The county seat of Nueces County,[6] it also extends into Aransas, Kleberg, and San Patricio Counties. It is 130 miles southeast of San Antonio. Its political boundaries encompass Nueces Bay and Corpus Christi Bay. Its zoned boundaries include small land parcels or water inlets of three neighboring counties.

قـُدِّر تعداد المدينة بأنه 320,434 في 2014، مما يجعلها ثامن أكثر المدن تعداداً في تكساس. The Corpus Christi metropolitan area had an estimated population of 442,600.[1] It is also the hub of the six-county Corpus Christi-Kingsville-Alice Combined Statistical Area, with a 2013 estimated population of 516,793. ميناء كورپس كريستي هو خامس أكبر ميناء في الولايات المتحدة. المنطقة يخدمها مطار كورپس كريستي الدولي.

The city's nickname is "Sparkling City by the Sea", particularly featured in tourist literature.[7]

التاريخ

خريطة كورپس كريستي في 1887

كورپس كريستي أسسها في 1839 Colonel Henry Lawrence Kinney and William P. Aubrey as Kinney's Trading Post, or Kinney's Ranch. It was a small trading post that sold supplies to a Mexican revolutionary army camped about 25 mi (40 km) west.[8] In July 1845, U.S. troops commanded by General Zachary Taylor set up camp there in preparation for war with Mexico, where they remained until March 1846. About a year later, the settlement was named Corpus Christi and was incorporated on 9 September 1852.[9]

معركة كورپس كريستي نشبت بين 12 أغسطس و 18 أغسطس 1862، أثناء الحرب الأهلية الأمريكية. United States Navy forces blockading Texas fought a small land and sea engagement with Confederate forces in and around Corpus Christi Bay and bombarded the city. Union forces defeated Confederate States Navy ships operating in the area, but were repulsed when they landed on the coast.[10]

The Port of Corpus Christi was opened in 1926, and the Corpus Christi Naval Air Station was commissioned in 1941.[8]
