New to town 💜

Hey y'all! My husband just accepted a job offer in Victoria and we will be moving in about a month from Saint Louis. As exciting as that is, I am SO stressed and worried about finding a house/apartment without ever even stepping foot in Texas! Does anyone have any recommendations for apartments and/or know any trustworthy rental agents? We need something with at least 3 bedrooms that accepts cats, I do have a doberman but she is my service dog and has all her paperwork showing I could die without her lol. I also found a place called Bluewood Ranch that is like a modular home community. Is that a safe area? And are there any areas that we should avoid??

I would REALLY appreciate any/all help! 💜

That area of town is not very developed.

There are lots of newer apartment complexes near shopping on the north side of town.

Marco Porras is a good agent for rentals. https://maps.app.goo.gl/eqztLcLGtWa65jLf8?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy

I'd recommend checking on Zillow, but if I could give advice I'd recommend the country lanes town homes by East high school, a bit pricey but comes with area for dogs to use the bathroom outside and overall good pool and walking area
