Perched on a bluff with expansive views of Nueces and Corpus Christi Bays, Portland is situated just eight miles across the bays from Corpus Christi. The long Highway 181 Nueces Causeway connects Indian Point in Portland to Rincon Point in Corpus Christi, providing convenient access to the larger city’s job and entertainment options. Portland offers a warm climate year-round, numerous parks, low crime rates, and a small-town atmosphere, all while being near a bustling city of half a million residents. It’s an attractive choice for those seeking a laid-back lifestyle with the conveniences of a major city nearby.

The crown jewel of North Austin is Walnut Creek Metropolitan Park, a large park containing a swimming pool, a playground, numerous hiking and biking trails, picnic shelters, and a BMX Pump Track. North Austin is also home to Austin Community College: Northridge Campus and J.J. Pickle Research Campus, part of the University of Texas at Austin. No matter which part of North Austin you choose for your apartment, you’ll be close to top-rated shops and restaurants, including the Shops at Arbor Walk and the Domain.
