Located in the southern part of Texas along the Texas Gulf Coast, and tagged as the Florida of Texas, you will more likely people in bicycles and flip flops than those spur-wearing cowboys on their horses, and where the windsurfers, fishing poles, and sailboats create the skyline. It has been known that the residents of Corpus Christi do so, not only the “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere” mentality. However, its coastal blend is more than just a beach; it is a thriving economy, thanks to the Port of Corpus Christi. The city’s cost of living is significantly affordable than the other cities in the United States, which are similar in size. Taxes for both sales and property are a bit higher than the national average. However, Texas is just one of the states which do not have an income tax.
