      @@AustinAreaSpecialist Yes, near the beach is my ideal plan. But somewhat open to surrounding areas. Still researching, narrowing my list down. In the past I've experienced beach life in Hawaii and San Diego. I currently reside in Seattle, WA. And I've been so over the city life for a few years now. After exercising patience and determination, this December is my deadline.

    We need high rises like Austin! We need those developers to come and build new mixuse towers downtown.
    There hasn’t been a major development like that in Corpus Christi since the 1990’s.
    Port Aransas has a dangerous two lane highway with 1 passing lane on its 15 mile stretch to Packery. It’s a dangerous road with no lighting on it.
    Several head on fatality wrecks. And no mention of widening it and lighting it. Yet they are building an $800 million dollar housing development called White Cap. That will bring in 2,000 more residents to the Island, but no highway infrastructure to offset the influx.
    They need to make a flyover coming off the JFK Causeway to the 361 highway that goes to Port A. And widen that road to 4 lanes and light the roadway.
    Especially since the Bob Hall Pier will ne built and bringing in more tourist with dated highway infrastructure.

      I’ve never been and stumbled upon this video. I’m not originally from Texas, but Ive been in the Dallas area since 2011. There seems to be so much potential Down that way! What they need to do is build more resort style places, hotels and entertainment! This would be a huge draw for people in the Texas triangle! I am a bit shocked by the home prices there though! I was expecting a little cheaper for it not being one of the major cities in Texas. Then again, I’m from a similar size town in NC and it’s just as expensive, so it is what it is🤷🏾‍♂️

      Gotta - there are no jobs in CC. No high paying gigs at all unless your a RN, Doctor or Dentist. Its a service industry town. For some reason major employers do not want to invest in CC.

      You are so correct. I tried to shoot off fireworks on the Island a few years ago and had a little warning from the CC police. This video is meant to show the difference between the 3 areas. Do you live on the Island?

    The best area in Corpus to live in is on Padre Island across the causeway on the other side of Flour Bluff. During the winter months, you basically have the island to yourself. Live on Padre off Windward Dr at the Nautilus Galleria from 1991-95.

    • @AustinAreaSpecialist
      @AustinAreaSpecialist  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If you want more action with golf carts, people and bars/restaurants then go to Port Aransas. Whitecap is a little quieter with less options. If you're more into fishing, go to Whitecap area. Can't help with Surfside or Galveston.

    • @AustinAreaSpecialist
      @AustinAreaSpecialist  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Well, it’s not the Caribbean for sure. But, the water can get clear when it’s not windy. The water is a shade of green when clear and the sand is tan. The beach is usually pretty clean but there are moments of seaweed throughout the year.
