Apartments and other rental homes are available in every part of San Antonio. As in most cities, rental choices tend to reflect the neighborhoods in which they are located. Randolph community areas now have large, new, amenity-packed apartment complexes and others are found along major thoroughfares leading into the new far northeast and northwest neighborhoods. Apartment choices in affluent neighborhoods are generally limited and expensive. Apartment occupancy rates -- and rents --have risen with the rapid population growth and increased demand, but continue to be affordable.
The Base Housing office assists military members in locating suitable off-base housing and maintains nondiscriminatory listings of available apartments and homes. Members are advised on current rental costs, commuting time and environmental conditions. Information is available on neighborhoods, leases, deposits, and rental insurance for personal property and sanctioned facilities.
These are the beginning rates for off base rentals. Apartments and houses in the local areas are listed by number of bedrooms. There is more information available when you request a rental listing. There are always apartment move in incentives for active duty military, apartment brochures and some floor plans available with rental rates.
