Living in Katy, TX
Life in Katy Texas can be a great one for many people. With lots of real estate options, safe neighborhoods, a prime location and tons of restaurants, shops and things to do, it’s a top choice for many Houston-area families.
Just like any city, there are pros and cons to living in Katy. Some of the biggest advantages come with how new the area is. Homes are new, neighborhoods are new and schools are new, so the city is very well kept and pretty. Katy is also known for its great school district, so it’s a top choice if you have little ones in the house.
On the downside, Katy is prone to flooding, like many other areas of Houston area. Flood insurance is a must should you decide to own a home in the area. Another downside of Katy – at least of the homes in the area – is that they can be quite pricy. This is simply because of the high number of people moving to the area and the demand for local housing.

There are loads of fun things to do with kids in Katy. Main Event and Dave & Busters both offer an arcade, bowling, and other family fun, while Top Golf is a great choice for the older kids. There’s also the Katy Contemporary Art Museum, which charges just $2 for a child’s admission year round.
If you’ve got furry friends, Millie Bush Bark Park and the City of Katy Dog Park are both free places to take your pet for a little fun in the sun.

Want to impress your significant other? You’re in luck. Katy is full of top-notch restaurants – like Texas Roadhouse or Red Lobster – as well as a number of movie theaters where you can catch a flick. Try the AMC Katy Mills 20, the Cinemark 19, or stop by the Alamo Drafthouse, and see a movie, get drinks and grab dinner all at once. If you’re into beer, stop by and check out Katy’s very own brewery, No Label.
