Bella R. best-worst Jul 11, 2025

I'm a 53-year-old marketing manager and Median household income is $65,395, which feels about average for the area. It's a a small town city with about 11,410 people. Rent is about $1,024/month for a decent place. With a population of 11,410, Port Lavaca is a small town. It's changing fast -some good, some not so much. It's a very car-dependent city, for better or worse. Would love some local perspective. The city has invested a lot in new development. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable.
