What is jump start like in Petronila, TX?
We cover FM 665 through Petronila, the only road through Nueces County's oldest and smallest community.
Petronila is the oldest European settlement in Nueces County, founded in 1762 when Capt. Blás María de la Garza Falcón established the Santa Petronila Ranch on Petronila Creek by order of Governor Escandón of Nuevo Santander. Garza Falcón brought his family, cattle, horses, mules, sheep, and goats to this stretch of the Nueces coastal plain and built the first ranching and farming operation in what would become Nueces County. That 1762 founding predates the American Revolution. Today the community has roughly 78 to 89 residents, making it one of the smallest incorporated places in the county, but the land itself is still farmed and the FM 665 road that runs through it still carries the only traffic the community sees. FM 665 was designated in September 1955 as the route from US-77 in Driscoll northward through Petronila toward Corpus Christi. The USGS maintains a stream gauge on Petronila Creek at the FM 665 crossing near Driscoll, which means the creek crossing is real and it floods in heavy rain. When Petronila Creek rises across FM 665, vehicles on the wrong side of the crossing need recovery once the water drops. Cotton and grain farms border FM 665 its entire length, and harvest season from August through November brings grain haulers and farm equipment onto this narrow two-lane road. No towing company operates in Petronila. The nearest service is in Corpus Christi or Driscoll. A broken-down tractor on FM 665 in Petronila is a long-response-time call no matter who you call. This road is covered, and a truck comes out.
