The good news is San Antonio is doing better than the rest of the country.  Unfortunately, much of Texas is still hurting from the recession.  See Texas Workforce Commission’s recent report.  Unemployment in San Antonio decreased in December from 7.0% to 6.8.  But, unemployment in Texas went up from 8% to 8.3.  Nationally, the unemployment rate was 10.0% in December.  So, Texas is doing better than the country and San Antonio is still doing better than the rest of Texas.
