Baytown Overview

Located in the scenic and prosperous Gulf coast region of Texas, Baytown apartments have much more to offer besides seaside views. From shopping to art galleries, lauded schools to a solid economic base, this is one Lone Star State destination well worth considering.

What is the history of Baytown?

Initiated as a settlement close to a much-used ferry system in the mid 1800s, Baytown was originally divided into a trio of separate towns. Consolidating in 1947 to become Baytown officially, the city enjoyed much prosperity as a hub of oil refinery, expanding into steel manufacturing in the 1970s. Today, Baytown remains a titan of the blue collar workforce, home to Exxon-Mobile, Jindal Steel and more.

How is the weather in Baytown?

Considered 'humid subtropical' in nature, residents of apartments in Baytown can expect hot, muggy summers that tend to stretch well into September. The coastal breezes help alleviate some of the humidity on most nights, although they can also accelerate springtime storms as well. Fall tends to be the most pleasant season, and winters are generally mild with little snow accumulation.

How do I get around town?

Much of the public transportation in the city is covered by Harris County Transit, with Greyhound offering extended bus service as well. While the Baytown Airport is largely reserved for private aircraft, the Houston International Airport is a relatively easy commute. Most residents of Baytown rentals claim car ownership, and fishing boats are also very popular among the locals.

What is the Baytown commute like?

I-10 represents the most used highway in the city, linked by Spur 330 and Highway 146. Those commuting to the larger job market of Houston can expect congestion on most days as one draws closer to the city, especially during the grind of 9am and 5pm hours. Baytown itself is typically an easy drive, and traffic can most days be limited to occasional auto accidents or construction delays.

What are the local media outlets?

The 'Baytown Sun' acts as the city's primary print media, covering both national issues and local events. A number of broadcast affiliates are beamed into Baytown apartments on a daily basis from larger surrounding cities, including FOX, NBC and ABC programming, and radio is dominated by political talk, country and classic rock formats.

Why live in Baytown, TX?

Boasting a thriving job infrastructure heavy upon oil refinery, Baytown makes a great place to raise a family. With no shortage of the hospitality that Texas is known for, and jaw-dropping coastal scenery to boot, this waterfront hot spot is a gem of the Lone Star State.

What Baytown landmarks should I see?

The Baytown Nature Center stretches over 450 acres, an amazing sanctuary that collects native and rare species of mammals, reptiles and birds. The Royal Purple Raceway draws spectators from all over the state, presenting pulse-raising motocross events on a regular basis and drawing crowds of up to 40,000.

What is there to do around Baytown?

Grab the kids and do some shopping at the hugely popular San Jacinto Mall, where dozens upon dozens of stores are collected. The Baytown Little Theater is one of the longest running of its kind in all of Texas, presenting dramatic productions for well over fifty years, and local symphony orchestra holds a residency at the local Lee College, offering classical concerts throughout the year.

Any annual festivals or Baytown events to know?

A number of holiday-specific festivals can be found around Baytown with ease, including the annual Halloween parade and a hopping Easter egg hunt. Christmas lights take on a special glow all their own against the shoreline every December, and nearby Houston music fests such as Day For Night and Free Press Summer Fest are hugely popular with a swath of Baytown apartment residents.

Where are the nearby vacation spots?

" Many locals tend to simply take to the water for vacation, with fishing, boating and jetskis all easily available. The big easy fun of New Orleans lies just a few hours drive to the east, and Corpus Christi lies to the south, for those that can't get enough of the beach. The live music mecca of Austin is also an easy weekend adventure, complete with BBQ hot spots like Franklin's and Stubb's. And don't forget about nearby Houston, with its on-the-rise stand-up comedy scene and huge assortment of museums and art galleries."

Where is the best place to move in Baytown?

For those commuting to Houston, living on the edge of the city close to the I-10 on-ramp is generally ideal. Downtown is largely composed of office buildings and city use structures, although Baytown apartments with walking distance to downtown are available for those truly determined. Waterfront property tends to fittingly be a bit more expensive, but Baytown rentals cater to all economic levels and lifestyles. Start your search for your next great place to call home today!
