About Driscoll

Driscoll is a quiet, tight-knit community in Nueces County, located about 22 miles southwest of Corpus Christi along U.S. Highway 77. Home to roughly 500 residents, the town got its start in the early 1900s as a railroad stop carved out of local ranchland. Today, Driscoll retains its strong agricultural roots and rural charm, surrounded by wide-open South Texas farmland and sunny coastal plains.

For people looking for peace and quiet within an easy commute of the coast, Driscoll offers a relaxed pace of life with quick highway access to both Corpus Christi and Kingsville. Families are served locally by the Driscoll Independent School District, while nearby institutions like Del Mar College and Texas A&M University-Kingsville provide convenient options for higher education. It is the kind of small town where life moves simply, neighbors look out for one another, and city conveniences and coastal recreation are always just a short drive away.
