The picturesque bluffs of North Bay provide fantastic views of both the Nueces and Corpus Christi Bays, just eight miles from the lively city of Corpus Christi. North Bay includes the coastal communities of Doyle and Portland, quaint towns tucked along the shoreline. While you might expect to pay higher rents to live along the coast, rent in North Bay averages about $1,036 for a one-bedroom apartment, only slightly higher than the average rent in Corpus Christi.
Highway 181 Nueces Causeway provides easy access to Downtown Corpus Christi, helping residents reach the city quickly for work or to enjoy the city’s amenities and nightlife. With a year-round warm climate and water access, North Bay is great for outdoor enthusiasts.
Whether it’s a morning walk along the bay at Sunset Lake Park Trails or a day spent exploring local attractions like Heritage Park, renting in North Bay provides the best of both worlds: easy access to a busy city center and a laidback community that feels more like a resort.
