Is it better to live in a brick house or wooden house in San Antonio Texas?

It makes very little difference assuming equal thicknesses, because the insulating factor for both wood and brick are very poor. How much "good" insulation you have in each case makes the difference. Materials like fiberglass are three or more times more effective than either wood or brick. \n\nAs a side note. Most house today are not made of brick but only have a brick veneer over a wood frame.

I can't think of any different, but been living here all my life in the bay area in Silicon Valley, Tri-Valley and the  Central Valley.  I like the Central Valley the best, because you don't really feel the Earthquake here.  What really puzzle me the most is high cost housing is in the wrong area because they are on the Earthquake foundations and all other areas in the east of the Bay Area is lower and little effects on Earthquakes.  My point is the Eastern side should cost more than the Western side of California because more safer from Earthquakes.  Any lands that is far side safer from earthquake shall be consider the highest in the house Market!  Funny the House Market should go back to school!

Assuming you would live in the same place all year round, I would chose South Carolina, at Myrtle Beach. The summer months are near perfect and doesn't get too cold in the winter. Not to mention how much slower life moves there; far slower than the hustle and bustle of most major cities. Outside of the US, I would live in either the Caribbean or across the ocean in Italy. But if you want to be treated like royalty, India is it. The difference in price there is amazing. $200,000 would be like having more than a million in the US.

Depends on your situation and the available of housing.  Sometimes going back home is the best choice since you can save money and be able to afford to live in a "nicer" place.

UT Austin is just better overall, so you should go there instead of San Marcos.

Are you kidding? Ft. Sam is practically downtown San Antonio, one of the most exciting and fun cities in the USA.\n\nAlso, it is really inexpensive there, compared to most other major cities.\n\nI hope you enjoy it there as much as I did.

Southern White Pine.\n\nKnown for it's strength and height. Your best sturdy boards are made of it. ..and cost worthy.

The San Francisco bay area. You could get a good job in S.F. and live a little cheaper in a near by city/suburb. Of you could get a job in a number of other cities, from oakland to san jose. There is always work in the bay area and it's a great place to live. Lots of different people and lots of things to do. You can learn so much there.

I lived in AZ, it'll depend on why...If working in Phoenix, Casa Grande is about an hour south and a great city to live in...it is also about an hour north of Tuscon so same answer...If looking to retire or just live, I would recommend Wickenburg area

I know we are actually getting out rn's from canada because nobody wants the pay here, but the cost of living is a heck of a lot less in san antonio, texas than san diego.  I own a 3 bedroom 1800 sq. ft. house on the Northside of SA for less than 100,000.  This is not uncommon.  I don't think you can find a deal like that in San Diego.  San Diego is beautiful and on the ocean and all.  San Antonio has a different climate and it's very historic.  The people are very friendly.  It's in a class all it's own, but you'd probably miss the water.

San Antonio isn't on the coast. You'll have to go to Corpus Christi, or Padre Island and charter a boat there.
