San Antonio will continue to see population boom next year, real estate experts say

San Antonio's recent population boom shows no signs of slowing, according to the National Association of Realtors (NAR), which listed the metro among its top 10 "housing hotspots" for 2025. Thanks to an influx of 22,000 people in 2023, the U.S. Census Bureau named San Antonio the city with the biggest population boom that year. The NAR, which didn't rank its "housing hotspots" in order, partly attributes the continued influx into San Antonio to interest rates here, which are lower here than the national average.
