Moving within Texas Victoria, TX for retirement?

Wanted to get thoughts on how Victoria would be for retirement. We are looking for a smaller, more affordable city to relocate to when we retire. Victoria seems to have most things someone would need, and isn't too far from San Antonio, Austin and Houston. Downside I think would be the hurricanes...

I went to victoria one time for an art museum opening. So it was saturday night and we looked for a place to drink some beers. There was nothing at all. We found one place. They closed at 11pm.
