The section follows Corpus Christi city hall and the Nueces County commissioners court, Corpus Christi ISD, Flour Bluff ISD and Calallen ISD, and the port, petrochemical and military employers that define the regional economy. From Flour Bluff and Calallen to Downtown, South Side and North Beach, neighborhood reporting runs through the city and extends into San Patricio County and Aransas County where a story crosses the line. The Port of Corpus Christi's role as a leading crude oil export terminal has made energy infrastructure decisions, environmental permitting and maritime logistics among the most consequential economic subjects in local coverage.
