Working remotely from Corpus Christi — my experience
I've been working remotely from Corpus Christi for 12 years now. Here's my take:
The pace of life here is perfect for remote work. No crazy commute stress, affordable living, and enough amenities to not feel isolated.
Cost of living: pretty reasonable
Internet: Fiber available in most areas — no complaints
Coworking spaces: A few good ones downtown
If you're looking for a place to WFH, Corpus Christi is worth considering.

Public transit needs work but they're investing in it. Should improve in next few years.

Respectfully disagree about the cost of living assessment. In my experience, it really depends on your lifestyle.

I've lived in Pine Grove for 5 years and it's decent, has its pros and cons.

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

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

I work in tech and finding a job wasn't hard. Took about 6 months.
