Just 15 minutes southeast of downtown Houston, quiet, friendly, tree-lined Magnolia Park sits near the Houston Ship Channel in the East End district. Interstates 10, 45, 69, and 610 allow easy commuting in and out of the neighborhood to Austin or Dallas. The neighborhood's combination of natural scenic beauty, culture, and amenities add to its appeal.
Buffalo Bayou encloses most of Magnolia Park. Take in the view of the neighborhood with bayou tours on Buffalo at Sam Houston Boat Tour and then tee off at Gus Wortham Golf Course in nearby Greater East End. On a sunny day picnic, you can find locals bonding at DeZavala Park which has a pool, sports fields, and courts. Family and friends here are close and host community events throughout the year. Afterward, restaurant-crawl your way through Magnolia Park's stellar eateries, including popular Texas chains and local restaurants with Latino cuisine. Stop in El Jardin Restaurant for authentic menudo, considered some of the best in all Houston, along with occasional mariachi music.

Prominently Hispanic community with a variety different ethnic stores. Pretty safe during the day but probably not the safest area to commute alone at night. Very family friendly environment, many parks in the area.

Older neighborhood but I love living here. Older residents have lived in this neighborhood for a long time. This area has a bad rep but I have lived here for 16 years and I feel safe. Love living in the hood.

There needs to be more police surveillance. Crime and drugs are prevalent in the neighborhood and there needs to be more done to prevent it. There is a halfway house on the next block, so it is not very reassuring for safety reasons.

I personally wouldn't live here because it's an okay area but there are way better places that I would like to live.
