As I drive around San Antonio, especially the far NorthWest (along I-10) and the West (along U.S.90) one would not know there is a housing slump. The amount of building going on is amazing. Perhaps San Antonio is not suffering as much as the rest of the U.S. However as I say this, I think of the utility infrastructure, especially water. The San Antonio and hill country have been in an almost severe drought condition for a number of years and while that may pass, the increasing number of units will forever change the amount of water needed. The water authorities don't seem to have any concrete answers either.

Hi James & welcome to Active Rain. We have definitely been in a serious slump where I live, and the construction continued anyway. I certainly don't understand why.

A Big Texas Style Welcome to Active Rain. We heard the news via Shirley and we rushed right over to say glad you are here. We are a great bunch over here in the Texas area and you will find just as many nice folk everywhere in Active Rain. Drop by and see us sometime, our group is Hill Country Inspector and we mainly hang out with our Texas friends but also stray to other places from time to time. If you ever need anything let us know.

Howdy there Jim
Will I see two more of my friends made it by to visit ya. San Antonio, sure has been holden it own. And I'm sure glad that it has been. I have a lot of friends there, that would be hard prss if-en it wasn't.
Its bad enough, with the lack of rain, go-en on so much. They may yet get it worked out. Texas folks never give up. Just like Missouri folks don't.
