I just went on weather.com to check the 5 day forecast for San Antonio and when I was keying in the name in the search these also came up.

San Antonio, Florida
San Antonio, New Mexico
San Antonio, Puerto Rico
San Antonio, Argentina
and a San Antonio Heights, California

I had no idea, but I do love learning something new everyday.

Has anyone been to any of these other San Antonio's?

I once spent a couple of days in towns called Ayamonte (Spain) and Vila Real de Santo António (Portugal). Both across the border from each other.

I've been to San Antonio, Philippines. Not far from the Subic Bay Naval Station, where I did a tour of duty in the late 80's

New Mexico----aint missing much...lol


I luv googling things too
A long time ago a self proclaimed Simpson officianado told me that Springfield was the most common city name & found in every state. Later I worked in a job that put me in position to study the dynamics of city growth & I learned that Greenville is actually found in over 40 states (Springfield is not). Since I had already been to 3 cities with such a name, whenever I travelled close enough to one, I'd make a detour to go. There are 3 things I learned. 1) the only thing they have in common is the name 2) it's not always green in greenville & 3) people who live in these do not care that's its the most popular name for a city.
I think Arlington is also a popular name, I've seen it on maps pretty often.
