"Now, in Texas, we believe in the rugged individual. Texas may be the one place where people actually still have bootstraps, and we expect folks to pull themselves up by them. But we also recognize there are some things we can't do alone. We have to come together and invest in opportunity today for prosperity tomorrow." (-- Julian Castro, Mayor of San Antonio)
While Julian Castro may have been talking as a whole, he may have very well have been talking about San Juan. Nestled on the western edge of Texas' southern tip, the city of San Juan is located in what is known as the Rio Grande Valley. This city of 33,856 people sits just along the Texas and Mexico border and is best known for its Basilica of our Lady of San Juan, considered one of the largest churches in the Rio Grande Valley. One of the reasons San Juan is so unique and culturally diverse is its close proximity to Mexico. People live, work, shop and travel from one side of the border to the other, which helps to create lasting cultural as well as economic relations between the business men and women that travel between the two countries. Just a few minutes from McAllen, TX, it is an easy day trip into Mexico for a marathon shopping excursion that will have you home by dinner! See more
Studio apartments could offer the best of San Juan living at a less expensive price tag than larger units. Look for the best buildings near entertainment, dining, and public transportation or highway access.
Ask about the square footage of studio apartments in San Juan during your tour. Even a little extra space in another building can offer more room for storage or an additional chair. Consider the layout and what you can accomplish before you sign. You should have enough room for your bed, a small sitting area, and a dining table. You can always get creative and loft your bed to save on space underneath or install a fold-down table or desk that tucks away.
