Living in Tobin Hill

Tobin Hill blends historic character with modern-day amenities. Just north of Downtown and walking distance to the Pearl, this neighborhood has become one of San Antonio’s most sought-after spots. Think tree-lined streets with Craftsman bungalows, vibrant nightlife along the St. Mary’s Strip, and a healthy mix of old-school charm and fresh development. Renters can find everything from renovated duplexes to modern apartment communities.

It’s a great middle ground: close to the action but quieter than Downtown. Parking can be hit or miss, and nightlife can mean late-night noise on the weekends, but for many, that’s part of the appeal. If you want access to the city’s best food, live music, and community events (without feeling totally swallowed by downtown energy), Tobin Hill hits the sweet spot. But high demand = high prices. Rent is on the more expensive side of things here, and apartments lease quickly.
