Overview

§ 01

Wake up to Gulf breezes and spend your days enjoying everything Crystal Beach has to offer. This cleared 5,000-square-foot lot provides a great setting for a future beach getaway, custom coastal home, or RV retreat. Located near a beach access road, the shoreline is only a short distance away, making spontaneous beach days, fishing trips, sunrise walks, and evening golf-cart rides part of everyday life. When you are not on the sand, explore nearby restaurants, live entertainment, local boutiques, marinas, golf, and the many attractions found throughout the Bolivar Peninsula. Secure your own piece of the coast and create a gathering place where family traditions, relaxing weekends, and unforgettable beach memories can begin.

MUD Disclosure (§49.452)

§ 03 · Data moat

● §49.452 Notice

Not in archive

This MUD is not yet in our §49.452 archive. We'll add it on request.

Texas Water Code §49.452 requires districts to publish annual notices with tax rate, bonded indebtedness, and assessed value. Most Harris-area MUDs publish these; a handful managed by Inframark do not.

Request this notice

● What this tells you

The §49.452 notice is the only public document that lists a MUD's exact tax rate, outstanding bond debt, and the assessed value used to compute your taxes — direct from the district, not the MLS. If the district is newer or has more bonds outstanding than its neighbors, your effective tax rate will be higher here than just across the street.
