Nothing in this excerpt supports the premise of the headline.
Something’s no bueno about big rockets in Boca Chica
What did the residents expect? You’ve got to be pretty dim not to comprehend what is coming when someone says they want to build a major rocket factory and launch pad in your community, including eventually launching rockets to Mars.
Per the article, one or two residents or former residents are quoted and one said:
“He picked Texas because it’s a dirty red state where no one’s going to care what he does in a poor border town,” Flores told the paper.
Flores said she “knew when I saw them putting the launchpad right behind the dune line that it was going to be a disaster for our beach.”
“He has destroyed a pristine paradise in the name of saving animals? Come on,” she said, dismissing the world’s richest man as “just a delusional billionaire.”
“They are destroying an ecosystem that has been there for hundreds of years,” Flores added.”
Boca Chica Beach is.
It's not like he derailed a chemical train and intentionally set it on fire...

It is in South Texas, very far from SE.
Please provide a map of the boundaries of SE Texas.
You can’t take 5 seconds to Google it:

Boca Chica beach is about a 7 hour, 475 mile drive to the eastern border with LA.
Boca chica blvd Rt 4 runs near brownsville and the water.
Thanks.
IOW bs.
Find the centroid of Texas.
Draw a east/west line through same.
Draw a north/south line through same.
SE Texas now becomes obvious.
So he promised they would grow. They agreed. Now they’re mad that it’s growing? Do I have that right?
The article conveniently forgets to mention that Elon offered to buy every house in Boca Chica village for three times the appraised value. Only a handfull of people refused the offer. They said it wasn’t enough.
Check the dates of when he started building and when he started launching rockets.
So several years later two people decided to complain?
