College Station City-Data
If you haven’t seen the College Station City-Data site, check it out.
City-Data is a site that has compiled information from several different sources on just about anything you want to know about a city. The city page includes maps, stats like race, income, education, employment and unemployment, geographical data, crime data, sex offenders, weather, schools, radio and TV stations, zip codes and area codes among other things. It’s a great site to check out if you are considering moving to an area.
