Being from Minnesota, originally, nothing compares to the utra-fine, silky, soft grass up there...I moved to San Antonio and realized that all grass is not considered equal! It's not quite as "lush" as up north, unless you specifically have it "installed" and irrigate it regularly.

When I moved to Texas, I was like most people....I thought it was going to be mostly dry, windy and lots of tumbleweeds and cactii...but that's just the western part. The central and eastern parts have many live oaks and the hill country northwest of San Antonio is beautiful. I am in Florida now, but I'll defend Texas anytime! And yes, housing in San Antonio is ridiculously inexpensive compared to most parts of the country worth living!
