Katy

Combining suburban bliss and modern conveniences, the growing city of Katy is a sought-after home for those looking for extra space to raise a family or a place to simply get away from it all. Katy is located at the point where Harris, Fort Bend, and Waller counties converge. This gives residents the flexibility to pursue whatever lifestyle they prefer, whether it’s paying a visit to the big city’s finest haunts and attractions or sampling the vibrant local restaurant scene closer to home.

Homes in Katy cost anywhere between $250,000 to $800,000, with the housing market mostly consisting of single-family homes and a few townhomes and condo units. You’ll find several residences located on generous lots with plenty of space for a lawn and a host of outdoor amenities.
