Corsicana is a very close-knit community of 25,000, which is definitely a plus. However, the roads are not always the best. When I lived there, I had to replace several tires because of the constant road construction.


There are some restaurants there, especially if you like Mexican food. The Old Mexican Inn and Cantina is a staple there; it was established in 1941 and is family-owned.


Shopping can be a bit limited, but it does have the College Park Mall.
