seat of Hays County, Texas, United States. The city's limits extend into Caldwell and Guadalupe counties, as well. San Marcos is within the Austin-Round Rock metropolitan area and on the Interstate 35 corridor between Austin and San Antonio. Its population is 67,553 at the 2020 census. Founded on the banks of the San Marcos River, the area is thought to be among the oldest continuously inhabited sites in the Americas. San Marcos is home to Texas State University and the Meadows Center for Water and the Environment."
"In 2010, San Marcos was listed in Business Week's fourth annual survey of the "Best Places to Raise your Kids". In 2013 and 2014, the United States Census Bureau named it the fastest-growing city in the United States. In December 2013, it was named number nine on Business Insider's list of the "10 Most Exciting Small Cities In America"."
"San Marcos is home to Texas State University, a multi-disciplinary public research university that was established in 1899.
For primary and secondary education, San Marcos is served by the San Marcos Consolidated Independent School District. San Marcos High School is the district's sole high school. San Marcos Academy, a private high school, is in the city. Doris Miller Middle School and Owen Goodnight Middle School are the two middle schools located in San Marcos. San Marcos is home to six elementary schools: Hernandez, Mendez, Crockett, Travis, Bowie, and DeZavala Elementary Schools. The city also houses a prekindergarten school, named Bonham Pre-K."
"San Marcos is also served by the Hays Consolidated Independent School District, in which Blanco Vista Elementary School is located within the San Marcos city limits in the extreme northeastern part of the city."
"San Marcos' central location along IH-35 and strong infrastructure makes it ideal for industry. It includes business incentives, a high quality of life, regional airports and proximity to major international airports, access to major roadways such as IH-35, SH-130, US-183, and IH-10, networking opportunities and support for small businesses and entrepreneurs, a healthy tax structure, and a diverse and talented workforce."
"Along with its easy access to air travel, San Marcos has ready access to several freight routes and IH-35 and IH-10, which run north/south and east/west, respectively, through the region. The access points of the area provide an easy route to major cities in Texas such as Austin, San Antonio, Dallas, and Houston."
"In 2013 and 2014, the United States Census Bureau named it the fastest-growing city in the United States. In December 2013, it was named #9 on the Business Insider list of the "10 Most Exciting Small Cities In America."
"The river is a popular recreational area and is frequented by residents and tourists for tubing, canoeing, swimming, and fishing. The Texas Water Safari starts in San Marcos on the first Saturday in June each year. Due in part to its natural beauty, the city was nicknamed "San Marvelous". San Marcos references the nickname in its "Keep San Marcos Beautiful" campaign."
"For more than 20 years, the San Marcos Performing Arts Commission and the San Marcos Parks and Recreation Department have hosted the Summer in the Park concert series with live music at an outdoor venue every Thursday night from June to August."

I lived in both San Marcos and Austin for 2 years. I wouldn’t call San Marcos a mini Austin… not yet at least. San Marcos feels more like a college town than anything. When you go to all the parks and downtown San Marcos, it is mostly college aged students while the rest are mostly Latino families since San Marcos is largely a Latino community. As for small town feel, San Marcos still feels like a small town, not so much traffic, lots of fun activities around you, and old historic heritage. Just stay away from I-35. As a recent graduate from Texas State University, I would recommend the school and town for everyone, and not just the party crowd.
Moved here in 2016 and i love it here. Its home sweet home. The rivers are the best!
I used to live there in 2013 at Bobcat Village when I was an exchange student. I am German and I loved this little town. It's growing so much right now. Better days where in the past I think
The best days were 1990-2009 I was raised there and the rest of the country ravaged this town, it’s horrible now, overpopulated, economy ruined, etc. I left the state and seek a new beginning
I moved here in 2019 and so far it’s been good. The people have been nice. I-35 can be really bad at times… I worked in Austin and commute… but it’s definitely cheaper to live here than Austin.
I-35 is bad, all the time, outsiders like you ravaged the lands I was raised on, I was forced out and seek a new beginning
san marcos will connect austin and san antonio in a megaregion like dallas-fortworth in the near future
Of course it will. This IS Texas, after all💲💔
Grew up in SM, and so did my mom. It was a much nicer town back in the day. Lol. The college didn't overrun the city then. Not enough emphasis on the river. Also, Wimberley, Canyon Lake, Gruene, New Braunfels, etc are right there and we were at the rivers there all the time too. Spent most of my life around these areas, much more than Austin or SA. We had one 6th grade, one jr high, and one high school... everyone knew everyone & our parents grew up with their parents. Great memories.
And the TX State population is growing up 5-7K this year as people look for more affordable options
how are schools for children & teens?
Frank, thanks 4 the info, will surely go check it out! Blessings!
Happy to be of help!
Good video, but you kind of breezed past the river discussion. The entire river comes out of the warm water springs in the middle of the town, there’s 12,000 years of habitation
Went to school there.... beautiful town and people!!!
thank you, my husband just got relocated to Austin, this video is very helpful
Happy to be of help!
