Poor public transport options mean that it’s difficult to commute to downtown Houston, or other cities, unless you own a private vehicle. In this case, travel is relatively quick and easy in all directions, making Stafford a great base. But a private vehicle is not essential to living in Stafford, as you can find most of what you need within walking distance.
One of the most popular areas include the neighborhoods around ‘The Fountains’, on the west side of IS 69. These neighborhoods are close to the shopping mall, as well as a wealth of entertainment venues.

For a less urban area, the Promenade at Stafford Run is also close to several amenities, but also enjoys more green space, as well as access to Highway 90 Alternate.
There are more houses than apartment buildings in Stafford, though more complexes are under construction. This is good for families, but it may be difficult to find somewhere small enough if you’re a young professional.
