Rockport, Ingleside, Portland-which one to pick? (Corpus Christi, Taft: attorneys, schools, living in)

[oceanmom]

Hi Everyone,
Husband and I are getting ready to travel to Texas to start the process of looking into relocation. We've been offered a job on Port Aransas but would like to live in a more rural area. Hopefully at least 5 acres of land. All the info. out there is starting to make me see double so my basic question is for someone living in the Rockport, Ingleside, or Portland area....We have a daughter entering highschool next year. I have researched all areas and now would appreciate some feedback on experiences at these schools. No where is perfect but I would just like to hear some opinions.
Any help is much appreciated.

STAY OUT OF SAN PATRICIO COUNTY - CURRUPT CURRUPT CURRUPT - COUNTY OFFICIALS INCLUDING THE COUNTY JUDGE. He thinks he a Big Fish in a little pond, and there is way to much small town politics, thats why I no longer have a business there and would never spend another dime in that county. I would stay with Corpus Christi, it's a big town with a little town feel, better paying jobs, I love it there. Of course there is your typical big town crime. Flour Bluff is a nice area so is aransas pass, port aransas and rockport.

LOL centraltx obviously you have a bone to pick with Judge Simpson but he's always been fair to me. THe county attorneys are all my friends and not the least bit corrupt.

The OP should see the posts on Rockport and Port A for a comparison. Ingleside however is the best if you want 5-10 rural acres. When the Navy left there was a void but Ingleside seems to be on track to gain new projects. Misti at Century 21 in Ingleside has some nice 10 acre tracts along Sunray they are back off the road and have some tall trees, once inside its like you're far away from civilization but you're actually in walking distance. I had a part in those tracks back in 2001.
Bigger tracts are found in Taft and further from the the coast. Further from the coast means cheaper.

OK Capt so she HAD a bone to pick- Did you see her come back and change it? Perhaps all she wanted to do was dump on San Pat and leave.

Don't you think that your thread bump four+ years later just attracted more attention to her "bone-to-pick" post, made more people aware of her opinion and your apparent sensitivity to it?

Sometimes it is best to let sleeping dogs lie.

Caot I use that slogan and generally agree however I didn't look at the dates on the posts and the one previously from mine made it current.

No, yours is the first post since 2007.

Captain Guess what! BFD!

For some reason it came up and I commented on it. So what if its old, is this important?
