Anyone else noticing rent going up fast in Corpus Christi? Over the last year, I feel like prices went up at least 10-15%. I'm paying $1230 for a 1BR which feels okay for the area.
Are there any neighborhoods that are still affordable? Thinking about moving to a cheaper area.

For families, I'd recommend looking at Cedar Hills. Schools are rated well and it's quiet.

Don't sleep on Northside. It's up and coming and still affordable.

Check out the Cedar Hills area. Way more affordable and still close to everything.

Coming from Chicago, the cost of living difference is noticeable. Groceries and gas are cheaper.

Great post! One thing I'd mention is check out the local Facebook groups for neighborhood info. Makes a big difference.
