It is a town of about 20k people. Houston is 80 miles one direction and Corpus Christi 130 miles the other way. Bay City is about 18-20 miles from the Gulf of Mexico where there's a great beach, fishing, etc. You can get wonderful seafood and Mexican Food in that area. Plus, no state taxes...
You said it all ladydukes perfectly. I'm In Corpus, hate the humidity & the wind but otherwise I love it even though I don't care for the beach much anymore...got to "old" for that sandy gritty feeling lol
