Freeport, Texas, is a coastal city with a population of about 12,000. It’s known for its strong industrial base, particularly in petrochemical processing and maritime activities.

This economic backdrop can provide ample business opportunities, especially in related sectors. Given its prime location on the Gulf Coast, Freeport is a hub for fishing and boating industries.

Its proximity to major ports also enhances its appeal for logistics and export-oriented businesses. However, the area is prone to hurricanes, which is a crucial factor for disaster preparedness planning.
