Texas State's Pac-12 Move Enhances Economic Growth in San Marcos
Property Overview
The Grand at Stonecreek effortlessly combines functionality and elegance, showcasing premium interiors with granite kitchen islands, modern fixtures, stainless steel appliances, and walk-in showers. Community amenities include a contemporary clubhouse, a relaxing pool area with covered seating, a state-of-the-art fitness center with a yoga room, and expansive green spaces featuring yard games and stainless-steel grilling areas.
San Marcos and Hays County are poised to thrive amid the remarkable growth along the southern I-35 corridor, strategically located equidistant between Austin (30 miles north) and San Antonio (37 miles south). The Grand at Stonecreek offers investors a chance to own a premier apartment complex, surrounded by key economic drivers in one of the fastest-growing cities and counties within the Austin MSA.
Well-Maintained Community with Impressive Common Amenities
Texas State University has announced its transition from the Sun Belt Conference to the Pac-12 Conference, effective July 1, 2026. This strategic move is designed to boost the university's national profile and enhance the visibility of San Marcos, Texas. By joining the historic Pac-12, Texas State will gain increased exposure and opportunities in both academics and athletics.
With current enrollment exceeding 40,000, Texas State aims to reach 50,000 students by 2030. This transition aligns with the university's strategic plan to achieve R1 Carnegie research university status by 2027. The move includes substantial investments in athletics infrastructure, such as a $37 million football training facility.
The university anticipates up to a 20% increase in athletics revenue, supported by the Pac-12's media rights deal, which extends through 2031. San Marcos is expected to experience economic growth through increased tourism and national exposure, reflecting Texas State's commitment to advancing its academic and athletic programs.
San Marcos’ Largest Employment Drivers Just Minutes Away
The southern part of San Marcos has increasingly become the core economic engine of the city outside of Texas State University. The area is home to multiple major distribution facilities, big hospitals, regional conference center and large hotels, key retail centers that all provide jobs to thousands of San Marcos residents. Within a 2-mile radius are the HEB Distribution facility (750 jobs), the Central Texas Medical Center (1,270+ jobs), Amazon’s SAT2 Distribution facility (2,200 jobs), and the San Marcos Outlets (3,140 jobs) which account for a significant portion of San Marcos’ employment base. These economic drivers demonstrate the desirability of the area and is representative of the continued growth in the region.
Easy I-35 Corridor Accessibility & Nearby Retail Convenience
Residents at The Grand at Stonecreek have direct access to I-35 that provides swift transportation to central San Marcos and the other major metros and economic drivers that comprise the I-35 Corridor from Austin to San Antonio. Furthermore, there is built-in pedestrian access to Stonecreek Crossing Plaza, Crunch Fitness, and residents are a 5-minute drive away from the Tanger Outlets and San Marcos Premium Outlets, Texas’ largest shopping destination. Proximity to these dynamic retail centers is a significant selling point for prospective tenants.
H-E-B Set to Expand Economic Footprint in San Marcos
H-E-B is set to open its third location in San Marcos, a state-of-the-art 114,000-square-foot store strategically positioned along I-35 and McCarty Lane, less than one mile away from the property. Scheduled to open in December 2026, this facility will feature pharmacy pickup spaces, a dedicated curbside area with parking, and a fuel station. It will also house the first True Texas BBQ restaurant in San Marcos. City officials have highlighted the store's significance in providing a "much-needed" grocery option to the east side of I-35, supporting the rapidly expanding community. The new location is expected to create substantial employment opportunities, with 212 full-time and 238 part-time positions.

Furthermore, there is built-in pedestrian access to Stonecreek Crossing Plaza, and residents are a 5-minute drive away from the Tanger and San Marcos Outlets shopping centers.

Minutes Away From Key Economic Drivers
The southern part of San Marcos has increasingly become the core economic engine of the city outside of Texas State University. The area is home to multiple major distribution facilities, big hospitals, regional conference center and large hotels, key retail centers that all provide jobs to thousands of San Marcos residents. Within a 2-mile radius are the HEB Distribution facility (750 jobs), the Central Texas Medical Center (1,270+ jobs), Amazon’s SAT2 Distribution facility (2,200 jobs), and the San Marcos Outlets (3,140 jobs) which account for a significant portion of San Marcos’ employment base. These economic drivers demonstrate the desirability of the area and is representative of the continued growth in the region.
Furthermore, Amazon has doubled down on the region highlighted by their most recent opening of SAT6 in 2021, a one million square foot Distribution facility, which is just over 11 miles from The Property. The sheer size of this Distribution Facility propels SAT6 to the forefront as largest industrial facility in San Marcos and two-county footprint of Hays and Caldwell County.
Central Texas Population Boom Spurred By Hays County
San Marcos has been the key economic hub that has propelled Hays County’s demographics to being some of the most promising in the state and nation. Of the fastest-growing U.S Counties with a population of 100,000 or more, Hays County took the top spot nationally with 53% growth from 2010-2020 seeing its population increase from 83,960 to 241,067 in 2020, which demonstrates the robust growth occurring in the region outside of the student population closely tied to Texas State University.
Many factors are contributing to this growth including affordability, the “flight-to-the-suburbs” effect with equidistant access to Austin and San Antonio, quality education with lower teacher-to-student ratios, increasing footprint of existing mega-employers and the growing talent pool that Texas State graduates. These factors have translated into incredible occupancy and rent growth numbers at The Property which is backed by an average occupancy of 96% since October 2021 and an incredible rent growth of 13% since January 2022. The future is bright for The Property, San Marcos and Hays County as a whole, while more companies and people continue to move into the region and contribute to future economic growth.
Major Developments Underway In Close Proximity to San Marcos
With a soaring population, affordable housing and a strong labor market, San Marcos has quickly become a hot bed for industrial development highlighted by over $400M+ in capital investments, 3.7M+ square feet of new commercial space and adding 2,900+ jobs to the local labor market.

Central Texas Growth Spurred by Hays County
San Marcos has emerged as a key economic hub, driving Hays County's demographics to become among the most promising in the state and nation. The U.S. Census Bureau ranked Hays County as the number one fastest-growing county with populations over 100,000 nationwide from 2010 to 2019, with a growth rate of 46.5%. Within the next 5 years, Hays County’s population is projected to grow by 11.9%, outpacing the Austin Metro area. This robust expansion extends beyond the student population associated with Texas State University.
Several factors contribute to this growth, including affordability, the "flight-to-the-suburbs" trend with convenient access to both Austin and San Antonio, quality and affordable education with favorable teacher-to-student ratios, the expanding presence of major employers, and the growing talent pool from Texas State graduates. The future looks bright for San Marcos and Hays County as more companies and individuals continue to relocate to the region, driving further economic growth.