The sales rep for my builder says he's having a hard time selling to families because of the schools in SM.
I've lived in SM for the last 30 yrs. I wanna move, the small town charm is gone.
Same. People need to stop moving here...
Me too...its gone downhill bad , austin is spilling over
there are several manufactures and corporate headquarters in San Marcos, Mensor, Mccoys, Cfan, Ember industries, ...,
The main drawback commuting to Austin from SM for an East coaster would be that you are sitting in your car (not public transportation) and for a west coaster it might be actually refreshing since it’s a straight shot down the interstate.
For families relocating, the schools have always been a point of contention. San Marcos is very socioeconomically diverse with a large portion being socioeconomically disadvantaged . That directly relates to the school district and their performance and thus, the C+ grade. Still a quality education can be achieved. The district facilities are all Mostly updated or fairly new so that is a plus for families. So it’s rather unfair to judge them against a Leander or a round rock school district as large portions of those districts do not share the same demographics.
Being that most people, regardless of where they live, just do the same activities day in and day out. San Marcos has every type of shopping available, every chain restaurant available, and two HEB stores for groceries So your needs or met in that regard.
Young professionals may not be bothered by living closer to the square or other high density student populations, but families in newer subdivisions, and even nicer apartments, are far far enough away from those student populations that you can build a good life there.
And remember holidays and in summertime, the student population drops dramatically.
Bang for your buck is good, access to retail and restaurants is good, the small town feel, although diminished a bit with modern development is still very much apart of that City’s Character. It’s definitely a quality place to live with quicker access to many items that you would have to battle for in a big city. And to sit between two incredibly different and unique metropolitan areas, makes it a true gem.
No city in the state compares to the natural beauty of Austin and its magnificent green belts and rolling Hills, but it’s one pricey place and a large portion of your income will go to housing. If you can swing it, Austin is still going to be the winner in the I 35 corridor.
San marcos River has my heart
QUE VIVA SAN MARCOS TEJAS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is the property rate bad in San Marcos? I seen some numbers where 17 to 23 percent , not sure if that’s true
San “Marcus” 🤣🤣🤣
That's how we say it
People pronounce things definitely
And you pronounce Texas how??
Could it be like…
Teck-sis?!
Lol
I live in San Marcos
What about for international students coming for undergraduate studies in texas state university and are willing not to stay in the university?
What's the affordability?
Cheapest price of accomodation and foods?
I want to know
That would be a terrible commute....
Having a good local Episcopal School is the bottom line for good education anywhere.
I graduated from Texas State University, and definitely do not feel that San Marcos is a "miniature Austin". 🤨
Can you say, which city is the best in US to live?
Glenrio,Texas
Phoenix , Arizona
Portland, Oregon
@painisvergina3693 thinks the middle of nowhere, North Dakota 😭
why do people pronounce it "san macus" when its spell san marcos
Because ‘TECK-sis’ 🤠
Don’t it sucks basically it’s a big ass collage station and just getting worse with all the collage kids would not recommend
JuSt gEtTiNg WoRsE. Oh, a college town has more college kids 🤦🏾♀️ nooooo
Somebody sure didn’t go to collEge…
Thanks, this helps. I'm moving to TX.
You are leaving me a bit confused as to your pronunciation of San Marcos. I cannot seem to find the U in Marcos. You keep saying Marcus.🤔
It's not San Marcus, it's San MarcOs.
Just like BEXAR County anglos say B E A R county 🤣😂🤣it’s a SPANISH NAME
All locals say San Markiss
@@teepicgamer73 Exactly. If they don't, we know they're not a local.
I've been stabbed! Ohhh It's just one of those rowdy college youngsters ha ha ha... oh you students...
A narc town
❤️
L take on multi culture in san marcos... im Hispanic and hate this town (I'm only here for texas state) bc I have to go to Austin to get a taste of my Hispanic culture when I want to get drinks🤨 . San Marcos only has one night at one club for "Latin night" and it's heartbreaking 😑😥
There are several Tejano bars in San Marcos
I grew up here, and there were plenty. College has taken over the city though. You would have liked it in the 70s/80s.
Don’t need to people to look like me to be happy
I’m hispanic living in San Antonio area. I miss the west coast mexican dances and rodeos. How diverse is San Marcos?
Is there not much of a Hispanic/Mexican culture in San Marcos? Asking out of genuine curiosity
Please recording texas chainsaw massacre san marcos lee bros company meat processing
They filmed the Getaway and Piranha here too. LBJ went to school here, George Strait lived here, the cop from Police Academy taught at the college, etc
Don’t live here, I’m from SM, everyone and their mommas from all over the country moved there and ravaged my lands, I now live in North Dakota in the middle of nowhere enjoying peace
I’ve heard that San Marcos, TX is a haven for Vegans, so that’s one of the main reasons it’s on my list of possible future moves. Austin is still a possibility.
You could have removed the confederate flag from that Round Rock sign. Thanks for the content anyway.🌈🌈🌈
Ligma
🤣 🤣 🤣
Boo-hoo are you triggered? 😂😂
