Get to Know Klein

Klein is a well-established Houston suburb, benefiting from its decades as a popular alternative to city living, with multiple commercial districts and beautiful, lush neighborhoods with lovely houses on large lots. Though there’s a bit of new construction available, one of Klein’s charms is that most of its housing stock is made up of distinct houses with character — many built during the later parts of the twentieth century, ranging from 1960s through the 1990s. In Klein, tucked-away neighborhoods boast mature trees forming leafy canopies shading expansive lawns, resort-style community pools, and tennis courts. Bound by highways on three sides, Klein has a self-contained feel and residents often stick close to home for shopping and dining. Two neighborhood favorites are Vintage Park Shopping Village, with a mix of independent restaurants and boutiques, and Grand Parkway Marketplace, which houses branches of major chain eateries and shops.

Living in Greater Houston

Like all of Texas, Greater Houston’s history is the story of oil, with suburban towns developed by and for gas and oil executives, with Houston’s Energy Corridor remaining a major employer today. The suburbs of Houston stretch in all directions, from Kingwood, technically inside the city limits, all the way up to and beyond The Woodlands, whose growth and prominence has earned it its own identity, separate from H-Town. These suburbs are young metropolises — towns that grew out of farmland and forest in the past 50 years, with houses, office parks, newly created lakes, and golf courses emerging from rural lands where only cows and feral pigs once roamed. As Houston’s economy has diversified and as the region has created more new jobs, Houston residents have looked farther and farther out for more space to settle. Greater Houston is booming and there’s no better place to call home.
