Neighborhood

With a fitting name, the Greater Hobby area of Houston sits nearly 14 miles southeast of downtown. A fitting name because many residents enjoy more space and lower cost of living than neighborhoods closer to the city, freeing up budgets and schedules. The Greater Hobby Area is a largely residential community alongside the William P. Hobby Airport.

While Downtown Houston is just a 20-minute drive away, there is still plenty to do in the Greater Hobby Area. There’s a diverse selection of restaurants that serve everything from bubble tea to Tex-Mex, and shops selling antiques or sporting gear. Greater Hobby also provides plenty of green spaces and recreation space for residents to enjoy without having to venture far from their apartments, such as Blackhawk Park.

They Changed!

My mom use to live here and the property wasnt great, but now, the staff and experience has been a lot different! I am leasing here now and have been satisfied with everything.

7/19/22
Drugs, Homeless, Shootings!

Lots of empty units with homeless and crackheads living in them. They go in an out of empty units like they own the place. Gunshots almost every day and night, drug deals and prostitution on parking lot. Save yourself a headache.

9/3/20
Don’t waste your time

They give you a run around about the company you work for they should be glad someone even wants to lease there with the looks of this place

8/27/18
No

They are nasty , They say they are going to come fix something but never do . I’ve had a whole in my roof since hurricane Harvey and they never came and even looked at it . My a/c goes out ever other month , my refrigerator was broken for 2 months wen I moved in before they came out looked at it and left and didn’t come back until a few days later . As far as the mice , they never came out to the extermination, I got little holes in my walls . The only good thing is the rent is cheap .

12/12/17
