Great neighborhood for young adults and professionals. A walkable area with a neighborhood feel so close to downtown Houston! There are plenty of local shops, restaurants and bars within a mile or two as well as options for grocery and convenience stores, gas stations, and big box stores as well. The community has plenty of decent walking and biking paths that go through the neighborhoods and connect them to nearby parks and green spaces. It was such a good choice to start here after moving from out-of-state!
I love this neighborhood! The only thing is that there is always construction on site therefore, the streets are not very good.
The Heights is a great area to live! Lots of young professionals and tons of stuff to do (dining and bars, clubs and activities).
