Living in Hitchcock



Hitchcock is a somewhat small coastal city (i.e. on the ocean, a bay, or inlet) located in the state of Texas. With a population of 7,642 people and three associated neighborhoods, Hitchcock is the 305th largest community in Texas. Hitchcock has seen a significant amount of newer housing growth in recent years.

This seems to be the case in Hitchcock, where the median household income is $75,741.00.

It is a fairly quiet city because there are relatively few of those groups of people who have a tendency to be noisy. (Children, for example, often can't help themselves from being noisy, and being parents ourselves, we know!) Hitchcock has relatively few families with children living at home, and is quieter because of it. Renters and college students, for their own reasons, can also be noisy. Hitchcock has few renters and college students. But the biggest reason it is quieter in Hitchcock than in most places in America, is that there are just simply fewer people living here. If you think trees make good neighbors, Hitchcock may be for you.

Hitchcock is also nautical, which means that parts of it are somewhat historic and touch the ocean or tidal bodies of water, such as inlets and bays. Quite often, nautical areas such as these attract visitors and locals who come to enjoy the scenery and various waterfront activities.

Hitchcock is a small city, and as such doesn't have a public transit system that people use to get to and from their jobs every day.
