Corpus Christi, TX

COMMENT

A City That Could .... Corpus Christi is a great city that has never really seen its potential. Infrastructure is crumbling but the citizens are addressing that issue now and over the next 25 or so years. Weather is only insufferable three months out of the year and the rest is great. Wind does blow all the time but you get used to throwing away the hair spray and just let Mother Nature give you the style of the day. Corpus Christi is really great for those that like hunting, fishing, windsailing, and the beach. Golf courses are nothing but goat ranches. If you look hard and listen to the locals there are some really good restaurants in town. Plenty of health care with what seems like a hospital on every corner. One even specializes in children and actually serves all of South Texas. Cost of living is below the national average but the neighborhood and design selection of homes are limited. Not enough mid to high end condos but plenty of those you would not retire in. School system is probably about average and private schools are available for those that think they serve their kids better. Crime is a problem but the cops are working hard at it. It does get a lot of play on the nightly news but that may be because they can't think of anything else to talk about. Come on Down and Enjoy South Texas
