Commute

Buda apartments by the drive to Downtown San Antonio.

The southbound run down I-35, for anyone splitting time between the two cities. It is a long drive and the table does not pretend otherwise.

The drive is not the deciding factor here.

4 minutes separates the closest Buda community from the furthest, which over a year of commuting is not enough to override a rent difference or a floor plan you prefer. Pick on the apartment. The table is below anyway, since 4 minutes is still 4 minutes twice a day.
