Our review
Alvarez leans into San Antonio’s federal-cyber economy (NSA Texas, the Air Force’s cyber command lineage, and the contractor belt around them) with security-focused business programming few schools can staff. USAA’s headquarters adds a massive insurance-and-banking employer. Sub-$30,000 resident cost completes it.
