San Francisco de los Tejas failed because of drought, disease, Native American resistance, and lack of funding and supplies from Spain. The missions along the Rio Grande flourished because they were very close to New Spain and they had the waters of the Rio Grande to use to grow crops.

Missions along the river could stand on their own without a great deal of financial aid from the Spanish government so Spain was less willing to shut them down.
