October 04, 2024

Looking for a new place to call home? Write down everything you want, then head to Fulshear. Why Fulshear? According to the U. S. Census Bureau, it is the second-fastest growing city in the nation —which means a lot of people have noticed its many attractions. Here are the top 10 reasons people are relocating to Fulshear:  

Room to Roam

Fulshear is nestled just west of Houston in an area that — despite its rapid growth — still offers plenty of room to roam. Here you will discover gently sloping hills and expansive prairie. Stunning views and a sense of open space. You never get the sense you are living in the suburbs. It’s just open skies above and green space below.

Many Choices

Whether you’re looking for a cozy starter home or a luxurious estate, Fulshear has diverse options to meet your needs. These options are found in the many master-planned communities that dot the area. If you want more than just a home, look for one like Cross Creek West that features modern homes equipped with amenities such as pools, walking trails and community centers.

Excellent School Districts

Two award-winning school districts serve Fulshear. Katy ISD is rated among the top 20 school districts in Texas by Niche. It is considered the No. 1 school district in Houston. Equally as strong, Lamar Consolidated ISD is home to National Principals of the Year, Gates Millennium Scholars, National Blue Ribbon Schools, Rodeo Art Grand Champions and state athletic champions. Both districts offer a well-rounded curriculum, access to honors and Advanced Placement courses, plenty of extracurricular activities and caring teachers.

An Easy Commute

Whether you need to get to Houston's Energy Corridor or downtown Houston, Fulshear’s location offers convenient access to major employers via Interstate 10 and the Westpark Tollway. A shorter commute means Fulshear-area residents can enjoy the benefits of working in a major metropolitan area while returning home to peace and tranquility.

There’s a Strong Sense of Community

If you are looking for friendly neighbors who are sure to look out for each other, you want to move to Fulshear. The city hosts many events and festivals throughout the year that help foster connections between residents and creates a welcoming atmosphere.

It’s Easy to Get Outdoors

Fulshear’s proximity to parks and recreational areas makes it easy to get outdoors. The city features several well-maintained parks perfect for picnics, walking trails and family gatherings. Nearby attractions like Brazos Bend State Park offer hiking, biking and birdwatching opportunities.

Low Tax Rates

Fulshear’s tax rates are lower than those found in many other areas in Texas, making it an attractive option for people looking for an enhanced quality of life without having to dig deep into their wallets.

Growing Economy

Fulshear’s economy is strong and vibrant due to population growth, highly educated residents and a high median household income. The growth has fueled an increase in the number of local businesses serving the community, as well as interest from retail chains and institutions of higher education.

Lots of Shopping and Dining

Nearby at our sister community, Cross Creek Town Center is a 10-acre lifestyle center featuring combined retail, restaurant and office space as well as a large outdoor area designed for entertainment and gatherings. Residents can also easily access destination shopping centers like Katy Mills and LaCenterra at Cinco Ranch.

Plenty of Attractions

There’s plenty to do in the Fulshear area. Typhoon Texas is a popular spot for cooling down in the summer. Dig World attracts kids who want to operate heavy machinery, including skid steers, UTVs and much more.
