Farther east of Houston is La Porte, considered for years as a vacation-home
community. Morgan's Point is nearby. As might be expected, weekend
beach homes contribute to the interesting variety of residences here.
One can find homes priced from the $30,000s to multi-million dollar
estates. To LaPorte's south is Bayport where more than 60 companies,
including chemical and petrochemical manufacturers, are located.
