BLS figures put the median pay for managers, all other in San Antonio, TX, at $130,900 a year. It runs 5% above the national median of $124,390 for this occupation — pay here is notably stronger than the U.S. average. The middle 50% land between $99,120 and $164,600 — a 65,480 range that reflects differences in seniority, employer type, and specialization. The average (mean) of $138,230 comes in higher than the median, which usually means a share of high earners is pulling the average up. The catch: San Antonio is roughly in line with the national cost of living (cost index 100 against a 100 baseline), so that headline number buys less than it would elsewhere. On an hourly basis that is about $62.93, useful for comparing contract or part-time offers.

For context, the national median for managers, all other across all U.S. metros in our data is $124,390.
