Located about 10 miles northwest of Downtown Houston, Acres Homes is one of the city’s most historic and influential neighborhoods, shaping the unique culture Houston is known for today. Developed during World War I, the historic neighborhood received its name because the land was sold by the acres as opposed to by the lot. As an enclave for artists, many painters, actresses, rappers, and other celebrities have grown up in Acres Homes. In fact, because of the neighborhood’s affordability and stellar location, many of these celebs who grew up in Acres Homes have developed affordable properties in the community. Today, Acres Homes continues to provide the perfect mix of rural and urban living.

Along with affordable to upscale rentals, Acres Homes has several neighborhood parks, forested streets, and access to a variety of shopping and dining options.
