Meyerland is just outside the loop
Meyerland Area offers a family-friendly bubble just beyond downtown Houston where kids cycle down shaded streets toward playgrounds, local schools boast magnet programs, and nearby shops and restaurants bring fun and convenience. The Brays Bayou passes through the neighborhood with a corresponding hiking and biking trail. It's serene during the dry months but prone to flooding when it rains. "Meyerland is, unfortunately, first and foremost known for the three floods it had from 2015 to 2017. They changed the look of Meyerland. What they didn't change is the neighborhood quality," says Realtor Vikki Evans of Compass – an expert in the region. "The schools are exemplary. People move to go to these schools." Meyerland is just outside Interstate 610, "the loop," but close enough for convenient trips all around Houston. Homes here have seen a 2% appreciation rate since 2023, and homebuyers can still find various prices here to fit different budgets.
Meyerland is the place where big city living meets bayou city nature.

Security is a locked-in fee of around $290; maintenance depends on property value and can range anywhere from $480 to $870.

Meyerland Performing and Visual Arts Middle School, rated B minus by Niche, is also an acclaimed magnet school. Students may also attend Bellaire High School, ranked A by Niche.

There is an amazing Walmart: fresh organic produce, range of kosher, vegetarian, gluten free, vegan options. The NY Bagel Shop is the only good restaurant in walking distance though.

There are a few small gyms, and lots of sports fields at the local parks. Where this area really shines is it accessibility to the hike and bike trail along Braes Bayou. There are lots of good physicians and dentists in the area, and the Houston and Orthodpedic and Spine Hospital is very close. The Medical Center is also pretty close.

Samurai is my favorite restaurant in the area. It provides some of the best sushi I have every eaten and I enjoy sitting at the Hibachi tables. The waiters are friendly and I always look forward to going.
