Long before it became a website, Metro San Antonio Living started as a glossy magazine tucked into coffee shops, office lobbies, and neighborhood businesses around the Alamo City. Back then, it was called Metro San Antonio InFocus, a local San Antonio magazine with a mission to put the people, places, and pulse of San Antonio and its surrounding cities under a closer lens.
As digital media grew and the way people consumed information changed, so too did the magazine’s vision. The team behind Metro San Antonio Infocus recognized that San Antonians wanted more than a snapshot—they wanted an interactive, always-accessible space to stay connected with their community. Moving online also made it possible to keep stories fresher, events more up to date, and coverage broader.

With that shift came a new name and a new identity: Metro San Antonio Living. The change wasn’t just about going digital—it was about expanding the mission. “Living” speaks to the city’s lifestyle, encompassing everything from food and drink to arts, family, real estate, and wellness. The new platform reflects how San Antonians in the metro area live, work, and play, while still keeping the heart of the original magazine—telling the authentic stories of the people who make this city special.
While the glossy covers of Metro San Antonio InFocus may now be part of the city’s publishing history, its legacy lives on in every story told by Metro San Antonio Living. What started as a local magazine with a vision to highlight community pride has grown into a dynamic platform that continues to celebrate the San Antonio Metro Area in all its richness.
