Yes, kratom is legal in the city of Corpus Christi, Texas.
By big city standards, Corpus Christi is a small town, but it’s a town nonetheless, and it’s a town on the beach, and a population in the Greater Corpus Christi area of over 500,000 people. I believe that qualifies Corpus Christi as a proper city, rather than a town. With that in mind, kratom accessibility should not be an issue in the city of Corpus Christi, Texas.
To date, and we do our best to keep up with this information, no city ordinance, nor any other local, regional, municipal legislation introduced, proposed, or passed that would bans, criminalizes, regulates, or otherwise limits access to the plant, kratom, or mitragyna speciosa, in any way. As a caveat, we are firm believers that children ought not be using kratom, and that adults ought to have the sense to keep their kratom leaf powder out of the hands of those that are not of age, mature enough, or competent to a degree they understand the full scope, and potential of the plant.
Corpus Christi is composed of suburbs and neighborhoods, to which there will be bylaws specific to each area, particularly if it’s a regulated and master planned community. That said, below is a list of neighborhoods, and districts from in and around the Greater Corpus Christi area that to our knowledge, no law has been proposed or passed that affects kratom access in any way. Of course we will keep appraised of any changes to the legal status of kratom in Texas, the cities within, as well as the nation at large.
