Overview
Katy has grown from a small town into one of the most popular suburbs in Greater Houston, with master-planned communities like Cinco Ranch, Cross Creek Ranch, Elyson, and many more.
Lifestyle
Community amenities (pools, trails, lakes, clubhouses) are a big draw, along with quick access to the Energy Corridor and west Houston via I-10.
Investor's take
Newer homes mean fewer surprise repairs, which helps rental cash flow. But total tax rates (including MUDs) can be high, so we'll compare the full tax picture, not just purchase price.
Schools
Most of the area is served by Katy ISD, with some neighborhoods in other districts. Always verify school assignments directly with the district.
