Neighborhood

Located only five miles from downtown Houston, this neighborhood consists of modern complexes and homes in a variety of styles, filled with people who work in other parts of the city but prefer to live in the outskirts to save on housing costs. There are several schools and parks in the area, making it very family-friendly. This neighborhood on-the-rise has plans for commercial development already in action.

Since Old Spanish Trail-South Union happens to be inside the loop, residents can conveniently access key parts of the city with no issue. The neighborhood is near Texas Medical and the University of Houston. There are tons of retail shops, grocery stores, and restaurants along the Old Spanish Trail and Scott Street. For entertainment, the NRG Stadium and Arena is just a few minutes away showcasing rodeos, concerts, football games, and more. During the holidays, it isn’t surprising to find the neighborhood heavily decorated.
