Huntsville sits along Interstate 45 in eastern Texas about 70 miles north of Houston. This small yet characterful college town is home to Sam Houston State University, giving Huntsville a vibrant and energetic feel. The city isn’t overrun with bar crawl culture, however. Proximity to Sam Houston National Forest also gives Huntsville a prominent outdoorsy feel that many residents appreciate. There’s a diverse mix of rentals ranging from the spacious and single-family variety to more modern apartment communities that are perfect for students. Downtown Huntsville is home to the Sam Houston Memorial Museum, as well as the bulk of the city’s retail and restaurants offerings. Students and outdoor lovers looking for a laid-back locale, look no further.
