FAQ · 77905

Common questions

Who is my electric utility in ZIP 77905?

AEP Texas Central (AEPTC) OR Victoria Electric Cooperative is the utility that delivers electricity and restores outages in 77905 (Victoria). You choose a Retail Electric Provider (REP) for your plan and bill. The rate table at the top of this page shows today's lowest 77905 plans at 500, 1,000 and 2,000 kWh, and you can switch through WattKarma (PUCT broker #BR220202) at no cost.

Who do I call when the power goes out?

Match the provider on your bill: AEP Texas 866-223-8508 or VEC 361-582-5555. Your REP (if any) does not restore poles/wires. Downed line: 911 + electric provider.

How do I start water service when I move into 77905?

Provider varies by street in Victoria / 77905 (small city, WSC, or unincorporated). Do not assume Corpus Christi 311, Victoria 361-485-3400, or Port Lavaca service outside those footprints.

Who handles trash pickup in 77905?

City contract vs private hauler is address-dependent. Confirm with city hall, HOA, or landlord. Multifamily properties often use private haulers.

Who provides natural gas, and what if I smell gas?

CenterPoint Energy (Entex) South Texas is the typical LDC for many Victoria addresses. Start/transfer: 800-427-7142. Suspected leak: leave immediately, then call 911 and CenterPoint 888-876-5786 from a safe place. Natural gas is not retail-choice like electricity.

Is electricity regulated or competitive here?

AEP Texas Central parcels: delivery regulated via the TDU; energy supply is competitive via REPs. Victoria EC members generally cannot shop REPs.

Does Victoria use Houston, Dallas, or Corpus Christi 311?

No—Victoria / Port Lavaca / Crossroads communities do not use Houston 311, Dallas 311, or Corpus Christi 311 for local utilities. Life-threatening emergencies still dial 911.

Which internet providers serve 77905?

Common Coastal Bend / Crossroads options include AT&T Fiber, Spectrum, Frontier, Sparklight, and Suddenlink/Optimum where built; availability thins in rural Goliad/DeWitt/Calhoun parcels and on barrier islands. Use each provider’s checker with your full street address.

How do I tell competitive AEP wires from a co-op?

Look at your electric bill logo/payee and ESI ID. AEP Texas delivery bills show the TDU with a separate REP. Victoria EC, Jackson EC, and Karnes EC bills are from the cooperative (no REP shopping). Match outage numbers to your bill.
