Known as the “livable forest,” Kingwood lives up to its long-time nickname. With bike and walking trails winding through the piney woods, residents can enjoy natural beauty daily. Just 30 miles northeast of downtown Houston, and only 10 or so miles from Beltway 8, Kingwood has one foot in the forest and one in the city. That’s perfect for people who appreciate natural beauty and metropolitan sophistication all in one.
Kingwood was established in 1970 and its first village was opened a year later. Like many Houston suburbs, it grew slowly at first, with only a few thousand people calling it home in 1976. Its population grew quickly in the 90s, going from about 19,400 residents in 1990 to 37,400 in 1992.
For years, Kingwood fought annexation into Houston, and even after the battle was over, it was still a topic of discussion at the state legislature. There, Kingwood residents successfully convinced the legislature to regulate future annexation attempts, so that other municipalities couldn’t be annexed in the same way as Kingwood. Perhaps more than any other Houston-area community, people from Kingwood are more likely to consider themselves residents of their community first, and Houstonians second.
Kingwood was a master planned community from the start, so it has a number of dedicated shopping centers, as well as numerous boutique shops and specialty stores. Some of the most popular shopping centers include:
Kingwood’s most notable natural feature may be its forests, but it’s not the only interesting piece of nature in the area. Just a few miles southeast is Lake Houston, with more than 18 square miles of boating and fishing opportunities.
Kingwood’s natural beauty lends itself to plenty of outdoor activities. Beyond the forests and the lakes, there is also The Clubs of Kingwood, which is one of the largest golf clubs in the world. In fact, it was where the 1996 movie Tin Cup was filmed. The Oakhurst Golf Club and the Walden on Lake Houston Golf and Country Club are also nearby, so there’s a lot of golfing available for enthusiasts.
Kingwood provides strong educational options to its residents. In addition to its excellent public schools, Kingwood also has several private schools of note, including a pair of Montessori schools (through 6th grade) and a branch of the Lone Star College system.
Kingwood also has an impressive public library that was built in 2010. It spans more than 35,000 square feet and is centrally located.
Kingwood has a well-earned reputation for its peace and quiet, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t plenty to get excited about. There’s a lot to do and see in and near the city, including:
