Corpus Christi is a city in southern Texas and a port of entry on Corpus Christi Bay, just southeast of the mouth of the Nueces River. It is the seat of Nueces County, though some parts of the city are in Kleberg and San Patricio counties. It has a landlocked harbor connected to the Gulf of Mexico by Aransas Pass, a break in the string of low sand islands stretching along much of the state’s coast. Smaller vessels ply the Intracoastal Waterway between the islands and the mainland. The city is a major shipping point and an important center of petroleum and natural-gas processing, the hub of a region with thousands of producing wells. Other industries include primary and fabricated metals, electronic equipment, and processed agricultural goods. Aircraft repair and maintenance and commercial fishing are also important industries. The city is the site of the large Corpus Christi Naval Air Station and a United States Army depot. The area is served by the Corpus Christi International Airport.

This major deepwater seaport is a fun place to visit and a good base for exploring Padre Island and other attractions. With a population of just under 300,000 people, Corpus Christi is the eighth largest city in Texas, but it doesn’t feel like a city. Possibly because of its waterfront and mild weather, Corpus Christi has an appealing small-town atmosphere. Visitors will want to check out the museums, aquarium, and our favorite stop here, the USS Lexington aircraft carrier. Then hit the beach for some serious R&R.

The City of Corpus Christi is leading the nation through its implementation of a citywide cellular WiFi network. This network is principally being implemented as part of an automated meter reading (AMR) capital improvement project.  The City recognizes the significant value of economical broadband access for public safety, emergency response, public works, education, the community, and the local economy. The city is currently changing the WiFi network as it is built it out to cover all 147 square miles of the City.
