Enjoy a San Antonio Picnic!
San Antonio is the second-largest city in the
state of Texas and the seventh largest city in the United States.
Located in South Texas, the city is a cultural and geographical
gateway into the American Southwest. San Antonio is the seat of
Bexar County with a population of 1,328,984 as of the 2007 U.S.
Census estimate. It was the fourth-fastest-growing large city in the
nation from 2000-2006. Its metropolitan area has a population of
2,031,445 based on the 2008 U.S. Census estimate, making it the
28th-largest metropolitan area in the U.S and third in Texas (behind
Dallas and Houston).
San Antonio was named for the Portuguese St.
Anthony, whose feast day is on June 13, when a Spanish expedition
stopped in the area in 1691. The city has a strong military presence—it
is home to Fort Sam Houston, Lackland Air Force Base, Randolph Air
Force Base, and Brooks City-Base, with Camp Bullis and Camp Stanley
right outside the city.
Furthermore, Kelly Air Force Base (now Port
San Antonio) operated out of San Antonio until 2001, when the
airfield was transferred over to Lackland AFB and the remaining
portions of the base became an industrial/business park. The
decision to close Kelly and consolidate its resources came from the
1995 BRAC. San Antonio is also home to the South Texas Medical
Center, the only medical research and care provider in the South
Texas region.
Famous for its River Walk, the Alamo, Tejano
culture, and home to the SeaWorld San Antonio and Six Flags Fiesta
Texas theme parks, the city is visited by approximately 26 million
tourists per year according to the San Antonio Convention and
Visitors Bureau. San Antonio is also home to the first museum of
modern art in Texas, known as the McNay Art Museum.
