I don't think the price differential between San Antonio and Austin housing is high enough to offset the level of talent and appeal that Austin (or even Dallas for that matter) currently provides for the tech scene.

Not everyone in tech wants to live in Austin.
In software, isn't San Antonio pretty much a company town (Rackspace)?
Depends on your vertical. There are a number of O&G related startups. And (oddly) San Antonio rates just behind San Diego and Boston for Medical Device innovation (not software, but still, big tech business)
