    "It's close to the water and there are community pools and a boat ramp as well as community parks. It's also close to Formosa, which is the largest employer in the area. "

    "Gated community but people of all walks of life live here. The people arm non-pretentious and ride around on golf carts meeting other neighbors nAmenities are nice. This neighborhood is on Carancahua Bay and it is hard to beat the sunrise and sunsets. Very safe!"

    "Really nothing special about it. Palacios is just one of those small towns where’s there’s nothing to do. sure, there’s the ‘beach’ and everything, but it’s nobody’s dream location to be at. "

    "Very nice quiet fishing village. Lots of cottage homes, great schools with a family oriented appeal. Largest number of bird species sighted in Texas. Abundant number of local stores to support local community.....no shopping malls.. but don't need them here. No fashioistia requirements here. Pretty much a hidden secret. Boat docks for shrimping and fishing community huge. "
