The Sabal Palm Sanctuary, located within South Point, preserves one of the rarest ecosystems in the U.S., offering over 3 miles of trails and a historical museum. Despite its rural charm, residents drive to Brownsville for essentials, with H-E-B and Walmart located about 7 to 10 miles away. Dining options include Otro Rollo Taqueria and Liam’s Steakhouse for special occasions. The neighborhood has seen growth due to SpaceX developments at nearby Boca Chica, attracting new residents seeking a short commute. Public transportation is limited, with sporadic bus service along S. Browne Avenue, making driving necessary for most errands. Brownsville South Padre Island International Airport is just 6 miles away, providing flights to major Texas cities.
